   Summary

   Many people look to the stars. In moments of weakness, or perhaps contemplation. Desperation.

   One young soul looks to a sky obscured by ever-present smoke, rising from the burning world below his feet. Imagining stars he has never seen; a moment of weakness before the storm of unexpected change begins. Before the cycle chains its shackles around his neck.

   Another looks to a shattered moon surrounded by glittering spots of light, wondering if the sun she has never truly met is the only soul within the cosmos. Wondering which is more destructive: The impulsive desires of mortals or the unrestrained love of the sun.

   A third, much older soul looks to the black void in his memory, holding tight to the memory of a home he has been stripped of the key to. Closing his eyes against light enough to drown out the sun; desperately clinging to what little light he has left in hope that he stays afloat.
