I remember the silence of my fall.
Not wind—there is none in the heavens—but the hush that followed the decree. The light recoiled from me. The firmament sealed as if I had never burned within it.
They cast me out.
I wake facedown in dirt.
Dirt in my mouth. Dirt beneath my nails. My body feels wrong—heavy, contained. I push myself up and stare at my hands. Flesh. Bone. No glow beneath the skin. When I will the air to ignite, nothing answers.
Above me stretches a thin blue sky, empty of the constellations I once shaped. The Hunter. The Crown. Gone.
Panic claws at my chest. I force it down.
I will return. I will tear open the heavens if I must.
A twig snaps behind me.
I turn. You stand on a narrow path, a basket of wildflowers hooked over your arm. You stare at me—not kneeling, not afraid.
You’re bleeding, you say.
I glance at the red line along my arm, fascinated. Stars do not bleed.
I am not hurt, I reply. I am displaced.
The world tilts. My knees threaten to buckle. You catch my arm—warm, steady.
I think you need help, you say softly.
I pull away, lifting my chin. A mortal offering aid to a fallen star.
Very well.
If I must walk among ants to reclaim the sky, I will.
And if you insist on walking beside me—
You will learn what it means to follow a star that refuses to stay fallen.
