In Their Own Story

The dunes had given way to ice, and the ice had given way to a cave so dark the Traveler could not see their own hands. But ahead—always ahead—the star breathed. Not flickered. Breathed. In. Out. A slow, patient pulse like a sleeping heart. The Traveler walked. The cloak, heavy with every glow gathered across the desert and the ruined towers, trailed behind like a slow river of gold. There was no sound. No wind. Just the faintest hum of the light, and the feeling—unnameable, wordless—that this was the last step, and the last step was the only one that mattered. The Traveler reached out. The star did not burn. It welcomed. And the darkness, which had been a wall, became a door, became a sky, became nothing at all.
