She felt a pang of disappointment about the delay, though she nodded, still eager to hear whatever Hydra wanted to tell her about the North Star. Both of them sort of froze at the sounds coming from Galaxy's stomach, though thankfully her sister didn't attempt to force more food on her.

Suddenly, Galaxy thought of her recent conversation with Charon regarding spirit-stars. Death was still an ambiguous concept to the youngster, though something clicked in her head. If she didn't eat, she might die, which meant she would float up into the sky to become a spirit-star. Although that didn't sound so terrible in theory, she distinctly remembered asking Charon, "Can you climb up there and visit with them? The spirit-stars?" and her father answering, "I often wonder about that myself, but I haven't found a place tall enough to reach them just yet."

The thought of being far away from her family, unable to visit with them, dismayed Galaxy. Her ears fell back and she swallowed thickly. "I will," she said to Hydra's gentle command, her voice quiet but filled with determination. Recovery wouldn't be easy or quick, but this conversation—especially reading between the lines—had more or less scared her straight.

Finito? :)
