Lagan sat on a patch of moss at the rendezvous point, lazily playing kick rock by himself. He used to play this game with Liffey and Eljay, but now he had to play alone. He really missed his siblings. Sure he had Gannet and Raven, and his mom and dad and all his babies, and all his new friends too, but it wasn't the same. It was weird without Eljay, but it was even weirder without Liffey. Liffey had been there from the beginning, literally in the womb with him. It seemed there had been womb for three in Finley, but only room for one in the Caldera.

Lagan wasn't in the best mood at the moment, thinking about his lost family members. Something in Lagan's thoughts drew his attention away from the pebble at his feet, and he glanced up at the sky. Just as he did, he saw a huge light streaking past. It was beautiful, twinkling into and out of existence in a moment. Lagan's mouth fell open in awe as he watched more follow it. Some flew directly above him and cast a glow on the ground around him. Lagan's grey fur both glowed and swayed in the light breeze that touched the night.

His night was immediately better, but still he couldn't help but think of Liffey. Liffey loved the stars, this was her thing. She used to try and tell him which stars were which. He wondered if some of the ones she had told him about were falling right now. Probably not. He wished she were here to experience this with him, but it made him smile to know that somewhere, she was probably just as awestruck as he.
