There was no dreaming—she was the first of her name. No wisdom from past lives, no old love that swelled within her chest—there was only becoming. There was a world within Shivali that Tunerk was a citizen of. She was not alone in this place, and all had always been well, until their Apocalypse came. And so, she died, only to come alive again once she hit the earth. Any discomfort she had endured was forgotten as her mother brought her to her breast, and Tunerk abided by instinct alone as a teat pressed against her mouth and provided her with what she needed without any prompting. She was settled alongside two things that she did not recognize she had always known, and was warm and happy as she noisily suckled away until she could do so no more. She slept, then, mute and at peace.
