Heron Lake Plateau under stars
a determination so powerful it could turn the sky storm black

Everyone had crowded close to one another and had preoccupied themselves with the stars, but Ceara's gaze was trained on the gathering.  She wished that she could feel connected to them.  She wondered if out there, somewhere, @Tuathal was looking at the same meteor shower and thinking of her.  She wondered if her mother and father missed her.  She wondered if they'd had any more kids yet to replace their youngest that had flown the roost.

She wasn't needed here anymore.  The big happy family had each other, and Ceara?  She could fend for herself, she guessed.  The gunmetal bite of her eyes dropped to the ground, and she turned without another word and departed the scene.  Nobody'd miss her here.

ring the bells that still can ring
forget your perfect offering
there is a crack in everything
that's how the light gets in
