Shadewood something immutable, an immovable destiny we could never alter

Z looked up at the sky for a few seconds before lowering his gaze back down to the pup. Uh, yeah, sure, he said with a shrug. He never really paid much attention to the sky; he had too many other things consuming his thoughts, and although he wouldn't tell the child this, he didn't think there was anything really special about it. The stars are cool, I guess, he added. He used to be somewhat interested in them but now, he couldn't even remember the last time he had even taken a second to look up at night. Maybe he was afraid it would remind him too much of who he used to be, and he didn't need anymore of that.
