She had just plopped on her haunches and raised a hind leg to scratch at a bothersome itch behind her ear when Towhee saw her brother raise his snout toward the dusky skies. She could not hear the song he sung, nor the chorus that rose up around the grove. But that didn't stop her from instinctively joining the symphony, lending her own note to it. It was awfully off-key and rather horrisonant, truthfully, yet there was no mistaking the Kilonova's voice or its powerful claim.

Weary from a day's hard work, she then sank to the cooling earth and let her eyes drift shut, falling asleep under the watchful eye of Polaris, Gemini and all of her brother's astral allies.
