tears stung her throat, her eyes. it was not that valmúa was harsh, for teya felt as though her poor measure warranted it. she simply did not understand how she might create, her world a tumbleweed nesting at best.

"i know stars," teya breathed, more to the remembered sound of his chastisement than valmúa. and she gazed silently through the veil now, jaw tightened against her own grief.
