Seren
Embracing the goddess was akin to leaning into starlight itself. Soothing and empowering, enhancing all that she was of dreamer and dancer, brave and reckless fool wrapped in one. With Safrin's boundless love on her side, was there really anything she couldn't do? Was there really anything else she needed?
In the end, that was what she had to enter the world to discover for herself.
"This will always be home," she murmured into her mother's shoulder and savored a last lingering moment of weightless light, dark, of honeysuckle and lilac and the comfort of being utterly and completely safe. "I love you too, Mother. I'll come see you again soon."
Letting go was sinking into the chill of mortality once more. Embracing gravity, Seren took a step back into the portal, her eyes fixed upon the goddess for as long as she remained visible. Yet her thoughts were already turning towards the world, and her other parent whom she had not seen for so long.
In a glimmer of stars the young demigoddess sank into the portal. Like a streak of midnight the large dragon circled the goddess in a solemn farewell, then shot after the starchild. A moment later they were both gone.

I'm ready to start the conquest of spaces
Reaching the starlight and silver fields
Reaching the starlight and silver fields
