With a hum of contentment, Safrin watches the star rise. The darkness above envelopes it as it joins the multitude of others. "The sky is always a reminder that what was once dark and brutal, may be beautiful just the same." How many stars above were created from grief? From murderous rages bled into a stone only to be shot into the air? How many tears of lovers and loved ones now glistened above?
"I accept your fealty. And I accept you, Korbin. Everything that you are, and will be. All the things you have no control over, and those that you do. I see you, just as I see all of my stars. And I love you for how you shine."
So saying, the goddess strokes the raven once more, before lowering him back to the stones that surround them. With a last, lingering smile, Safrin disappears in a puff of lilac mist that will linger as long as Korbin does.
