It was happening a lot lately, waking in the middle of the night with Safrin's voice in his mind.

The stars in their brilliance shone above, and the hunter rubbed at his eyes as he trailed along the shoreline towards the lighthouse. He saw the star fall and focused intensely upon it, checking first that Vanya was still there, twinkling above. And when she was? Ronin had no idea what to think.
Safrin shone, ethereal and gorgeous as usual, at the foot of the lighthouse steps, and he slowed as he approached her. Curiosity quickly turned into confusion, Ronin glancing between the child beside her and the goddess in her brilliance. "What's going on?"
