all we are, we're distant stars
lost in the dark, i know how to part
lost in the dark, i know how to part
Slow steps continue towards the basin, Nate nodding as he methodically moves closer and closer. ”Worship what?” He wonders aloud, offering a suggestion to himself a moment later. ”The Voice, she has the same shiny dark stone, but... this is more than I’ve ever seen.” They pass close enough to one of the ‘pews’ that Nate can lean over, run his hand along its warm surface. ”I think it’s alive.” Thinks it’s hungry, though Nate knows better than to voice that thought, unable to explain the steps leading up to it.
Turning suddenly to look at Sunjata, though his gaze doesn’t draw away from the centre of the cavern until everything else is facing his husband, Nate cocks his head. ”Lava makes tunnels?” Another curious glance is thrown around the room, considering it anew, before his gaze settles back on the basin. Even if everything else is, ”That’s on purpose.” His free hand rises, points at it, and it feels dramatic, feels right. ”It’s waiting.” For what though, he can’t say.
His steps pause, and Nate looks around them again, though this time it’s deliberate, almost furtive. Shadows or spirits, it’s impossible to tell, but something has caught his attention, some shiver down his spine, some sudden sense of unease, where before his placid happiness had been unshakeable.

searching high and low for life
a paradise, a light in your eyes
