EDMUND
When his Mummy had said that they were going stargazing, Edmund was ecstatic. The idea of seeing more of Lady Safrin's domain and spending time with his Mummy was fantastic. Two of his favorite things in one activity. What more could he want?
Settling against his Mum happily, Edmund wraps one arm around her waist and rests his head on her shoulder. Once comfortable he turns his eyes to the sky. "There's so many, Mummy", he notes with wonder. It always astounds him just how vast the night sky is. Scanning the stars above, Edmund's eyes catch on a particular constellation.
"There! Mummy look, it's Hydra." The child happily, and proudly, points at a long string of stars with an encirclement at the end. "The big water snake."

I never realized how beautiful
Fires burn under the stars
