194 Glowing Up

The last memory flashes through my mind, my mother smiling sadly at me as she sends me into the sky. My heart refuses to watch you leave me so my tears blur the memory. The sky up there is tragically beautiful, like a graveyard of stars. I don't want to leave your warm embrace...

I try to stand but my mother quickly says "You need to stay in the liquid starlight for a little longer my dear. You've been away for so long, it's the reason you're struggling so much with your powers. Soak in the water for a little longer."

"Pull the energy in the water to you and harness it." She says giving me a warm smile. All I want to do is run over to her and hug her but I listen to her and begin pulling the energy in the water to me. What had she called it? Liquid starlight?
