CHAPTER 14: THE BEGINNING

PRESENT

The path back home is familiar, and I know it will be hard. Membe told me to turn around and follow the stars. With everything that has changed and disappeared, I am still surprised that the stars remained. My mother told me that stars are the spirits of children waiting to be conceived, I cannot help but wonder if I was ever a star or just something spat out of the underworld like a curse or a deadly affliction, it seems more fitting than the idea of me being a star. I stare at the stars silently urging them to stay as stars and not be born because this world has nothing but sadness to offer them, I urge them to wait a little longer if they insist that they must be born, until I can find a way to fix everything my presence on this plane has caused.
