Starry Sky

The room was simply adorned, but its effects were absolutely beautiful. The walls, the sheets, and the canopy above the bed were a midnight blue, and an ornate lantern hung in the center of the celing. The lantern cast off rays of candle light on the walls that made it look like hundreds of stars in the sky. As Kamaria kept staring at the so called stars, she started to notice familiar constellations.

She gaped in realization that these fake stars were modelled to look like the actual stars in the sky! Fascinated by this discovery, she scoured the walls with her eyes trying to find constellations that she recognized. Suddenly her curiousity was cut short by a cough.

Looking to where she heard it stood a woman carrying a tray with a glass and a jug of blood. As soon as Kamaria could get a hold of the glass, she quickly gulped it down and started on the jug. When she was half way done, she started to notice that the woman was still there staring at her. Then she also realized that Aedin wasn’t there.
