Starfall

Category: Sci-Fi

She had learned long ago not to trust promises.

The garden had been her mother’s pride, and now it was hers.

Some doors, once opened, can never be closed again.

She had not expected to see him again, not after all these years.

The sword was heavier than she expected, but she did not lower it.

The stars that night seemed closer than they had any right to be.

The map was old, its edges frayed, but the path it showed was unmistakable.

The morning light filtered through the curtains, painting the room in soft gold.

The end.
