Moon & Stars

Delaeni's teal eyes widened with a mixture of awe and reverence as Azoula explained the significance of the northern star. The inky black expanse of the night sky stretched above them, speckled with twinkling stars that seemed to hold an ancient wisdom. Delaeni's gaze was drawn towards the brightest star, its steady glow guiding the way for travelers like them. The idea of using these celestial bodies for navigation added a layer of wonder to their journey, as if they were following a path set by the gods themselves. She felt a shiver run down her spine, both from the chill of the crisp night air and the weight of Azoula's powerful arm beside hers.

"Polaris... the northern star," Delaeni repeated in a hushed tone, her gaze fixed on the shimmering sky above, eyes sparkling as she traced the trajectory of Azoula's extended paw. Its brilliance seemed to radiate down on them like a beacon of hope, a constant guide in the vast expanse of the night sky. The idea that such a distant light could serve as a map to reunite them if ever they were separated filled Delaeni with awe.

A sense of responsibility and trust settled over her as Azoula continued, and Delaeni nodded, committing the lesson to memory. "I... I'll remember, Azoula. Polaris, the northern star," she affirmed, her voice carrying a newfound determination. The knowledge that the stars held such power and significance instilled a sense of security in Delaeni. Her tail, once swaying with nervous energy, now hung still, as if absorbing the weight of the moment. The night sky stretched above them, a vast canvas of constellations, each telling its own story- stories she knew very little if nothing at all about. Even still, Delaeni couldn't help but feel a deeper connection to the world around her, guided by the heavenly forces that watched over them.
