			==Star Dream==
			You are on a puppetry stage. It seems huge and brightly lit by a blood-red light. You realize that the
			marionette that is being played for the audience is you. At first the puppet master is your mother,
			laughing. She asks, “Who is your mistress?” In a childlike singsong voice, you answer, “You are, mother.”
			The audience is made up of sacrificial victims, each bearing a red star tattoo. They boo and hiss as
			blood gushes from their wounds. “Who is your master?” booms the voice of Kalak himself. In a childlike,
			singsong voice, you answer, “You are, God-King Kalak.” Again, the audience boos and hisses. The third
			puppeteer is you, clearly dead by sacrificial right. “Who will save the children of the star?”

			The scene changes. There is a massive battle. You are overlooking the chaos. An armored legion is
			standing at the ready beside you. “Mistress…orders?” asks a somewhat nervous soldier. “I think it high
			time we show up my sister, don’t you? Forward.” The order is issued on your authority and yours alone.

			Your vision turns to a red light from a star that seems to bleed. You wake up with a tattoo.

==The Flame and the Void==
"Auntie, how much longer must I OWW!" The switch cut the air, though no hand held it, arcing into the child's back. Her fingers closed tightly around an ember, she gathered herself. "I apologize, ''Teacher.''"

"Ah, good, young Alecto. At least you didn't ask me what you did wrong. This time. And the answer, child, is that you will hold the fire in your hand until you can hold it in your mind. You are the flame. You are the void, with the flame burning within. You are a daughter of Erinyes, and you will master this if it kills you." The child's anger flared, the ember brightening to a fierce red as she buried the emotion inside. "Better. Not good enough, but better."
