For once, an adult human that doesn’t strike him or call him strange piques his curiosity more than fear. N lacks the words. But to him, the man is like a savior. And the way he speaks, he is like a saint.
“I can tell you are different, unlike the other children,” the man says again, after some time. The man brushes the dirt from his clothes and extends his hand to N. A gesture of grace. “I believe you can change the world with that heart of yours. If you come with me, I will show you how to use that power for good.”
An unfamiliar feeling stirs inside the boy’s chest. Is this terror? The desire for connection?
Inside the dilapidated church, light shines through the cracks and the rain recedes. Light haloes the man, like a golden crown upon his tea green hair.
“I can see in your eyes that you’ve been hurt. But remember,” the man says slowly, carefully. “Fire burns, but so does it illuminate.”
Darmanitan rises from the ground, moving behind N. N holds out a hand and Darmanitan stills but lets out a low growl.
The man finally smiles. “My name is Ghetsis. I will be your pillar—your mentor, your guide, and your path. Don’t hide your talents here, child. You can change the world. And I will be there with you every step of the way.”
“But my family,” the boy whispers hoarsely. “Can I talk to them first?”
Ghetsis nods his head. “Of course. I will wait outside until you are ready.”
The man turns around, his robes sweeps dust across the floor until he disappears outside.
N is thirsty—not for water, but for the world this man promises. N doesn’t fully understand, but the warmth in Ghetsis’s tone makes him long for something he wishes for. He turns to his friends, and he sees how Darmanitan reluctantly nods its head.
“You have been ill for a while, N. And your condition won’t improve unless you seek medicine from humans,” his guardian rumbles softly. “But I worry about your safety.”
“Then I will go with N,” Zorua yips. “I will protect him in your stead. N’s condition is frail, and I worry he won’t last another month. So I think…he should go with him. That man seems different from the villagers. And if worse comes to worse, we can run away and return.”
Darmanitan gazes at Zorua in silent assessment. Zorua stares back, steeling itself with this argument. Then, Darmanitan glances up through the holes in the ceiling. The rain recedes, but the gray clouds remain in suspension, like an invisible puppeteer awaiting their next move. Then its pensive eyes flicker to N. Finally, it sighs and gently pats N’s hair.
“My dear. My sunshine. If you go, remember that we are with you, always. So go with our love, N. Grow up and be a kind person.”
Wetness swells behind the child’s eyes and what his family says makes his chest tight. “You’re not coming with us? Why?”
“I grow am growing old, N. And I must protect this forest. You do not need to wait for me, N. You must live too.”
The gold stars hanging in the sky are low enough for N to grab. If they are for him to take, then N plucks the brightest one and swallows it. But no matter how beautiful the star is, you cannot conceal its bitter aftertaste.

Hak opens his mouth to say no again, but the words dry up in his throat. He chalks it up to being thirsty. Jaeha was fetching more water—when is he going to be back? Instead, Hak pauses for a moment as he observes her tiny frame.
Yona’s a scrawny, royal thing with doe-like eyes and more shortcomings than he can count on his fingers. She’s childish, endearing, annoying, and hopelessly kind. But he would never call her weak.
She’s far from it. Despite her world shattering in a single, windless night—her spirit remains strong as iron. Any grown person would weep from losing their family, but her? That girl of sixteen loses not only her family, but her birthright and Su-Won.
And there are things more important than dignity and pride, and survival trumps over all. You can reclaim your name and your honor, but you cannot reclaim a life lost to foolishness.
A cloud above passes and swallows the sun, casting a shadow across Hak’s face.
But I’m still with her. I’ll protect her. Even if Yona cries, she continues to fight with an unwavering heart. It may flicker, but it won’t extinguish. She may be a flower that folds in the rain, but she will not wither. Not when she is yet to bloom like fire.
