Prompt:The stars. If only to visit those mythical beings of the skies, and to seek answers from those benevolent, yet impartial cats of the heavens. After all, how could they? How could they possibly sit enthroned on high with a crown of stars on their heads, while disaster loomed near? How could they not have at least warned through visions, through dreams, through… anything. Wasn't it their job?
He wanted to believe. To find peace in their decision, to find peace in his faith with the stars that the clan -- that his sister -- believed in so deeply. But no, it had been shaken.
His sister had been swept away by the high tides on the Broken Passage. She'd been on patrol, those soft amber eyes watching intently for intruders. It had been the time of day when the tides were supposed to be low. A weird anomaly, but there'd been no warning. Not a sound from those all-knowing, omnipotent beings above. Utter silence.
Why?
A word he used to fling to the skies, to make his voice heard, but it was pointless. He was just one cat, just a single grain of sand amongst hundreds. He'd tried. He'd thrown himself at those treacherous waters, pushing past the snag and bite of jagged rock against his body, taking that relentless beating from the waves. Shouldn't he have at least received more than a sodden, lifeless soul in exchange for his efforts?
If he could fly, that's where he'd go. The stars. To find answers, but maybe also to find his sister -- to bury his nose into her fur, to take in her scent lingering of salt and pine trees. To see her one last time.
