Star of Fate

The golden glow felt extraordinary and fantastical to Anna. Her blue eyes watched her own silhouette as memories swirled in her mind, attempting to form a coherent picture of what was happening.

Towers, death, followed by the birth of a new being—or was she always that being? These thoughts spun around in her head, causing her to stare at the golden silhouette with emptiness and bewilderment in her eyes. Her body was in a space that resembled the night sky—a place filled with hundreds of stars interweaving with colors and nebulae—as Anna continued to contemplate.

The golden silhouette began to transform; her clone took the shape of a woman. She had large proportions and an enormous head. She wore a white dress with golden patterns and an odd headpiece that extended into infinite cosmic space. On her ears hung two long earrings forming strange animal patterns. Her hands were covered with gloves that extended to her elbows.
