Sir(II)—Facets

"My dream… my dream?" Enya spoke aloud, her gaze drifting upward toward the gray skies that loomed over the capital.

"I suppose my dream would be to become a goddess." Her eyes pierced through the clouds, landing on the brilliant and ever-stable sun. "A goddess of light and hope."

She smiled softly, her features brightening as she continued. "If there is no heaven for us poor mortals, why not create one?"

"The brutal finality of death is… horrifying. It scares me. To one day exist, and in the next blink, to not. It terrifies me that nothing of me may linger, that I'll never be able to look back on my years as a living being."

"The endless void of it all… it frightens me."

She sighed deeply. "So, my dream is to transcend such a fate and create a paradise where all can find comfort."

"A paradise of eternal life, eternal bliss, eternal joy—where no regret or sorrow can ever take root."
