It wasn't really nighttime yet, but Vaako had found himself waiting all day for the sun to set. He'd woken up in Riddick's arms still, and that's how he wanted to go to sleep. Free, free from his wife, forever. The Lord Marshal had said so. On top of that, the previous night had been the first time he hadn't had nightmares since he came to Mirage. Maybe it was that his hand stayed on the glowing print all night long.

He'd gone out, as usual, but found himself wandering aimlessly. He'd found all he could find in the library, he sensed that. There was nothing more books could tell him. They were on uncharted territory. Anyway, the sense of impending doom that he was feeling would have made it impossible to focus on reading. So, instead, he'd wandered through the warm sunshine, and this time, he didn't wear any armor. For the very first time, probably, since becoming a Necromonger, he went out without even one piece of the heavy plate armor. It felt different, walking around without it.

Finally, the sun had set, and Vaako had hurried back to his room... their room. He found himself going immediately to Riddick's bed, where the Furyan was still lying, and immediately joining him. It wasn't time to sleep, of course, but Vaako just wanted to hold him again. He was shocked and amazed that Riddick had allowed it last night. Sighing softly, he held on tight and whispered into the other man's ear.

"I think it's coming for me... I feel it."

Yvaine had felt extremely uneasy the previous evening. She had awakened with a knotting so tight in her belly that she felt physically ill. She could not figure out what was wrong with her, but the feeling of foreboding hadn’t passed no matter how long she waited in her starry room, so she’d opted not to go out that evening. Instead she sat in her room silently, watching the twinkling of the strange, far away stars in her night sky room, thinking upon how much she missed her own sky, her sister stars, and her mother moon. She’d fallen asleep a few hours before dawn.

The following evening after sun down, the star awoke to find that, though the queasiness had passed, her belly was still knotted. She couldn’t spend the rest of her life- which would be a quite a long time for an immortal- in her room. Yvaine had to get out, to breathe in the fresh air, to live a life. Besides, there was so much of the resort she had yet to see.

She combed her hair and donned a new dress that looked remarkable like the one she had been wearing. Stars didn’t truly have to change their clothing- not in the sky, but while she was upon the earth, she had gotten the dress dirty through her traveling around the grounds. She herself was not so dirty. Luckily the dress had picked it all up. As a star, she didn’t really have to sweat out toxins or release bad things from her body because stars didn’t do such things. They only excreted a dust of sorts that helped them shimmer and glow brighter.

Yvaine vacated her residential unit and began heading toward the main building, her glow dimmer than usual for the knot of anxiousness in her belly.
