Star Journey Novels & Stories

There was the anger of being deceived, the regret of being fooled, but most of all the hollowness left when a dream falls apart. For this so-called chosen one, she had gambled her own future and the good name of the entire Order. And in the end she had found it was, from start to finish, one enormous con. She didn't say a single word for Lucian. She didn't even spare him one comforting glance. Lucian sank into utter despair. He knew he was finished. Garrick and the other two elders were quick on their feet. They flew forward at once and bowed to me in apology.

“Don’t feel sorry for me. I’ve always been proud of you. “And don’t hate me, Luna. I wasn’t there for much of your life, but I hope you’ll become brave and responsible…” My smile faded. Then came Luna’s wailing cries, crashing through the silence like shattered glass. And I heard so many voices from that mountain, from the countless lights across the land. They were proof that I had been here, that I had lived. And for that… My journey in this world had been worth it. … Epilogue - Amber Sky

She gently traced my tombstone and whispered, "You are the starlight that vanished from my sky." Finally, my soul began to fade. Thank you, my sister.

She nodded and glanced up too. “Wow. You have the most amazing night sky,” she gasped. “The stars are really close. I feel like I can reach up and grab them.” He laughed. “Those are our neighboring planets. They keep to themselves, much like we do.” One particular star had a blue glow that made it appear like a night-light. “That’s a really pretty one.” “That’s Keiros. They’re a lot like us, but they don’t shift. They’re more of a warrior race.”

"Aethel-Luna is stable. Sarah and Roric can hold the valley. But the Architect needs to see the rest of the building." The Departure As the team boarded the newly named ship, The Howl of the Stars, the whole population of Aethel-Luna gathered to watch. It wasn't a funeral march; it was an exodus of hope. Lyra stood at the viewport as the ship lifted off, watching Earth shrink into a beautiful, blue-and-violet marble. "The Sky is very big, Daddy," she whispered. "It is, Lyra," Kael said, putting his arm around Elara. "But it's not as big as us."

“Do you know why I became a doctor? Because Starling nearly died from a fever when she was twelve. I carried her on my back while begging for money door to door, but no one helped me. From that moment on, I decided to become a doctor. I don’t want to ask anyone for help again, nor do I want Starling’s light to be snuffed out. “Do you know why I chose to stay despite having the chance to study abroad? Because Starling still needed to study, and I wanted to look for a chance to leave with her. Everything I did was for her. I wanted her to have a better life. But…” Zach teared up despite smiling. His voice became even gentler. “Over the years, I worked hard to save money and kept her in an ivor

I had one chance – a frantic move that might kill me, but would get me to Amara faster than any car or plane. I reached the cliff edge and looked down at the valley far below. Starborn had one power that no other race held – the ability to travel through starlight. But with the dawn approaching and only a few stars still visible, the trip would be dangerous. Behind me, Magnus emerged from the temple door. "There's nowhere to go, Seraphina." I turned to face him. "Tell your mistress she's already lost. The prophecy is in motion, and not even she can stop it now."

Seeing that I didn't message him back, Shawn scoffed and walked away, and that's when Aster slowly came to. His sweat and blood had dried, sealing his eyelids shut. Too weak to stand, he groped blindly toward the familiar staircase, crawling forward with great effort. "Mommy… I want to go back to Mommy…" Doctors and nurses passing by whispered among themselves—some in pity, others in ridicule. I followed behind Aster, my soul pierced by a thousand needles. Step by step, each feeling like a lifetime. By the time he finally made it back to me, my blood had long since frozen in the cold night air, but Aster didn't understand. He smiled brightly. "Mommy's not bleeding anymore!"
