Chapter 97 – The Starfield Revelation The field of stars stretched endlessly around them, shimmering faintly like a sea of fireflies frozen in time.

Jessica stared at the constellations above: one shaped like a wolf, the other like a witch. Between them burned the words **"Unity Is Strength,"** glowing brighter with each passing second.

I couldn’t blame him, he doesn’t know after all. I rolled over onto my back and stared up at the starry night sky. Knox was like the stars. I could only watch him from afar but I couldn’t be with him. And then there’s the moon, Emerald. The stars represent Knox, twinkling and dancing in the midnight blue sky, clear of any clouds. Performing the eternal court, praising the moon and its beauty.

Haya's pov I hope I never get tired of staring at the sky, when I tilted my head upwards I could clearly see millions of bright stars dotted on the black canvas of night, the sky sprinkled with stars. I gazed up at the sky and studied the silver glow of moon but the look that the moon gave me didn't cause the storm to go inside of me. Instead all my memories started playing back in my head and that's when my tears made it's way down my cheeks. I closed my eyes and started recalling the past.

You’ll notice it yourself after I leave why I chose you out of everyone. I know I am asking too much from you, especially for a stranger like me.

As the car rolled down the coastal road, those words popped back into my head, stuck there like a tattoo: “Where the stars are blind and the sky opens wide.” I said them out loud. “Where the stars are blind…” Nikolai chimed in, “Could be a metaphor or maybe it’s literal. A place where you can’t see any stars. Like somewhere underground.” “Nah. If that’s the case, the sky wouldn’t be open.” I shook my head. “But this says the sky opens wide.” He shot me a glance. “What do you think it means?” “Something big. Empty. Far away.” I paused for a moment. “Maybe a desert.”

The city fell silent. The sky itself seemed to hold its breath. Then another shift. The lantern opened. Like unfolding paper. Like releasing light. And suddenly— a trail of smaller stars appeared behind it. Not random. Writing. Actual writing. Silver-gold words stretching across the heavens. Impossible. Beautiful. Terrifying. The city stared upward. Nobody moved. Nobody spoke. The message formed slowly. One star at a time. Until finally— the sentence stood complete across the night sky. > FOR THOSE STILL ARRIVING

As the Red Teary Moon Pack continued their journey, a celestial spectacle unfolded above them. The night sky transformed into a canvas adorned with streaks of light as shooting stars blazed across the horizon. The pack members gazed in awe, their hearts filling with wonder and a sense of connection to the vast expanse of the universe. Emily, her voice filled with awe, whispered, "Look at the shooting stars, each one carrying a wish upon its tail. This is a rare gift from the cosmos, an invitation to share our hopes and dreams with the universe."

Once we’re farther away, the darkness settles in, showcasing the millions of stars in the sky. “Oh wow! You can’t see this many stars in the city,” Tanya says looking up at the sky. “Nope, but look over there,” I say, pointing. “Are those fireflies?” I laugh. “No, they are not. They’re called sprites. And, while they basically say whatever comes to mind, just know that they are the epitome of purity and kindness. Nothing they say is meant to sound mean or cruel. It’s just that they have no filter,” I say as we walk up.

Savoring every second that seemed to last for hours. When he finally pulled away, they just smiled at each other shyly knowing they just crossed a line where there was no return. Lola gasped when she noticed stars dropping from the sky like fireworks. “What is going on? She asked stunned while looking at the sky with wide eyes. Noah pressed himself up and turned around to look at the sky. “It’s what they call starlight night. Every once in a while, there is a night filled with falling stars.
