He saw the stars. But for the first time in his life, he looked at them and felt no comfort. Instead, he felt mocked. You are down there alone, the stars seemed to say to him. And we are up here, in our constellations, together.

So? said the stars. What difference does that make when you are all alone now?

Edward could think of no answer to that question.
