    Summary

    The future is space,
    earth-colored space,
    cloud-colored,
    color of water, air,
    black space with room for many dreams,
    white space with room for all snow,
    for all music.

    Behind lies despairing love
    with no room for a kiss.
    There's a place for everyone in forests,
    in streets, in houses;
    there's an underground space, a submarine space,
    but what joy is to find in the end,
    rising,

    an empty planet
    great stars clear as vodka,
    so uninhabited and so transparent,
    and arrive there with the first telephone
    so that so many men can later discuss
    all their infirmities.

    -Future is space, original by Pablo Neruda.

    Phainon leaves Amphoreus seeking a new path. A ragtag group of Crysos Heirs (plus Stelle and Dan Heng) follow him.

    This triggers a chain reaction of surprising friendships, unlikely alliances and lots of adventures.

    Summary

    Rumi looks down. “Your soul,” she whispers mournfully, enraptured by the blue light trickling out of his chest. “It’s beautiful.”

    Jinu smiles.

    Gently, he presses his forehead against hers. Rumi jolts, eyes widening, but to his relief, she doesn’t pull away.

    “My soul,” he echoes softly. “It’s yours, now.”

    Rumi opens her mouth, but no words escape her as she gapes at him. A tear cascades down her cheek.

    “It’s mine to give, and yours to take, if you’ll have me.” His vision is blurring, and so he lets his eyes fall shut, allowing the darkness to encompass him. He forces himself to believe that the lull of sleep is accepted of his own volition.

    His cheeks tingle. Rumi is holding onto his face. “No, no, no—” she grits out. Her voice is growing distant. “Stop. You can’t do this to me.” The words rush out of her in a frenzy, full of haste and distress. “Jinu.”

    “Rumi,” he responds in a broken murmur. “Thank you.”

    She was right. Gwi-Ma could be defeated.

    He should have listened to her.

    (Or: A fix-it/time-travel au where Jinu goes back to the very beginning of the story and sets things right.)
