The teardrops that fell from his eyes contained everything, and garbled mumblings found their way across the face of it; but never did I expect to find this here.

Did you hear that? I thought I saw a flicker, a blip, a faultline... Don't be scared. We find ourselves and lose ourselves and find it is all one waveform we ride to infinity, and I felt myself falling through the clouds again. Did you hear that? A flame sparks in front of me, green and blue and gold and warm, and these icicles surround and encroach on me. I see that now. Cold like the touch of steel against skin, and warmed only by my own heart.
