That divide between limbo and serene fluidity captivated him, and without fail, every rotation that brought Glacia to this sector excited him. He felt the Weave coursing through him with churning fervor, his skin detecting the slightest changes in electromagnetic pressure radiating from this astral pitch, his internal clock synchronizing with the irregular ebb and flow.

This was enlightenment. In these days, when others saw the murky maw of oblivion, 78471 found agency, and a universe that did not shirk him for his birth.

And so, for countless hours, he mindlessly directed his sailors as they scanned the Flow, his winding eyes studying every filament and wisp of the pearly sea. Out there, there were no gray ceilings, only the infinite.
