Worlds We Wish To See
"It's remarkable, really, how you creatures still use engine based systems."
"Well, what else is there? You didn't arrive here by ship?"
"No, silly. I came by star!"
"But how do you fit inside of it?"
"Who sits in a star? Such a funny idea. You are very funny."
"Then how do you use it?"
"You ask it for a ride of course!"
"Oh... I'm afraid I don't speak star..."
"It's quite simple. It's in you... After all, we are kin with the stars."
"What a peculiar thought. We share no common blood."
"No. You share more than that. What we share with the stars is beyond blood, beyond family. Soon you will understand."
"Did we come from the stars?"
"In a way, we all did. In a way we will all become stars again. You will see it someday when you are interred in this soil. In billions of years of patient purgatory, you will come apart from your earthen bed rest as the world shatters into remnants, to fly off and make a new one. You will take flight and visit the unseen. You will glide for lightyears and travel more days than your soul can ever count. You will find that the end has no meaning."
"That seems a bit of a dark thing to say."
"Far from it. It means we are limitless. It means we are beyond measure. It means we will live forever as the pieces of creation, of dreams, of wishes, of life. We are the worlds we wish to see."
