Summary
Khaslana realizes that the woman is still waiting for his answer. “...Not really,” he coughs awkwardly. He should really let go of her and give her some space, but she feels so right in his arms. She’s also shivering a little, clearly leaning into his elevated body temperature.
Abruptly, he asks her, “What’s your name?” In an absent-minded gesture, he tucks a stray lock of hair behind her ear.
She blinks, then opens her mouth.
What follows is the name that Khaslana will hold onto forever, for the next cycle, and the next, and the next. He will never forget it. In his darkest moments, he clings to it like a panacea and like the stardust he vowed to hold in his hands when he was just a young boy - staring up from the wheat fields of Aedes Elysiae into the vast expanse of the sky.
“My name is [reader].”
In the 108,463rd Eternal Recurrence, one of Khaslana’s prayers is finally answered. What follows is hope, absolute despair, and everything in between. But no matter what - he will see it through to the bitter end.
