Biography
permababy, daub
Once upon a time at the top of the world a stone saw a falling star.
She was hard not to see. Against the sky, which was stretched from horizon to horizon with a blanket of the darkest velvet navy, the stars glitter-pulsed with vivid clarity and they looked to the stone to be much closer than they were. If only I were a little taller, he had thought many nights in a row, surely I could reach up and pluck one from its bed, and then I would have a friend. (It was not that the earth was a bad place to be. However, the stone thought he must be the only thing in the whole world that had ever wished to be somewhere other than where it was, and certainly he was the only stone to have such a thought. Being so misunderstood could be terribly lonely sometimes.)
But the star: as the stone was gazing upward one cold, clear night, a star began to tremble. She was the brightest and most beautiful star in her constellation, maybe in the whole sky, and many times the stone had stared up at her and longingly thought, I wish that you weren’t so far away. She now trembled, and trembled more, and then she shook, and then she sighed and ripped herself free of her shining constellation and plummeted towards the planet below. In her wake she smeared a fading trail of stardust, twinkly like fish scales and burning silver-white, and she passed so close above the earth that the stone’s wondering eyes were filled with fine glittering stardust. He was blinded, and by the time he had blinked the dust away the falling star was gone.
Now the stone, breathless and shining with stardust, struggled to his feet with such hurry and determination that the earth took notice. “Where are you going?” the earth asked him.
“To find the falling star,” said the stone. “Did you see where she landed?”
“She vanished over the horizon. Why would you want to find her?”
“Because I love her,” said the stone, who had never had such a thought before but was suddenly quite certain it was true.
“How silly,” said the earth. “You are a stone. What know you of love or stars?”
“Well,” said the stone, who was already walking in the direction the star had gone, “I know that she is the most beautiful star in the sky, and I have always wished she could be closer, and now she has fallen. I have to find her and tell her I love her, in case she doesn’t know.”
“That’s terribly ambitious for a stone,” said the earth, but then it fell silent because it could tell that the stone had already made up its mind. So the stone walked, and walked, and walked some more, clamoring over massive shards of Pillar and wobbling through barren expanses of shattered plain, and he barely noticed that the sun rose and fell.
The sun rose and fell again while the stone walked, and perhaps rose and fell one more time, and on the third day of traveling, the stone met a warrior.
“Hello,” said the Warrior, who was very tall and had a sad smile full of very impressive teeth. “Where are you off to?”
“I am on a quest,” said the stone, “to find a fallen star.”
“How do you intend to get very far on those little legs?” asked the Warrior. It wasn’t a terribly kind thing to say under most circumstances, but the Warrior said it in a kind sort of way. “I saw your star fall. She could be anywhere, and the world is very big. Aren’t you afraid?”
“I am,” said the stone. “But that does not mean I cannot be brave."
