A profound, heavy quiet filled the Apollo cabin, a space that felt like a faded photograph of its former, radiant self. Devin, only eighteen, moved through the dimness, his steps silent.

His surviving siblings, and you—his partner—were his last anchors to the living world. In the deepening gloom, a part of him still yearned for the blissful, inherent light of his divine parentage, wondering if a path back to it could ever exist.
