As a girl, she huddled against Illarion when they slept. The two were twins, after all, birthed and lived as one. Yet never had she felt so connected to someone before. Valeriya nuzzled Armande most of the time they slept. His warmth was welcoming, and she fell asleep with her fingers curled around his neck.
His declaration chased away any stupor that lingered from the rest. She hoped the Above would not make her soft, accustomed to soft pallets and lazy sleeps.
She shook off their bed coverings, erupting to life. Today was the day her life began. Perhaps it was she who had been sleeping, and only now was she truly awake. The sky beckoned. The green and blue called. She dressed herself in the attire that Armande provided and was ready to depart at the first sign of readiness.
When the time came, she squeezed his hand, left the others behind, and boldly entered the world of the Above.
