"We could literally just wish them away with a few words. Or we could have an epic fight."

From the album: My Mistborn Stuff
I was looking through an old journal of mine and I found this. It's Marsh's eye. Underneath it was written, "Oh, gosh... why did I draw a picture? And it's so perfect too. So now, every time I look at it I will feel terrible because his eyes were so beautiful and deep and now they're gone. Marsh's beauty... it's not something you can find with a glance. You have to dig a little bit. He's strong, even if he doesn't see that sometimes. He's such a hero. And he deserves a happy ending." -
"Drink the potion, Shadow," Astral said. "It will heal you." Her fingers still choked the silver cup. Darkness rolled off her shoulders in waves, each one like a person's last breath.
-
Astral glared. Her fingers tightened around her goblet and she set it down, hand gripping so hard that her knuckles turned white. "Do not say his name."
-
"Why did you let it happen?"
-
"Right. This castle. It belongs to me now. Fantastic does not exist in this Realm anymore."
-
"It's funny," Astral said. "If we want stories to be as real as possible, then why do they always end happily?"
-
"But isn't the point," Astral said, "to have a story?"
-
A blonde girl wearing jeans, sandals, and a loose red shirt with white accents walked in through the door. "Table for one, please," she said.
-
Astral nodded. "Hm. A challenge. This could be interesting."
-
"Tell me, as I am a bit intrigued, what is this threat that you say is coming?"
-
"Mmmmm," Astral mused. "The fate of the world..." She pursed her lips, then took a drink. "What do I care about the fate of this place? Narrators exist outside of reality. And... if this place was destroyed, why, I could rebuild!"
-
Astral opened her mouth to reply to Xino, then closed it, watching as Shadow stumbled into the room. She laughed. "And what in the world makes you think I would help you after all you've done?"
-
"It is no longer a part of me," Astral said, tapping the side of her goblet. "I took this castle to prove that I have overcome myself. Here I died and here I was reborn."
-
Astral shook her head. "Keep Fallen out of this. I want no part of it."
-

Astral descended the dais as dramatically as she dared, taking the other seat at the table. With a snap of her fingers, two goblets appeared before them. She took a drink of her own, then leaned back. "Why did you do it?" she asked conversationally.
-
"Yes," she said from her throne. "I do believe you wished this place into existence, didn't you? It's nice."
-
Oh yes. That. The one that stole AJ from Thought. Mmm, how tragic. But yes, I will remove it. She did as promised. Honestly, she had forgotten about the time curse that surrounded this place.
-
Why don't you come inside? Astral's voice echoed from the castle. Sorry, this place has a mind of its own. I quite like it. But really, Xino, we should have a drink together.

Sweet! See you at Queen of Shadows! -

Astral dimly noted that she was still a Narrator. She didn't have to live in this dusty dark place. But then, she liked it that way. So... quiet and still. She shivered.
