"Look, a shooting star! Let's make a wish!"
"Making a wish won't work. There's no place amongst those stars for us."
"As long as we stick together, we'll be fine. I suppose it's just us against the world now."

"When I was back at Starfall Academy, I used to climb into the roof at night and admire the stars of the sky. Now, I can't see any stars here. There's too much light pollution for me to see even the slightest thing."
"Have you considered moving to a place where the night sky is devoid of clouds?"
"Cloudless skies? In this economy?"
"Don't bring the economy into this, you know the world is falling apart as we speak."

Welcome to the real world, children.

"We're not just outcasts here. We're not just disappointments, or children they didn't want. We're monsters. We're catalysts of destruction and they're scared of us."
"Is this what awaits us outside the walls of Starfall Academy?"
"That, and a whole lot of real world concepts that we'll have to grasp if we want to lay low in here."

it's a world of laughter, a world of tears, it's a world of hope and a world of fears there's so much that we share that it's time we're aware it's a small world after all

Welcome to the Outside, Astralites
We're told that we're "special kids" and that we need to stay in Starfall Academy to stay safe.
They warned us that the Outside was dangerous, and that we shouldn't venture out into it.
They were wrong.
We weren't kept in Starfall Academy because we needed to be kept safe.
We're kept in Starfall Academy because the people of the Outside need to be kept safe.
From us.
And now that we're out in the Outside, we'll have to learn to stay safe for our own sake. Our predetermined fates don't matter now that our lives are in our own hands.
