[The story begins to a shot of the exterior of Stolas's mansion at night, before cutting to the master bedroom where Stolas and Stella are asleep. A young Octavia's frightened voice can be heard from offscreen.]
Octavia (Young): (offscreen) Mummy! Daddyyyy!
[Stolas is roused from his sleep. He turns to Stella who has most of the blanket.]
Stolas: *sleepily* Mmph. Via's calling us, Stella.
Stella: *sleepily, annoyed* You get up.
[Stolas sighs and gets out of bed. He enters Octavia's room, where she is hiding beneath her blankets.]
Stolas: Via? What troubles you, my owlet?
Octavia (Young): *sobbing* Daddy! Daddy!
[Young Octavia climbs down from her bed and runs into her father's arms. Stolas hoists her up to comfort her.]
Octavia (Young): *sobbing* I had a dream! A really bad dream!
[Stolas yawns and wipes away Octavia's tear, correcting her.]
Stolas: A nightmare.
Octavia (Young): *sobbing* I was looking all over the palace, and... I couldn't find you anywhere! You weren't there!
Stolas: *rubs Octavia on the back comfortingly* There there, Via, it's okay. You're okay.
[Stolas summons his grimoire to him telekinetically as he walks Octavia back to bed.]
Stolas: When you're scared, and you don't know where I am, you must remember...
[Stolas's grimoire floats over to him. He telekinetically flips it open.]
Stolas: No matter what happens to me, I will never be far away... from my special little starfire.
[Stolas begins singing a lullaby to little Octavia.]
♫ It always seems more quiet... in the dark ♫
[Stolas opens a portal above himself and Octavia. She looks up in awe of the beauty of space through the portal.]
Stolas: ♫ It always feels so stark... how silence grows under the moon ♫
[Stolas and young Octavia float up through the portal and into the cosmos, landing on a barren moon.]
Stolas: ♫ Constellations gone so soon ♫
♫ I used to think that I was bold ♫
[Walking across the moon, Stolas leaves footprints in the dust.]
Stolas: ♫ I used to think love would be fun ♫
♫ Now, all my stories have been told. Except for one... ♫
[Stolas looks down at young Octavia, and she looks back with her large, curious eyes. Her gaze shifts to a pink glow to her side.]
Stolas: ♫ As the stars start to align ♫
♫ I hope you take it as a sign that you'll be okay ♫
[A meteor begins its descent towards a giant, pink colored star.]
Stolas: ♫ Everything will be okay ♫
[The meteor makes contact with the pink star, and begins to sink beneath the molten surface.]
