We start at the manshion of the Goetas and a young Octavia calling for her parents

Octavia: Mummy! Daddyyyy!

Stolaz wakes Up and Turns to Stella

Stolas: Mmph. Via's calling us, Stella.

Stella: You get up.

Stolas sighs and gets out of bed. He enters Octavia's room and Sees her hiding behind her blanked

Stolas: Via? What troubles you, my owlet?

Octavia: Daddy! Daddy!
I had a dream! A really bad dream!

Stolas: A nightmare.

Octavia: I was looking all over the palace, and... I couldn't find you anywhere! You weren't there!

Stolas: There there, Via, it's okay. You're okay.
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 ♫

♫ It always feels so stark... how silence grows under the moon ♫

Constellations gone so soon ♫

♫ I used to think that I was bold ♫

♫ I used to think love would be fun ♫

♫ Now, all my stories have been told. Except for one... ♫

♫ As the stars start to align ♫

♫ I hope you take it as a sign that you'll be okay ♫

♫ Everything will be okay ♫

♫ And if the Seven Rings collapse ♫

Although, the day could be my last. You will be okay ♫

♫ When I'm gone, you'll be okay... ♫

♫ And when Creation goes to die ♫

♫ You can find me in the sky ♫

♫ Upon the last day ♫

♫ And you will be okay... ♫

His lullaby finished, Stolas leaves the room as young Octavia falls sleep. Cut to several years later, where a teenage Octavia is jolted awake by smashing objects and her parents screaming at each other.
Octavia grabs her phone and puts in earbuds, playing called "My World Is Burning Down Around Me". She strides down the halls of the Goetia estate, stepping over the smashed remains of a plant thrown in her path. In the kitchen, Stella continues screaming at Stolas

Stella: YOU WANT TO FUCK THIS ONE TOO

Stolas: Ofcorse no.

Stella: You are a goddamn embarrassment! I'm not spending another moment looking at your pathetic, IMP-SUCKING FACE!!!

Stella storms out of the kitchen angrily while Octavia comes in. Stolas turned to her and wishes her a good morning.

Stolas: Good mooorning, Octavia! Did you sleep well, my owlet?

Octavia: Was that a serious question?

Stolas: Mm-hmm... What's that you're listening to?

Octavia: This song is called "My World is Burning Down Around Me". (beat) It's by Fuck You Dad. It's a band.
