Being immortalised in the sky, dancing with celestials, is something I could never achieve.

"My mother says- no, used to say- that stars were spirits of those long gone. They stay in the sky to help lost people find their path again. I think I would like to be a star."

"Of course you'd want to help people."

"No.  I mean, not just that. I'd like to believe what my mother believed about stars."

"That they're magical maps?"

"That they're spirits of those long gone."
