"I was not born-I was gathered. A breath pulled from the cold between stars, a hum in the dark before sound. I did not speak the world into being. I remembered it into form."

In the beginning, there was only silence-and then, the stars sang. When the Stars First Sang is the celestial autobiography of Astralon, the constellation-born god who rose from stardust and solitude to shape the skies, the earth, and the soul of Canthara.
From his first awakening in the void to the weaving of time, terrain, and spirit, Astralon recounts the forging of rivers, the calling of wolves, and the birth of gods. But creation is never without consequence. As Canthara grows, so too do the shadows beneath it-doubt, sorrow, and the strain of divine purpose. In this tale of wonder and weight, Astralon reflects not only on what he has built, but on what it cost him to do so.
This is not merely a record of a world's beginning-it's the confession of the one who lit its first dawn.
