Hearts On Cards

Rozalia's birth was...complicated, to say the least. Her father was an astronomer from Homeworld. You may know that planet known as 'Earth'. Her mother was a bit of an adventurous youth (supposedly) from Otherworld. In her dimension, fates were determined by stars. Constellations, horoscopes, star signs-these things that people on Homeworld wrote off as pseudo-science was our reality. A reality far too cruel for her.

As her mother went into labor with her second child, her father cradled his wife. He raced to the nearest light portal. But it was too late. Or, perhaps, too early. The moment they stepped foot into the dimension between dimensions, The Sky of Nothingness, The Realm of Darkness that bridged their two dimensions, her mother still gripping the light crystal fast in her hands-the baby's head crowned.

And thus, she was the Girl Born Without Time.

They weaved a necklace made from gold and silver, and for the charms, strung on pure, carved birthstones of every kind. Usually birthstones were given as gifts at christenings and birthdays. For their daughter, Rozalia, though, this would be the only thing keeping her tethered to the Otherworld dimension.

And now, if Rozalia doesn't find her Glimmer, all memory of her existence in Otherworld will be erased, and she will be sent back to Homeworld-and stay stuck there forever.
