Lanterns Under a Waning Sun

Aster doesn't know why they all say the Darkening can't be stopped. The reasons are less important than the effects they have, though. Aster doesn't feel like she has any other choice but to prove that those who are Tainted can be treated and stabilized. She feels compelled to give them hope and bring them healing, while feeling woefully inadequate to be the one that does.
