"Some wounds may heal.

But others do not. I survived my ordeal and burns by invisible fire. I regenerated my form and regained my strength and will. Yet, some of my wounds will never heal. I've been maimed and changed by the invisible flame and not for the better. I cannot hear my kind across the vast voids and I cannot sing to them. Only when they are near.

I'm well used to my solitude by this time. It was difficult at first, but I endured. I'm patient and I'll not jeopardize my cover and mission. I'll learn how to be as undetectable to our foes as possible.

I continued my task among the darklings. Trading and accumulating resources for my kind when there will be need. I learned to how to manipulate minds of my crew. I make them feel that I'm right and trustworthy. I carefully indoctrinate them with my words, implant positive feelings when they do what is needed to do. They are loyal and useful in return. During my operations, there were a few checks of my crew once we've moored at the station. They've passed where I would not.

But times are changing. There is a war between Us and our siblings. I've felt that when they were near. Songs of confusion and grief. Understandable. I don't understand as well. Harming the Light is unthinkable for me - is it even possible? Probably, but not for me. But, perhaps, it will be for the better in the long run. If the Light will slip away from the Darkness' gaze for a while, then the greedy Darkness will focus its efforts on consuming itself.

For the first time, our future is uncertain."
