An unfathomable eldritch entity that encases this galaxy and the next. An all-encompassing mass of murky darkness and shining stars beyond mortal understanding.
Her name means immense heaven, yet even she is no more than a mote in this infinite universe. And so, she carefully swims through the treacherous currents that weave between reality and unreality; but in the cold abyss, her ventral lights act as a warm beacon to all kind souls who send their prayers up to the night sky.
And one by one, these sailors cast their sails.
She started this journey alone, but as she looks to her sides, she can't help but laugh. Although her new friends are not as lanternfish-shaped as she is, they glow just as radiantly.
She sets her sights ahead and witnesses only blackness, for no one can see the path uncharted. But when she closes her eyes, she feels the warmth of millions of united hearts that will one day set the universe alight with brilliant and endless love.
She smiles, and swims ever onward.
