[ She has not slept. Shutting her eyes brought figures out of the darkness: a cardinal with eyes as crimson as his robes, her brother bleeding out of his own portrait and another figure who often visited her in her nightmares, a dead prince reaching out to her without being able to voice a word. She wept and screamed until she began to fear she might be going mad with grief.
Her mother once said that half of Lucrezia's illnesses come from her heart, not her body. Now, her heart is broken and she is certain she is ill. She reaches for her firefly; the second time she addresses the network could not have been more different than the first. ]
If one dreams of another who has died and he
in the dream, the one who died tries to speak and is unable, he is mute even though he spoke words as pretty as poetry when he lived
does that mean he passed without having said something he wished to?
does it come to imply that she who dreams of him has not listened well enough when he lived? that she had not been sweet enough of a friend?
was it her fault
Will he remain thus forever? desperate and mute in her dreams?
I do not think I can bear it, I
is there a physician abroad this ship? I fear I have fallen quite ill.

[ they are both girls. Lucrezia is but fifteen and still torn between woman and child. ]
And yourself? Are there others from your realm?

[ she grins; a child should not be alone but the people here are kind and she is glad to know she is protected. ]
And you made another one, just now, did you notice? These observations are sometimes tricky to behold, like a dragonfly adorned by sunbeams.

I didn't! There was no asking. I'm very impolite--apologies! But.. We're friends? The two of us, then?

Pearl. Like the pearl of the Stars.

[ She brightens. It sounds like something out of a song, a little fairy with silver hair and sweet voice. Lucrezia is no fairy but pretending adds an edge to everything. ]
