"Norea, in the darkness there is no rainbow."
Biras zo nireku za ka aba zadakunir onas rinuen jer dafazoum ir ry īa entya entesiḑad mi anes, nar semasale nam esin ler zo ükue mi rar enilinla avyum anes ku zo įnir mi rinuen.

Ininazentum ler anes keku ena rile zo asem, yir loī za zo ul linirum mīş:
"They spoke of a city beneath the sea where stars had once been traded like coins and the priests counted silent tides on their knuckles; there the last librarian burned the maps and folded the sky into a small blue cage, whispering the names of vanished gods in the Nilyazi language, until his voice grew thin as driftwood, and when Norea found the final page she traced the ink with trembling fingers and understood that the colors of faith were only a ledger for absence. Learn Norea, that in the darkness there is no rainbow."
Zaku zo inilada unal elue mi rar entel nelka anes rile bizus kie zo bilazileuşu mi nir aba ka.

"Norea, you cupped your hands around a small, beating thing you called hope, pressing it to your chest as if its pulse might keep the plaster from crumbling. My words will unpick the seams of memory until only a single, fragile question remains: Dreams die when sleepers wake, Norea. Will you die if I wake?"

"The village kept its lamps lit all night as if light could stitch together the fractures in people's faces; elders told of a time when newborns arrived wrapped in thunder and certainty, but the midwife who never lied taught Norea to count the breaths between heartbeats and to hold her hands open for what might slip away, whispering over each small face the truth she had learned at the edge of the world: everything that is born is fragile, Norea."
