“The stars grew smaller and smaller, and the black softened. She stood up, hugging the quilt around her, watching. At the back was darkness still, but before her was light: pale yellow growing brilliant, gold-streaked with red and orange. She had watched sunrises before within walls and behind glass, but never like this, with the cool breeze in her face and wilderness in every direction. She had never seen anything so beautiful.”
