Ngaphansi kwenhlangano yeStars, umhlaba unobukhulu, izinkanyezi zikhanya njengemibala ehlukahlukene ezulwini labantu, lesi sikhathi sithokozisayo futhi siphumzeka. UDayan, ogqoke ijezi elimnyama, ume emaphethelweni ehlathi, ukukhanya kwezinkanyezi kuhamba njengeziqukathi emzimbeni wakhe, kukhanya kakhulu. Uthumele umama wakhe ukuthinta izinyawo, esebenzisa impungushe yegolide, ephikisana nobuhle bezinkanyezi. Nokho, ubuhle obujulile be-ambience abugcini nje ngokumangala, akwazi ukufihla ubuhlungu obukhona ebusweni bakhe, kubonakala sengathi ujabule ngokuthola umphakathi wakhe.
UDayan ubuka izinkanyezi ezikude, ulethe umcabango wakhe kuzo lezi zinkanyezi ezimfihlakalayo. Uyehlola indlela yokuphila ngokwakhe, indlela yokuba umoya omkhulu. Kodwa le ndlela ibonakala njengemfog kwi-intergalactic, iyadavaza kahle. Ezweni elingenamkhawulo, amandla akhe amnyama, afaka ukucasha kanye nokukhathazeka, kuthakazelela.
Njengoba kwenzeka lokhu, izinkanyezi ziba namathafa amancane, uDayan ufinyelela emithini yokukhanya, fathe ukucela ukhetho. UDayan ugqugquzela umama wakhe ngemva, ebhensa impungushe, uzenza umkhankaso, ethola ithuba lokwandisa ubuciko. Udayan ubona ukuthi lokhu kungenzeka, kusho ukuthi lokhu kungaba yithuba lokuhlola.
Sukuma ezinyaweni zezinkanyezi, uDayan ufuna ukungena efosini yehlathi ejolile nehloniphekile. Lehlathi likhanya njengephupho, izihlahla ziphakama ngemiphetho yemibala, amagatsha akhazimula ngezinkanyezi, kubonakala sengathi izinkanyezi zixoxa izimfihlo zazo.
