Stars

Vian likes looking at the stars.

It reminds her of that ethereal place she visited once to battle a creature made of planets.

A lot of things happened since then; she kept unveiling the mystery behind black crystals that plagued that creature and many before it (and after), she started running errands for a king of a different country, she flat-out died once - and the gods in the afterlife brought her back after she helped them fend off the invaders. She's sitting in the enemy's territory now, waiting to make her move.

And yet, when she looks at the sky, she doesn't remember any of those things. She remembers her teacher coaching her on using the magic wings in the moonlight, and she remembers a creature made of planets.

Maybe it's one of the stars now.
