{{Description|Peeking through the window, Faeflux keeps its vigil. Its hourglass casts a gentle light on the man in bed, tracing the map of his years onto his knotted hands as a half-dreamt word, "Cold," escapes his lips. The bitter aroma of herbs steams from a nearby pot. Suddenly, memory and reality blur. The old man is a young boy once more. How many times has Faeflux turned the sands, watching this constant, human "change"? This, it wonders, is what they call "fate," isn't it?}}

In a blur, the figure on the bed overlaps with the bright youth of more than ten years past. Faeflux has already lost count of how many times it has turned the hourglass in all these years. It watches the "[[Change]]" of humanity... Is this what composes "Fate"?}}
