Then before the story is told. The colour away is blown.  horizon or below it. And that means that day and night are linked in a way that few things are there cannot be one without the other yet they cannot exist at the same time. How would it feel I remember wondering to be always together yet forever apart? Twilight fell: The sky turned to a light, dusky purple littered with tiny silver stars. Can you see the sunset real good on the West side? You can see it on the East side too.
