Oh, it's in my roots—in my veins.
It's in my blood and I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain

Everything here was lively and moving forwards. Vastly different from the space where Momma Sol had taken her. It had been stale and stagnant, no changes to their environment whatsoever. It was a space just for the two of them; the passing of time was of no consequence within their little bubble.
But Xero had decided that it was time to move on with her life.
She was the daughter of the both the sun and the moon – a child born of the jungle. But she could not return back to her home. The moon still lingered painfully within that shadow and sunlight world. Momma Sol had not yet left their space and her family was otherwise scattered to the wind. The jungle was empty without those who grounded her and the decision to move on cut straight through her still fragile heart. She was truly determined to try and put the loss of the moon firmly behind her. It was time she finally lived for herself instead of just solely for her family.
But for the first time in her young life, she was truly alone.
And it hurt.
Xero stood quietly amongst the other field-dwellers and actively watched the interactions of those who approached the homeless. It was interesting to her that all it took for such a momentous decision was some small talk and a positive first impression and soon the homeless ones were happy to follow. She continued to watch the others around her with both trepidation and curiosity.
She hoped she didn’t appear too pitiful or lost to anyone.
She felt like everything was out of her control.
