OF THE GOLDEN HAIR

A constellation of a maiden visible on FIncayra that is located near to the constellation of Pegasus.   Rhia explained, "My constellations are not made from the stars, but the spaces between the stars.  The dark places.  The open places, where you mind can travel forever and ever."    She explained some
of the strange wonders of the Fincayra sky.  "How the broad band of stars across the middle of the night sky was truly a seam sewn in the two halves
of time, one half always beginning , the other half always ending.  How the longest patches of darkness were really the rivers of the gods, connecting this world and others.  How the spinning circle of the stars was actually a great wheel, whose endless revolutions turned life into death,
death into life." (p.118-119)
