Excerpt: Talents: Sanctuary

The fiery object streaking across the night sky left little evidence it was ever there. Too dark for the thin wisps of trailing smoke to be seen. The bits of ash flaking away too minute, too fragile to ever find its way to ground where anyone would come across and arouse any curiosity. If anyone would admit later bearing witness, the only admission would be their thinking it was just another tiny meteor arcing across the clouded, starless sky. And none would ever admit that the small object looked anything like a man on fire.
