Sea Stars by Swift

Since the beginning of the sky, stars have been born, and they have died.
Their voices chimed like bells.
Jack and Kymbran were two young winds who roamed the sky and guarded the earth.
They smiled at the world below,
but then the darkness came.
A monster towered over the mountains and covered the land in shadow.
He loathed the brightness of the sky and warmth of the earth.
He bashed and tore the stars from the sky, he rampaged and roared, he splintered trees and flattened hills.
The two winds were horrified as everything the loved and protected was split and smashed.
They ignored their shock and ran to help.
They tried to fight the monster, but they could do little to stop him as the stars crashed to the earth.
Some stars, when struck by the monster's mighty club, cracked like glass and faded to dust. others, fell fast and hot, burrowing into the earth, their corpses turned to diamonds. A few fell to sea, lights extinguished by water.
The winds were doing their best, blowing dust in the monster's eyes and knocking the air from his lungs.
Jack hit the monster's legs, trying to make him fall.
Kymbran hit the monster's large arms, trying to stop his swinging club.
After hours, the monster grew tired and pained.
He fell to the ground and his head struck a rock, and he caused the sky no more pain.
The sun began to rise and the two winds sat on the shore and wept for the lost stars.
But when Jack looked into the shallow water, he saw a curious creature.
Nine five-legged creatures basked in the water.
They were the stars who'd fallen to sea and lost their flame.
The winds smiled down at them, for they looked happy.
They named them Sea Stars and left them to light the deep sea.
