Starfire floated towards the city.
Azarath…The place where Raven was born, raised and trained…
She told her some things about it the day they switched bodies…
The monks, the temple, great lady Azar…and her mother…she didn't talk much about her, like a subject she was trying to avoid.
Star spent nights attempting to imagine this place, but what she have in front her eyes was… way more impressive.
It's constructions where twice as tall the ones she have seen on earth, and the upper levels of this structures have connections with the ones in front of them, like bridges, useful to pass from a building to another without going back to the street again.
This giant buildings, all of which seemed to be made of polished marble, reflected the setting sun giving the city a golden glow.
There was just one problem…the hole place was empty.
The tamaranean strolled warily through the deserted streets…not a single soul.
"Hello?" she called…there was no response.
"I'm lost, can someone here help me please?"…same answer.
Fear was raising on her, she didn't know what to do here, she had no one to ask for help and…
Her vacillations where interrupted by the flight of a dove, that passed touching her head…she decided to follow it…a living being was better than nothing.
After a few turns the bird reached the top of a building, Starfire stopped dazzled by a yellow shine.
It was a tower, emblazoned on the front of it there was a huge gold bird with wings spread toward the sky, it reflected sunlight like a mirror.
She doubted…and then fly to the terrace.
There was the dove, laying peacefully over a hooded figure's shoulder.
It was a woman in white robes, and she was facing the sunset, her back to Starfire.
Other white doves where there with her in the balcony, around her feet and over the banister.
"Eh…hello…excuse me I …" she hesitated…the figure turn to look at her…
"May you help me please?" she finally asked…the woman lowered her hood and Star saw her melancholic expression…blue eyes and hair, long hair, but stylized as Raven's and the same chakraover her forehead.
Starfire gasped "Yyou…you are…Raven's mother!" she exclaimed.
The woman nodded, and with a voice as hopeless as her gaze she responded "My name is Arella".
