Transcript
[Excerpt from Book 6 of The Starbender Cycle, by Fetcher McMarvin]

The three suns of Bel-Kellar were melting into one another in the sky, twisted in their death throes as the Darkstar Anomaly devoured them with disconcerting alacrity.

Trevor had managed to navigate the deadly debris whirling around the Anomaly and crash-land Empress Tourmaline's Royal RaptorCruiser at the base of Mount Mhuul, synthetic geopyramid which they were now surmounting. They stood panting beside a synthstone altar, its receptacle pulsing with crimson light.

"One minor detail I left out, Trevor," the empress said between labored breaths.

"We put this into the altar and it devours the anomaly, taking us with it in the process," Trevor replied, a wink in his grim smile.

"You knew the whole time?"

Trevor wrapped his fingers around hers, both of them now holding the Starbender Prism, "I was born for this." Trevor replied, and he pushed the prism into the altar.
