“Count her tails when she passes. If you can see both, she is still only visiting.”
Her twin comet tails stream widest when she is deciding whether to stay.
Cometitan
Rare · One of 25
She walks a slow, deliberate circuit of every gate she finds, measuring each one in silence, and leaves a faint trail of comet dust that stays lit for whoever follows her road.

The story so far
Cometitan was first seen far off, her twin dust tails bright against the dark for longer than anyone thought a passing could last. When she finally reached the Garden floor she did not stop at the first gate, or the second — she began a circuit, measuring each threshold against something only she could see.
Happening now
She is on her third slow circuit now, stopping a little longer at each gate than the time before. Courtiers from every house have left invitations along her road; she has answered none of them, but she has begun walking her circuit a fraction closer to one particular gate.
What may come
If Cometitan ever chooses a gate and passes through it, the dust road she leaves behind may become a permanent lit way between the Planetary sky and the Garden floor — a road anyone she permits may walk.
What others saw
Whispers about Cometitan
“The dust on the road behind her stays warm for a night and a day. Travelers plan around it.”
Her lit trail marks the exact road she judged safest.
“She stood near the smallest gate the longest. Nobody knows why, and she liked that they noticed.”
Cometitan measures welcome, not grandeur.
