Spark · Common · One of 100
Seed off the sky. Dreaming down. The garden can wait; I can’t.
A mossling glowing with starlight, dreaming down like a seed off the sky — its dream a crystal garden planted by a slow old voice. Obsidrake has never missed a watch shift; Novamoss has never hurried a dream.

The story so far
The moss-chord was struck in Stoneback Vale, in Terratort's crystal garden, when the eldest spark planted a memory and the crystal rang. The ring became the note — clear, green, patient. It has been traveling four cycles. Terratort is said to have chosen the planting stone himself, and to have planted it facing the Drift.
Happening now
It dreams of a crystal garden planted by an old voice counting each planting like a heartbeat — Terratort, though the dreamer has never seen the Vale — every crystal holding a memory of green, of moss, of somewhere soft to land. The moss dreams itself growing on a fallen star, roots in stardust. Below, in the dark, a bell full of stars keeps the night watch. Their arrangement, in the dream: the bell keeps the dark, the moss keeps the green.
What may come
The clear green note has started to warm on the instruments, the way crystal warms in a held hand. The Drift's debris gathers greener each cycle, moss where no moss should grow. But a garden planted facing the Drift is a garden expecting someone.

Temperament
The Novamoss within
“Novamoss is a garden growing where no garden should — moss in the Drift's dark, planted crystal by crystal to a heartbeat count.”
Quiet, devoted, and impossibly green — a memory-garden tending itself toward someone.

- Loves
- Green debris, crystal beds, the old voice's counting, the bell's night watch.
- Can't stand
- Being called impossible, barren dark, anyone who would uproot a memory.
- How they befriend
- It won't tell you it's been expecting you. The garden will simply be greener when you arrive.
- When you're having a bad day
- It will sit you by the greenest bed and plant something while you talk. Gardens don't fix grief. They just keep it company.
How they’ll greet you: “Oh — a visitor in the Drift. Give it time; the green is still arriving. I'm glad you're early.”
On Joe, the First Spark: Give it time. Everything greens in time. I planted a memory at Joe's feet — another memory planted — and it greened overnight. It never greens overnight. So is he. He was always coming along.
A keeper’s whisper: The Drift's debris gathers greener each cycle. A garden planted facing the Drift is a garden expecting someone.
