Oh, wow, it wasn't quite as drastic as that. Most of our months were pretty normal -- sometimes the sun or the moon would get blocked, but it would only last for a few hours at best, and if you were up at the right time, you could usually catch the sunrise. [ She chuckles lightly. ] Mom would sometimes be up as early as I, and we'd go across the flower field to watch the sun rise over the sea. Sometimes we'd miss it though, and we'd make a point to watch the sun set again that day. Sunrise or Sunset, we always saw one at least once a day.
... I wonder if she's watching the sun now. [ Pause, and a shake of her head. ] I guess that's why I'm always up so late - I'm really quite used to it by now, since I've been up later than this to watch the flowers bloom back home.
