Shelley Parker-Chan. The one who became the Sun (№ 460644)

This was not the same feeling that visited her at the age of twelve - abstract curiosity: what would happen if I jumped? It felt like she had already jumped. After the jump, but before the fall: that moment when the world grabs your body and prepares to send it back to its place.

She was overcome by an uneasy feeling, as if she had encountered something that she could not express in words. It was the pull of fate in the outer world where greatness is created.
