Where is Endymion?

There's a smell of ash in the air, though there is no crackling of fires or snap of flames. Nothing seems damaged, there is only the reminder carried on the wind. A hush pervades everything, quietly forbidding, mysterious.

At the top of a long set of marble stairs, there is a castle with sculpted columns and domed roofs, a symbol of wealth and luxury - and permanence. It sits against the backdrop of a darkened night sky, where even the stars seem dim and sparse.

Amid all this, at the top of the steps, a girl wearing a sailor uniform trimmed with lace and satin and pearls sits and stares into space as though oblivious to the muted atmosphere or anyone approaching; her face is utterly still. A tiara crowns her blond hair, worn in the signature style of the Silver Millenium royal dynasty.

The princess plays a small lap harp, the only notable sound. Her tune is gentle, but lonely and yearning, a constant ache for a past long gone. A close look reveals that the harp bears the sigil of Mercury.

"But he -- " why did her voice catch in her throat as she started to speak this time? What was this tightness in her chest that started to rise. "He's only in America. Not... not gone forever."

Serenity looks Usagi in the eye for perhaps the first time.

"Are you certain?" she asks, with a dreadful calm that does nothing to erase the hard glint in her expression.

Something about the look sends a cold chill racing through Usagi's small body. Unconsciously, she takes a half-step back, "Of course he... I saw him. We went to the airport together!" A strange sort of desperation started to creep into her voice. "I- I saw him... we were together! And then... " her words seemed to drift off somewhere far away, even from her own ears, "And then..."

Serenity does not relent. Whether because of her connection to Endymion, or because the girl dreaming in her body knows it from Usagi's other dreams, she does not believe that the prince is well.

"What happened to Endymion then?" she prompts.
