I told her so, not once but many times as she lay dying, and when the end was near she finally admitted her guilt. When my ordeal was done, when the last spadeful of this wretched alien dirt had been thrown upon her head, when the last stone had been placed atop her cairn, then I stood over her and spat upon her grave. With my own hands I buried her, digging in the hard rocky ground from dawn through late afternoon, until my arms were afire with pain. It is always with me, the brightest thing in the sky but for the sun. The stars come out, one by one, but the only star that matters burns night and day, day and night.
