Dust of a shattered world, still glowing. The glow is new, Captain. Something here was lit on purpose.

Lumen, arriving in the Amber Expanse

More from the story (spoilers)

A lantern, hung in the dust. Her make. The Hush will not come near a thing that is lit by hand, she wrote. So she lit things.

Lumen, halfway across

I am building lanterns out of wreckage. They hold the Hush off for a while. It does not like a light it did not take.

Captain Vesper's log, on the boss

Look for a corner or a five before taking the first match you see. Power pieces pay far more than plain matches.
Time warp starts you short, but every comet, nova or supernova you forge hands back a move. Forge early.
Stars here count toward the detour. Replay a level for its third star when you are one short.
