a million points of light ascending to the sky

It's been a long time, even by their standards.

Centuries to millennium to eons- the remains of the Firstforged all trudging along, all in their own ways. As far as Vector Prime knows, he's one of if not the only one still attempting to follow his original purpose, even if he did spend ages within a private dimension trying to hide from it all. The worlds. Its people.

His own past.

But once again absorbed in to the timestreams, one again charting the course, the ebb and flow of time- here he finds curiosity, then alarm, then all the more reason to seek out one of the few he believes is still out there. Still alive.

Still themselves, most importantly.

Vector Prime lands on the metallic platform, gazing up at the sanctuary that his sibling has made for themselves. It looks old; ancient by anyone's standards but his own. Even so, it is not without some reverence that he steps forwards, wings folding behind him as he ventures through the entrance.

Despite what Vector seemed to think, Solus has never traveled far from her original purpose.

Oh, she's traveled, fleeing with the same grief and betrayal that caused their surviving...family to scatter to the various quadrants and dimensions of the universe. Traveled and learned and always, always built, sometimes leaving towering, intricate relics in her wake, when the joy of their creation passed into lonely bitterness.

Never weapons. Not again.

But she always returned to her original home; monitoring, updating, correcting, soaking in that vast Presence that alleviated her grief, at least temporarily...

She had dozens of boltholes like the one Vector Prime now found her in, strewn throughout asteroid fields and abandoned worlds. This was her oldest. The most 'lived in', with creations strewn about in sometime closest to her old ways.

She's long since keyed the doorways to her surviving siblings spark-signatures - but she's had only a handful of visits in the past eons. So Vector's sudden appearance is enough to make her start, jerking visibly over the heat of her forge as she turns and stares.
