They say the city that sits on the horizon at sunset is nothing but cosmic dust. I say otherwise. I've been there. For some reason I left. I can't remember the reason. I can't remember anything about it. I seek answers. I have to return. So last night, or maybe it was five days ago, I set out to find it. I'm on the right path, one of many I think, each of them hidden and easy to fall from.

The zodiacal lights are an optical illusion, like the appearance of a watery oasis on a scorching desert horizon. That's what one person thought, before following the lights, and stumbling upon a deeper cosmic mystery.

What did they find?

Maybe you'll find out in this episode.

Find out what happens when the potion is consumed.

How will she use that power?
