“Halstead let me take in the wonder of it for a few moments before he spoke. “Do you remember the Titan Atlas, from Greek mythology?”
I gave the slightest nod, unwilling to lose even a second of the vision I enjoyed.
Halstead walked back to the window. “The Greeks saw the heavens as one great dome. They imagined the stars were attached to the dome and that it spun upon Atlas’s shoulders, which caused the stars to rise and set.”
As I gazed at the stars, I imagined the dome slowly spinning, held up under the strength of Atlas. But the weight of it. “How does he bear it, do you think?”
I hadn’t even realized I’d spoken aloud until Halstead made a sound of consideration. When he spoke, his words were strained. “It is simple. He has no other choice.”
