Stardust Sentinels

Beneath a sky that seemed to burn with the fire of a thousand distant galaxies, the ancient windmills stood like slumbering giants in a dark vigil. For centuries, their sails have ground the wind into life, but on this night, they appear to be harvesting the very light of the stars. The canal water, dark and rippled, acts as a silent mirror, reflecting a river of stardust that bleeds across the firmament in shades of bruised crimson and violet.

 

In the absolute silence of the Dutch plains, the boundary between the Earth and the Infinite dissolves into a haunting mist. There is no breeze to move the heavy timber, only the pulse of a universe unfolding its secrets over the silhouettes of the old world. These mills are no longer mere machines; they are spectral guardians of the cosmos, witnesses to the fact that even in the most traditional corners of our world, the night sky tells a story of eternal, gothic majesty.
