The wall was large enough to cover most of the horizon but not tall enough to hide the stars at night. When the guards had gone to bed and the rest of the world was silent behind their own walls, Ellie would go out and sit on the roof to see what constellations she could find. She would always first search for Polaris and move on from there. the stars were the only way out of this prison.
The doorbell rang in the middle of the night when the sky was the darkest and the stars were the brightest. Ansel climbed out of bed with one hand on his hip and the other rubbing his eyes. There should be no one this late at his door and he wasn't expecting anyone other than the sandman to ever see him this late. And yet again the sound rang though the house.
