The Band

It starts with an empty hangar near Regensburg - a decommissioned aircraft hall with a six-sided glass dome in the roof, where the light falls in honeycombs across the concrete. Vio named it the Oculina, after the coral that grows in the dark and glows in the dark. She didn't go looking for a band. She stumbled into one, and held it together with a stubbornness she'd never have granted herself. Six cells, one light.
