Lore
A larva that spends its nights looking up. Its kind feed on distant light, and this one already knows which light it wants. The cocoon decides how it gets it.
The Celestial Moth
Moths of the cold high dark that feed on light from very far away. They are patient in a way nothing hungry should be.
