Legit. That makes a good and sincere title

[Before the beginning, on the verge of an open cluster]

  Suddenly, the silence broke. Amid the motes of the galactic dust, light shone for the first time - not from the smouldering ambient[1], not from any other star, but from right here.

  Powerful - due to proximity - solar winds sweeps across what was left over. At this moment, the new star connected with its billions of siblings, and rested its senses at the rest of the formal cloud now orbiting itself. Alone, like another granule of dust, our new star dwelled on its past...

  Along a sudden burst of waves and in fact comprising the waves, enormous quantities of substance departed from an unfamiliar new point of light[2] - the universe has been calmly informed of the death of a star, one that formed somewhere else and some time ago. In a timeless speculation, not being to express much, it could also have felt little. Stars emerge all the time.

  The disturbance carried on. Somewhere on its way, between the stars, dark clouds afloat rippled in the haze. Despite being technically unchanged, the cloud was replenished with teeming motions and emotions: at one "instant", every mote of dust has been assigned to a new orbit. Based purely on the exact distribution of every infinitesimally massed spot, one particle began to fall into another - this often results in near misses - to articulate into bigger clumps.

  Imperfection has also made its way in; though a pattern of "falling" gradually prevails, the process reforms itself. Destruction and interference act in a graceful ritual, making decisions with unmeasurable uncertainty. The particles fell in, each gained or lost angular momentum...

  At last, every factor converged into forming a stable system.

  Now, for a long time into the future, the star is going to live on - for a long time, not knowing that somehow, that insignificant remnants around it will assemble and support evolution and sentience, and that its mass, diameter and orbital period will become standard units of a group of creatures who will also capture, utilise and investigate its existence.

A story has begun in what the very sentient beings define as "randomness".
