6444, 82nd Light
I watched the light grow stronger the longer she held her form. Finally, contact with home. After a over a revolution we can finally find our welcome. I made my way back to the statuesque Earth woman. A voice spoke assertively through the orb she held suspended in her hands.
**I see... thank you for the report, and I am genuinely thrilled to see you've both returned safely. We'll have a carrier sent your way. Hold tight, Amreine.**
The orb splashed away, and the woman's focus returned. I met her eyes as the violet glow faded back to a cool blue.
"I'm in your debt, Amreine." She only smiled.
