[ Good girl. ]

There's something seriously wrong with this universe.

[That makes her frown.]

There's something wrong with this ship. It makes it difficult to sense anything beyond it.

There are a lot of things wrong with this ship. But the places we've stopped aren't right, either.

[ She shakes her head. ]

According to the people we've run into, the Tranquility has been missing for over forty years -- understandable, considering how time passes during the jumps . But the Cyllene disappeared at about the same time. No one's found either, save the pirates who showed up here, and they were killed. Strela Outpost vanished off official records, too. But we've been to the latter two while traveling on the first.

Is there anyone left in this galaxy? I read something about planets but did anyone go down to the planets when we were close to them?

We've never been close. We've stopped at three stations. One no one was technically allowed to visit. The second was the brainwashed hivemind and the third was empty.

But there are people left, according to number 19. Joe. [ Beat. ] He was the only one who arrived the nineteenth jump, and he's from this universe, unlike the rest of us.
