The first thing she felt was the softness beneath her. A bed. Sheets tucked around her like she had been sleeping for days. The air smelled faintly of wild flowers, the blue wildflowers that only grew on the blue planet.
Her eyelids fluttered open, and for a moment she thought she was still drifting in the dark. Her vision was blurred, the light was too bright, and her head was too heavy to lift. She groaned softly and turned to one side, her hand pressing against her forehead.
This was not the ship. This was not the endless void.
It was her room.
Not the room in Lunaris Prime where she had lived with Xu Kai and Aerish. No. This was her old room in the Dawn Base, on the blue planet. The place where she had lived before her memories had returned.
Her chest tightened. Slowly she sat up, her body trembling as if every bone inside her was still remembering the blast. Her mind was foggy, broken into pieces that barely fit together.
