“Have you known Mina for a long time?”

I am mute, so I type on my tablet that plays back replies as audio.

“A storm #veer-ed her shuttle off course. She landed near the village where my family lived. We offered help, and she stayed with us for six lunar cycles.”

My heart broke at the sight of Mina sitting on a bed, her head hung low, hair disheveled.

I lunged and kicked her captor in the back. He fell forward near her bare feet. Mina looked down at him and stomped his head and face with the #heel of her foot, leaving him dazed.

“Ta Ri?” (Dad)

Josher looked at Montor, and once his memory solidified what he suspected, he #galumphed to him.

“Ta Ri!”

Montor swept him up in his arms, and even I was moved. He had not seen his son in over one revolution. Pangs of guilt bombarded my brain.

Mina muses on whether the mysterious Zateim is actually Montor, then retires to her quarters.

The Zateim has captured my imagination as well. In the #solitude of my bed, I hope Mina will not find him, and I pray the Farthest Light could forgive my selfishness.
