Dominion
“All six of its shuttle bays were empty. Meia ran a trace, found signals on Hayt-13, and left behind that dead world.
• • • Hayt-13: an ice giant, mantled by layers of water, ice, ammonia, and methane, colored cyan by the absorption of red light due to its methane clouds.
Hayt-13: uninhabitable by most forms of life.
Meia located the shuttles. They were clustered around a single spot, in the lee of a great frozen slope. She sent a signal, but received no reply. She tried again as the Varcis dr...ew closer to the surface of the planet. If they were still alive, they would be in stasis. It would take them time to wake.
She prayed.
And her prayers were answered, just as she became the answer to the prayers of others.
“Varcis, we hear you.”
The image that appeared before her was hazy, but she recognized the face immediately.
“Menos?”
On the screen, the face of the Mech she had not seen for so many years broke into a smile of disbelief.
