“Hello?”

----------------------------------------

The light packet had been lost for 40 years, 5 months, and 16 days. It had been lost so long, no one remembered it had ever existed. So many things had happened between that frantic day and the present that finding information about it was nearly impossible.

No one knew this human’s name. They didn’t know where they were from or how old they were.

Five souls had been lost. Was this one of them, or all of them combined? How had they survived? Had they been conscious inside the star? If so, what was it like?

Everyone had questions. Some serious, some suspicious, and some silly.

They would have to wait until the human felt well enough to answer.

In the meantime, Mirror Station 07396 celebrated.

Recovering something thought gone forever is always cause for rejoicing.
