Zayra

The dim light of the emergency lamps barely penetrated the dense darkness of the ancient battleship. Beyond the enormous observation windows, the wreckage of thousands of lost ships drifted slowly—a veritable star wars graveyard, forgotten even by navigation charts.

The protagonist's old spacesuit creaked softly with every step. The breath filters worked intermittently, and static flickered across the helmet visor. But the battleship… it was too intact. Too alive for a dead sector.

The door to the central compartment opened with a heavy creak.

There was a strange silence inside. Not dead. Observing.

And then the light before him wavered.

A girl with a soft green glow slowly emerged from the darkness. Her golden eyes flashed in the gloom, and her long tail swayed gently behind her. Her black horns lightly touched the cold light of the emergency lights.

She looked straight at him.

Without fear.
No surprise.
As if I had been waiting for him for a very long time.

The protagonist instinctively reached for the old plasma pistol on his belt.

At that moment, the girl tilted her head slightly to the side, studying his battered spacesuit, the scratches on the armor and the flickering light of the lantern.

• …Human?

Her voice was unusual - soft, but with a slight metallic echo.

She was silent for a few seconds, then took a slow step closer.

• Strange…
  — Usually people here die before they find this ship.

The emergency light flashed again.

And for the first time, the protagonist noticed: the dust around her wasn't working. It was as if gravity weren't affecting her near Zyra.

The girl narrowed her eyes slightly, and then suddenly smiled weakly.

• But you're still standing.
• So... you are either very stupid...
  — or very lonely. 🌌
