Everything and nothing happens over the next three weeks.

Just as Cyrillius said it would be, I’m treated just like an employee, not a prisoner. The guards leave me alone. I’m moved to new quarters where there are no bars on the windows, no locks from outside the door. I’m given my own full wardrobe and all the comfort supplies I need. I have my own employee ID scanned into my connect-link.

I get full reign of my lab. And it’s my lab. No one else is permitted to enter it without my permission. I’m offered an assistant, which I turn down. I like working on my own.

So I legitimately start working on some new designs. I’m actually excited about them, even though I know I have to hope that I never get to see them to completion. Because hopefully I will be getting out of here.

Edan was successful in disabling The Corsair enough he can’t get off Isroth. They don’t have the parts on-planet to fix it, and it’s going to take four weeks to get them here so he can “leave.”

In the time being, he manages to kill one Kinduri almost every single day, and wherever he’s stashing the bodies, apparently it’s a slam good place, because neither of us hears any kind of alarm sounded over someone methodically slaughtering Cyrillius’ real security.

I only dare try to reach out to Valen twice over the three weeks. Both times he just shuts me out, telling me to keep lying low.

It tells me a little bit about where Kaelea must be located. He’s far enough away it’s taking him weeks to get here, even with The Black Arrow, one of the fastest ships in the galaxy.

I hate that I don’t know what is coming. I hate that I have no idea what Valen is going to do when he gets here. I hate that I don’t know how to plan for whatever is to come.

All I can do is stay on Isroth, working for the man I hate more than anything in the galaxy, and pretend that this is my life.

So as I walk to my lab one morning, I have to mentally escape. I’m already feeling defeated and exhausted and trapped.

So I think back. To my time on Salypso. I think back to a time of me lying in bed. I think of the future.

I pull on the first vision I had on the Nero-inhabited planet. I think of how it felt when I had that vision of Valen coming for me. I think of how it felt to be on that planet, just the two of us.

It had to be Kaelea. It was so peaceful, so perfect. Just like Valen has described it. We could live there someday, the two of us. And someday we could raise our children there. A boy and a girl.

But I push those memories aside. I pull up the memory of the two of us building our home there. I remember how it felt forming the earth with Neron.
