Hello, friends, and are traveling away from Earth.

As Nora and her father got ready for bed, they heard a story from the storybook artifact,

and Nora's dad fell asleep next to her.

The next morning, Nora wakes up early and watches as they move away from Earth.

When her father wakes up, they head to the lab to study the storybook and are very surprised at what they find.

Nora finds an old artifact, part five.

It was early morning on the cruise ship Pandora, and the travelers were just starting to wake.

The air control system started pumping fresh scents throughout the ship, a unique

combination of the floral and fauna that always bloomed on blue in the early morning.

This was a preferable way to signify the start of the day, at least compared to alarms, beeps and

bops that used to be so common. Technically, it wasn't really mourning, as that concept of time was

tied to the rising and setting of the sun. Still, the ship enforced these strict, segmented parts of the day

so that travelers would feel comfortable and well-rested.

Nora was the first to wake up in their cabin.

For some reason, her father had fallen asleep beside her bed and was covered with one of the

extra blankets. She could hear her mother's heavy breathing in their bunk. Nora knew Pandora was

bidding farewell to Earth's orbit and starting their journey back to their home planet.

She didn't want to miss the views from their cabin's portal.

After freshening up, she went to get something to drink from the nutrition bar on the far side of

their room. She could order whatever she wanted, and it would produce it quickly.

Still, she was very thirsty, and so she settled for water with a splash of flavor and added nutrients.

Nora sat at their portal window to watch as Pandora left Earth's orbit.
