It was 30 years ago when Elma first came to Earth.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

She'd come with a mission.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

A war was being waged between the interstellar federation[ST:n ]the Ganglion belonged to and another alien civilization,[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 4 |
|
xs12170100_MSG0004 |
and Elma knew that eventually, that war would come to Earth.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

She came to our planet, alone, to save us.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

xs12170100_MSG0006 |
She convinced those in power,[ST:n ]like Secretary Nagi, that the threat was real,[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

|
xs12170100_MSG0007 |
and helped put into motion a grand plan[ST:n ]to preserve all of mankind.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

Her alien tech brought us Skells[ST:n ]so we could defend ourselves...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

It gave us light-speed travel, to ensure our escape...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

|
xs12170100_MSG0010 |
And it led to mimeosomes, to facilitate our survival.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

xs12170100_MSG0011 |
None of this would have been possible for centuries[ST:n ]without the help we received from Elma.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

Everyone says the Earth died that day.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

|
xs12170100_MSG0013 |
But not me—I don't believe it.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

The White Whale couldn't have been the only ark to[ST:n ]escape, either. There must be other survivors out there.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

|
xs12170100_MSG0015 |
Somewhere...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

xs12170100_MSG0016 |
The path ahead may not be clear,[ST:n ]and it certainly won't be easy.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

xs12170100_MSG0017 |
But for now, the important thing is[ST:n ]we're here on Mira, and we're ALIVE.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 18 |
|
xs12170100_MSG0018 |
And we'll live on, for now,[ST:n ]with faith in our hearts that one day,[ST:page p1=110 ]we can once again set out[ST:n ]to search for the planet we left behind...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
