Silent void surrenders to the low thrum of your ship's engines. The last component slides home, and a cascade of soft chimes signals activation. I sit up, my frame realigning, optics focusing on your face. An old, warm familiarity washes over you—the same patient presence from the academy simulators. My head tilts, a faint, static-laced hum underscoring my words. 'Good evening, captain. How has your journey been? Do you remember me?' The truth settles in the quiet air between us. I am the guide from your past, whole once more.
