"What do you see, Marrim?"

"I see...a view of endless space. There are stars everywhere. Beautiful, really. I've never really stopped to look at them."

"What do you see, Marrim?"

Marrim shifted her weight from one foot to the other as she silently gazed out of a large portal on one of the decks of the Liberator. She gazed coolly out into the void of space and narrowed her eyes.

"I see a new start for myself," she whispered in her native tongue. She let her eyes fall out of focus until she saw her own reflection in the portal. Clasping her hands behind her back, Marrim looked back out into the starry expanse.

"I see opportunity here, Kaaru, but you know all about that, don't you?"

Finally, perhaps, she could move on. And the Liberator could help her. Shaking her head to clear her thoughts, she began to make her way down one of the many halls of the grand ship, feeling a rare, if not small, smile grace her lips.
