1: Raynott leads Rati, Julia, and the rest of thier small group including silver fox, Aneirin Krizman, and polar bear, Nikhil Kasun. Krizman holds up a flare to study the ceiling.
2: Rati runs her gloved hand over the smooth carved metal of the wall.
Rati: This place doesn’t look anything like the ruins on Earth. Entirely different materials, different structure…
Did the same race build this place?
3: Julia is close to Rati’s side.
Julia: It doesn’t look like the temple they found on the moon last year?
Rati: No, not quite. That was exposed to the lunar surface.

5: He looks forward as he walks.
