Join Erich on his journey through the Interstellar Age, as he confronts the challenges of war, politics, and personal identity in a universe filled with danger and intrigue.
A Somber First Impression
Ayumi followed Erich out of the landing pad and into the citadel. Unlike her Great Aunt, she had never been to the Germanic Star-Empire before. But she could tell by the cold and lifeless architecture that she had entered a deeply dystopian and totalitarian society.
Everything about this building was designed to convey one feeling, authority. Everyone who walked past her was dressed in some kind of uniform, whether military or political, Ayumi did not know. And then there was the fact that she was so small compared to these aliens.
Ayumi stood at a height of at five feet and two inches. While the men and women around her were significantly taller. So much so that she felt dwarfed by their hulking figures. She even began to lower her head in fear of looking up at these stern people, many of whose gazes looked at her as if she were some kind of trash.
