Chapter 10 : A breath of life

A heartbeat, that was all she could hear. Barely conscious, Malnora was trapped in her escape pod. How long had she been asleep? She had no idea; however, the unpleasant sensation coursing through her legs clearly indicated that her situation had not started yesterday. Gathering the last bit of strength she had left, she reached out for the release mechanism, but it didn't respond to the weak pressure of her tired hand. The door was jammed, and the evacuation system also seemed stuck.

Was she doomed to watch herself die slowly, trapped, fossilized for eternity in this tinted glass capsule? Exposed there, for all to see. Like a macabre work of art whose true nature no one would ever truly understand. What a horror.
