360 The Message That Brought Hope

(Earth Federation- Alpha Star System)

(Planet Gaia- Peterlor Mansion)

A handsome middle-aged man sat quietly on a chair while staring motionlessly at his wrist communicator.

The warm afternoons rays shone gently through the window and illuminated the study room in a soft glow.

Rows upon rows of books lined the walls and a roaring fireplace made a crackling noise that broke the quiet atmosphere.

Duke Peterlor was feeling completely overwhelmed since a message from his daughter had unexpectedly appeared on his communicator.

It had been over four months of not knowing whatever his precious child was alive or dead. 

He had never stopped searching for her. 

Every passing day since her disappearance seemed to blur into a meaningless stream of time.

This was a never-ending nightmare. 

One cannot fathom the pain of a parent who has lost their child.
