In Memoriam

From the personal files of the Cosmic Shipwright, widow of the Quantum Architect Our first starship vanished a year ago. We still do not know precisely what happened. My partner, the Quantum Architect, has left behind a legacy and a mystery. As far as we can derive, My Love finally became one with the cosmos. Sitting at the controls aboard our first test flight, they merged with infinity, overwhelmed by rapturous psychic contemplation of the heavens. Our test ship never returned. Now I labor with my own crude tools, left to reforge my work and my life from the wreckage. More of my solar starships have begun their journeys into the Great Night. I have begun work on better engines, prototypes that can propel our vessels through hyperspace. And on some nights, I dream of a technology that can leap for the stars like the mind and soul of my lost partner, launching us into the unknown. As I reach for the light, I refuse to succumb to the darkness. I sit in My Love's laboratory, just as I am now, reading their journals and writing my own. And sometimes, when all is darkest, I attempt to cast my own mind across the cosmos. Infinity beckons.
