Now that was interesting. Madi blinked, looking back over at Clarke with a lifted brow. “Three years?” she repeated, surprise in her voice. “But how is that even possible? I mean, I just saw you. I remember we were going to sleep before we left Earth , but then that’s when something shiny caught my eye. I didn't think that should be there, to be honest, so I went to pick it up and, well, that’s when I came here. But, you’ve been here? And the others have come and gone before?” Madi stiffened a little, her eyes wider as she pulled back.
“How is that fair? Does this place just decide who stays? I know it's not much different than life, but at least death is final. It's not like…someone else can come back and not remember everything.” That part she didn't like. “And what was that message about a war? It doesn't seem like there’s fighting going on, not by how everyone seems to be talking on that network I looked at. Pretty crazy technology .” She knew she had a million things on her mind, but Madi was curious about this place.
