Treasure Planet - eARC

by Hal Colebatch

  So one day, not too far off, we shall go to that ancient world and perhaps see once again the dark towers and the relics of a race that died before my own was born. Trying, so hard, as they did, to pass on something of what they had learned of this universe to those who came later. I still don’t really know anything about them save that: They had a certain nobility and a need to leave a record. I can understand that and admire it. There’s a determination to defy time and destiny there, and it resonates with something inside me. Whatever comes of their knowledge, I shall feel grateful to them for trying. And I would like to go back one day and know them a little better.

  But that’s another story.
