*****************

Moya. What a beautiful name. A beautiful name for a beautiful creature.

I'm scared, Moya. Maybe the Elders were right. Maybe I am too young; too inexperienced.

But I want to see the stars. I want to go where only a select few of my kind have gone before, and perhaps, to where none have ever gone.

I want to fly. I want to soar among the stars. I want to see it all.

I have been told that bonding with a Leviathan is the most wonderful thing that can happen to one such as I. I do hope that they are correct. I have given up a great deal to be here with you.

Will you accept me, dear Moya? Will you talk to me? Will you be my friend? Will you let me experience all that space has to offer? Or will you remain ever silent?

Will you, for me, share the stars?
