The Cycles of Revelation

The Medellan Conspiracy: Soren (A Queer Sci-Fi Thriller)

Episode 88: Jevan and Ardyn finally take Camran on a tour of Vestos. Ardyn visits a former mentor.

When there was no sign of revenge from the Society of Sevens, Ardyn agreed to resume their plans to take Camran on a tour of Vestos, while also going to visit their friends and families before heading to Aria’naa. It had been decided they would travel with the Aria’naa fleet when it returned home. However, Fleet Commander Aramys wasn’t planning to depart for a few more weeks, so they still had time.

Once again, Ardyn found himself packing their car with Jevan and Camran. After they had everything packed, Ardyn saw Cylaen, Haeryn, and Fraeya approach with his children. Myria looked especially sad because Ailis had recently returned to Ateria with Andreesen and Marta. Squatting down, he pulled her into a hug. “Remind me, when will you be visiting Ailis?”

“In two days.”

Ardyn pushed a stray strand of his daughter’s dark purple hair behind her pointed ear. “Then why are you so sad?”

“Be- because everything is changing. I liked it better when we all just lived together.”
