Fifty-Nine: 3032 AD

In the deep black gulf great engines throbbed. A ship more vast than many planet-bound cities began to move. Her commander ordered maximum tolerable acceleration. She had fallen months behind her sisters.
Clouds of smaller vessels gathered to her. They had finished their part in the Shadowline War. There were no more debts to pay.
The Starfisher decision-makers were saddened because the results had not been more positive. But history, like everything else, is seldom fair. The balance had been rectified, and that was enough.
The great ship fled ever farther into the deep.
