With a "click," the train door slowly opened under Colin's tense gaze...
Beyond the door lay an expansive, vast world dark yet not completely black, thanks to the dazzling starry sky.
"Lady of Thorns" glanced casually outside, then withdrew her gaze and briefly explained:
"I've been here a few times before. If I remember correctly, there used to be a transfer station -- well, it's called a station, but it's more like a small fortress world. But now it seems to have completely fallen..."
Hearing her words, Colin, who had been on alert, was taken aback as he looked at the empty expanse outside:
"There's nothing left here. Can you still recognize it?"
"Look at the star map. Although there are some deviations from before, such deviations are not significant over just a few hundred years, so my guess should be correct. Why, can't you read it?"
