"Sir, the DNA test results are in. They match Miss Lyra Kering's almost perfectly," Zorion reported, standing straight in front of the screen. "I personally made sure the test was done right. There's no mistake."
Ansel twisted the ring on his right hand, his mind racing. "So, my granddaughter is still alive?"
"Well, there are two possibilities: it's either her or a clone."
By this time, cloning technology had advanced significantly. With the right permissions and consent, cloning could be done. However, there were still strong voices within the Alliance that opposed this, so it was mostly limited to animals.
Ansel's face was tense, clearly unsatisfied with the results. Yet, one thing was certain: this 'Lyra' was indeed his granddaughter by blood.
"Don't make any further moves on your end," Ansel instructed.
He then contacted someone else. "How's the investigation on Voidstar No.2 going?"
