––300 kilometers south of New Athens––
On a large island named Kriti, a woman stood on the shore watching the sunrise. She stood in typical scientist's clothing. She wore an orange sweater with her lab coat over it. She also wore dark jeans with comfortable running shoes.
Her brunette hair was placed in a neat ponytail. Her eyes were blue, and she had glasses on, which she straightened every few minutes.
A light pink color adorned her nails, and she wore a small amount of makeup. It made her look a bit more elegant, but also exciting.
The woman stood on the seashore, but her eyes weren't on the rising sun. She was typing on her tablet without care, her eyes jumping between paragraphs and pictures.
The man next to her watched it all with a small headache. He was old, much older than the woman.
