《Intergalactic Travel Guide》 — "Top 100 Interstellar Vacation Destinations," No. 55
"Datta Vadhi Planet"
Amid the frequent interstellar conflicts and adventure narratives, Datta Vadhi stands out with its tranquility and understatement. Despite only securing the 55th position in the "Top 100 Interstellar Vacation Destinations" from the 219th issue of 《Intergalactic Travel Guide》— an awkward and easily overlooked spot — it continues to attract tourists with its unique charm. After all, beyond the label of a vacation destination, it's hard to encapsulate this planet with mere words.
A constant influx and departure of tourists encapsulate the daily life of this planet.
And similarly, it encapsulates the everyday life of Leen.
"If everything could stay the same, I wish for these days to loop endlessly to my end."
So, what exactly shattered the routine?
A casual gathering on a day off,
An unexpectedly assigned task,
Or perhaps, a raindrop falling on the brow?
Leen keeps retracing the past, tugging at the threads, attempting to find the tangled beginnings.
"Just a little more, just a little more, just a little more..."
Eventually, all threads led to that day, a day ordinary yet extraordinary.
When he looks back,
The past has become a whirlpool.
"What does it feel like to put your hand into the whirlpool?"
"Surprisingly, I don't want to pull it back."
