Azurat: Voice log entry number 4428.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 4
Azurat: After several missteps, I have made another time jump to a point 6642 years after my initial time of departure.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 5
Azurat: The upgraded V-CORE aboard the Hovercrane is working as expected. Acceleration to Mach 3 is no longer required to make a jump.

Azurat: These important adjustments allowed me to make a jump inside of the Morgan's Gate shortly before it was scheduled to leave Earth orbit.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 10
Azurat: Perhaps it should not have astonished me that the migration was successful. Pleiades-47 is heavily populated and thriving.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 11
Azurat: The people of this world have adapted in some interesting ways but they are very similar to those of us on Earth.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 12
Azurat: Ostensibly, the culture has somehow become vegan and knows nothing of many common vices from Earth.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 13
Azurat: Some physiological changes are apparent in most of the people on this planet, as well.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 14
Azurat: The planet itself has about half the gravity of Earth. There are no seasons. The climate is about 15 degrees colder than Earth in most regions.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 15
Azurat: The atmosphere is surprisingly easy to breathe. The entire planet is covered in lush native vegetation, with some invasive Earth species interspersed.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 16
Azurat: Having no magnetic field, the upgraded quantum locking hover engines have proven to be a necessary investment.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 17
Azurat: The level of technology is comparable to that from my original time period. This indicates some kind of setback along the way.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 18
Azurat: No Earth languages are spoken here but an artificial intelligence translation earpiece is available that eliminates that as a problem.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 19
Azurat: With regard to alien pathogens, advanced nanotechnology smart drugs are freely available to prevent 21st Century style outbreaks.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 20
Azurat: Of course, the problems of war and geopolitical strife still exist in this world. It was a bit disappointing to see the news.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 21
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 22
Azurat: To reiterate: Three weeks ago, I emerged from the jump inside the Morgan's Gate. The ship was an old, abandoned ruin.

Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 26
Azurat: The search for my wife, daughter, and her friend continues. Hopefully my latest calculations have brought me to the correct time period.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 27
Azurat: I am certain that, after an extensive investigation aboard the Morgan's Gate, they are all alive somewhere in this world.

Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 31
Azurat: The many-worlds theory of time travel is correct. It is not possible to travel back to one's exact originating timeline.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 32
Azurat: Fully accepting this reality, I will find my family, no matter how long it takes.
Chapter 3 Scene 18 Frame 33
Azurat: I have all the time in the world.
