{Due to how our ships travel I spent nearly a thousand years without him while he experienced only five years. Even without the Universe, his Earth's humans ....} Her mental words trail off but there's fear and anguish there. Terror and sorrow for people in her family. {I can't live on his Earth and he is getting too old for space travel now. Our child brought us here so we can live out the rest of his life together.}
There was a special kind of pain to be immortal and fall in love with someone who will die but she wouldn't trade her husband for anything or anyone.
Zayda reaches out toward the mental voices. The touch gentle like any child reaching out for something new. There's even a hint of what might be a happy giggle if she were more developed.
Aletayria squeezes his wrist a little and sighs. {My people were like that centuries ago, warlike and destructive. We murdered the other two sentient races and destroyed our homeworld before learning to be different. We have chosen peace since then though it won't repair the damage we've already done.}
Along with the words, if Soundwave is paying attention he might catch glimpse of Aletayria's memories as a young child surrounded by desert while accompanying her mother to look for and collect the last living things on her planet. To save the last of life there from dying away.
{I live here usually. You are both welcome to find us if you need a place to be understood. My family has many species among our members and friends.}
