As I went about completing my morning routine - washing my face, preparing my clothes, eating, the like - I found myself wondering just how long I've already been away from Jahi and the others.
Sometimes, it feels like its been millennia that I've been alone; time seems to draw out and become almost eternal when I wake up alone and go to bed alone.
At other times, it feels like it was just yesterday that I was with my lovers, and that it'll be soon that I'll see them once again.
However, reality is often different, and the reality was that I had been separated from Jahi, Anput, and Leone for almost three weeks already.
I had been truly alone for at least four days when I had awoken inside those snowy, frozen mountains, before I ran into the Arese and lived amongst them.
Then I spent a few days inside of Scythiara, before we departed for Polaris, which had been a multi day journey.
Whew~
