Leaving was bittersweet. You were born of this place; from the life inside every kalon; from every story in their hearts; from every discovery they made that allowed them to send of the probe - named xii.vii.GYR, nickname Genesis - that had been pulled towards your planet. It provided the necessary materials that gave you life - and its final destination would provide the address to your home, to be programmed into your ship. Before you left, you took your name from your origin. Xiiviii Gyr Genesis would do, you thought - but then the nurses that had been so compassionate had said, with a sad smile, "that's a bit of a mouthful, how about Xivi?"
You nodded slowly. Xivi Genesis.
Their parting gift was a name. Your parting gift was tears that came unbidden from tear ducts you didn't realise you had.
There would be no suitable ending to this story because things never end, they only change. You didn't found out how you arrived at earth; maybe one day you would return, to finish this mystery. But as much as it hurt to leave those who helped you recover what you had lost, there was still one more piece of you that you needed to gather, up in the sky.
You left for your ship quickly, unable to say goodbye. One day you might return, when you were ready. One day.
