[ ¡Santo Miguel Alcubierre! An astronavigator. Adela tips her hat back in interest. Given the dangers in FTL travel, they were always worth their weight in gold, especially when the Alcubierre Drive software glitched to hell. She hopes she'll get to serve with her. ]

[ However... once the question about 'Earth' is made, Adela's expression darkens. She looks to her side, lets her hat cover her, and crosses her arms. ]

I don't know anything about Terra. All I remember was the stories mis Tatas, my great-grandparents, used to tell me when I was a tiny girl about what la Vieja Tierra was. And what happened when it became 'Terra'.

He told me that a bunch of loonies turned it into a 'Citizen Federation', where only vets and the people of the Junta could hold political office. My family fled from its hold the moment they all realized what 'service for citizenship' would really mean in the future. Soon after, a lot of my people did, too. And established ourselves in Tonatiuh, a star in the Camelopardalis constellation, where Aztlán was founded. The Capital of my sector.
