Audio Diary: Remember the Beach

Mi hija, how is that hailing coming?

Almost done.

Don't use too much solder on the circuit.

Dad, I've done this like a thousand times, okay?

You're right, you're right. My little girl knows what she's doing.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Cooper tells me that the troops are closing in.

Then, we'll defend ourselves. Let me get back to work. I have a lot to...

Please?

Close our eyes.

Dad.

Just give me one minute, mi hija.

Fine.

Do you remember when Mam and me would take you and your brothers to get some ice cream and sit by the beach?

Of course.

Remember the sand, the wind, people just walking along, nothing to worry about? Can you see it?

Yes.

What you see in your head right now... I never want you to forget. What our planet was before terraforming, the wars, and everything got so...

Okay, Dad.

Take this recorder. Whatever happens, you'll always be able to hear my voice. And mija, let people know this place was worth fighting for.
