Prologue

I hate it here.
I'm stuck on this hot, boring slab of rock simply because I joined a club whose goal was to overthrow our "glorious" ruler, Lin the Lovable. Lin is in fact a complete liar, but did anyone listen to us when we said she was secretly printing counterfeit money in an attempt to steal the whole Federation's fortunes and live rich-beyond-belief on Terra? No! It's a wonder I haven't heard news of some mysteriously wealthy lady building a palace of opal and pearl in the middle of the Gaul countryside yet!
Oh, have I not introduced myself?
Excuse my manners, the Terrans' lack of them must be rubbing off on me. My name is Sora June Potts. I am fifteen, or at least I will be in, you know, June. I am a former Obstacle Course Racer, current student on Terra, and ex-citizen of the Aerial Federation. My history comes later, because right now we, reader, have to go to school.
