X pauses to look at Zephyr in the dim light with surprise. "Eitria?" he asks. "I had the same ones. The fog, and the hole in the ground?"
X doesn't know anything about stars or constellations; there aren't any of either in Actacea. He still remembers the first time he caught a glimpse of the infinite cosmos above Earth, sprinkled with twinkling little lights, and got so overwhelmed he nearly fell backwards off the roof. But dangerous and misleading fog? That, he recognises. And Eitria's sense of hopeless without a sky to guide her... Liz knew people who could navigate by the stars.
"You don't think all of that happened on this ship, do you?" X looks around at the narrow spaces they're walking through, notably absent of ground holes, fog, and vines.
