Chapter 8 - First Mira, KAra-Vaen

Eve Meets the First Mira on planet Kara-Vaen, Year 3081 (Eve Age: 80).

Kara-Vaen was a world of scorched ochre sands, abandoned mines, and rusted water extractors wheezing beneath triple suns.

The moment she stepped onto a dune ridge, she spotted the conflict below. A diplomatic envoy—five Saiyarans—facing off against twenty armed mercs from the Gelt Mining Confederacy. Eve recognized the setup: false negotiation, probable execution.

All five Saiyarans had dropped to their knees—except one.

A young woman stood her ground. Her diplomat's sash burned under the harsh sun, but she didn't flinch, even with a kinetic pistol against her temple.

Eve narrowed her eyes.

Moments later, the mercs were unconscious or groaning. Their weapons slagged. Eve appeared like a ghost between gunfire—disarming, disabling, vanishing into the wind.

Mira looked in her direction and whispered, "Thank You."
