Publisher's Synopsis
Children of the Moon is the second part, prelude 1, of Foothold of Tethys, a science fiction saga about life outside of our planet. As the Sun just rose over the horizon, the Moon just turning into another day, the light slowly dimmed the sight of Earth which was always just about stationary in the sky. The Earth was beautiful at night, just a huge blue and white marble. As storms raged and cleared as down there was rainfall, thunder claps and lightning streaking the sky, or possibly even worse, from above the people of the Moon got the best view in the house of it twisting and turning its way over oceans and land masses. But Danielle saw nothing of it all. While out of breath from running the entire way, her mind was clear and focused on a single thing, a single flower Davies had left on the steps of that house close to a week before. Would it still be there? The thought haunted her as she approached, and then recognized it from the footage as it lay between the ribbon tied bundles which mostly consisted of red roses, showing the grievers love for the fallen girl. Though it was faded and wilted, the single white lily, a flower most used for weddings and funerals, stood out and had somehow survived the test of time. Carefully Danielle picked it up, resting the weak stem and flower in the palm of her hand not to break it, almost as if it was a newborn baby. Only then she looked up shyly, wondering if anyone had seen her mad dash and the picking up of the flower, but as luck would have it, the street was quiet and empty. I am sorry Emily, but I am taking this. I hope you understand.
