The Protagonist

Mia is the protagonist of this composition. Once a member of a human society that flew away from Earth towards a new planet to live on, Mia has now become the sole survivor of her race's own demise; turning into a bounty hunter that goes from planet to planet looking for missions to complete, resources to gather and of course, tales to tell her new and only friend, Kitia.

The Scene

The main scene is a natural satellite that orbits Mia's universe's Earth. Due to humanity going almost extinct further away from "Earth", the planet has healed itself slowly over time. On her current mission, Mia takes the time to take a look at it: she never was in Earth before, but she did read a lot about it in books and heard of it from older humans. Earth wasn't necessarily her home, but it reminded it of her civilization; who she was part of before, now just an exile of sorts.

The Companion

Kitia is not a cat, but she looks like one for sure! She has four ears, only two legs and is made of a plasma-like substance, always glowing and floating wherever she goes. Mia saved her from an attack from Kitia's own species, and have since become the best of buddies.

She's very bubbly and outgoing, contrasting Mia's more calm and serious personality.
