We were the Children. We planted. We sang. We repopulated.
Papa said we were one no matter how many of us there were. Our bodies were uniform, smooth and little. Our skin was grey as the sky of Polaris.

We were stronger, smarter, more adaptable to live and thrive here. They had lost their chance a long time ago with Earth.
Polaris was our home. We were the apex predator of this planet.
