"Has the package been delivered?"
"Yes ma'am. I received confirmation of its arrival a half hour ago. It can be activated whenever you deem necessary."

All his life he had lived out in space, a place where the only thing that could be considered wind was the blowing of air conditioning units.

"What is this?" Avery muttered to himself.
This being his first time on a planet and close to an ocean, he was experiencing a bit of sensory shock from how different it was to his usual environment.
