Chapter 1: The 11th Pilgrimage

He didn't want to leave her, he'd come here with the intentions of proposing but things change. Before coming here he'd been offered a command position of a project called Terra Nova. That had been the final decision that convinced him he should marry her. If they were married she'd be one of the first to join him in this new place. However, he couldn't bring himself to do it when she told him she had just been given her dream job and career in chemistry was finally coming to life. So he did what he thought best for her: he caused a scene, caused a big argument that ended them. But now she's here and she's got a big surprise for her ex-lover.
