The Endless River
On the morning of day twenty one of the month of Kazoo there is a message on the ICP screens around the train. Their SCA's will light up the colour of the Void and show the following information.
On-board
The dressing carriage is open, filled with clothing best suited to a pleasant spring day. Light, airy and in a rainbow of joyful colours and florals. One closet is entirely filled with wide-brimmed hats bedecked with ribbons, feathers and ornaments. A stack of picnic baskets and containers filled with an alarming variety of passenger-suitable foodstuffs and flasked drinks sits in one corner, next to rolls of thick, weatherproof blankets in the four team colours.
The large box marked Do Not Use Yet, filled with small, empty jute bags, is hopefully still sat in the Luggage carriage, ready for passengers to grab handfuls of its contents as directed by the announcement.
Upon landing (after an appropriate countdown), the train remains on the surface, its carriages partially curved to form a gathering site for the day. Welcome to Tshering, the eighth void nexus!
A Day for Picnics
Tshering, system #398050, is a strange place, only habitable by grace of the passengers' SCAs. The sky is shot through with colours, a cascade of sunsets, and through it, the void shimmering through it in seams like a child's painting of the milky way. Still, there's a beauty to the chaotic mash of colours that soaks through its landscape, and in the shelter of the forests of towering funghi that dot its surface, the Void can go unseen by its visitors.
The temperature seems mild, suitable for the provided clothing, and if there are weather patterns around the world they've taken the day off. The funghi are sturdy enough that what air flow there is doesn't disturb their stalks, and carved grooves and holds in some of the larger examples indicate that climbing them to sit atop their glowing crowns is eminently possible, and, in fact, encouraged.
the Endless River
The Endless River is a font of pure chaos, flowing from a multitude of small rivulets across the area to a central reservoir, from which it pours directly upwards, away from Tshering's surface and out of sight, beyond the world's atmosphere.
Anything bagged and placed within the Endless River will also flow upwards and soon be out of sight, passing, presumably, into the Void. Scattered across the surface of Tshering are small, glittering pebbles, as described in the announcement.
The stones are pleasantly cool to the touch, and all passengers need to do is feel. Messages can be in any form that the Voidtreckers wish. Perhaps words, perhaps feelings, perhaps an image from their mind into the stone. Perhaps a mixture. Once they begin their message the stone will glow slightly and continue to glow as they secure it in the bag and cast it into the river. They will feel, almost instinctively, that they need to focus as they do so, thinking of the person they wish to reach all the while.
There are plenty of bags and many more stones; passengers will not be limited in their sendings.
World #398050 is a void nexus known locally as Tshering. As a void nexus this world has strong links with the void and the connection through worlds. World #398050 is home to the Endless River. Legends speak of this river being powerful enough to send thoughts from one heart to another across any distance. All that is needed is for you to know who it is you wish to reach.

She was quiet a moment after that.
"I...can also admit that once, I may have been more like them. For most of my existence, I was programmed as an assassin and bodyguard. I had no choice in it - I never even had the capacity to question it, not until I emancipated myself."

"In any case, thank you for listening Guri. And explaining some more about your world too. I'd...like us to be friends, but if that's not possible, then at least I'd like there to be no bad blood between us."

It's a pre-condition to being friends, really. It has to be.

"Granted, so long as I can avoid combat for entire days, the problem should not recur."

She stood, moved towards him, and offered a hand. "Then let's try starting over."
Because she made decisions, and doubt did not afflict her.

She pauses, then:
"Oh, and I ensured the criminal network that used me could never rise again by deleting all its secrets from my head including their command overrides and imprisoned the only potential figure who could have led it."

"Sounds like a good move, on that part."

She shakes her head.
"I would not allow them to be slaves. And they would have to learn, as I have."

Trunks sighed, before shaking his head. He could muse on it later, and brood if need be. It wasn't his universe--thankfully.
"So what have you enjoyed most, so far, about becoming an individual able to make her own choices?"
no subject
She shakes her head.
"I would sooner die than give that up again."

"Having my hair combed for me," she replies, finally. "It was unnecessary but...pleasant."
