“I trust your Garden was willing to die…I do not think that mine was—it perished with beautiful reluctance, like an evening star—”
—Letter written by Emily Dickinson, 1880
They do not know who they are or where they come from. They do not know how they came to be here, in this overgrown garden with its crumbling observatory. They do not even know their own name. But a series of alarming discoveries–a child’s abandoned toys, a woman’s frantic recording, a smoking ruin–sends them on a desperate quest to unravel the mystery of what happened here, the fate of these vanished people, and the truth of their own identity.
Folks, I’m not kidding when I say this is one of the best fics I’ve ever read. I can’t even explain why it’s so amazing without spoiling it because discovering what it’s about as you go is one of its many joys, but please take my word for it that it’s just REALLY GOOD and if you love Kathryn Janeway then you should read it. (Note the content warnings as you go, though.)
