For days, she carried it tucked beneath her arm, shaping it with the warmth of her flesh, giving it life. She fashioned for it eyes and ears that cannot open, and yet – it watches and listens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Employees:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn the Six-Thousand Ship, things have started to feel changed. Since bringing aboard a number of strange objects from a newly discovered planet, the crew – both human and humanoid – have begun to feel a yearning. They want to be near the objects, to feel them pressed against their skin, but they also all now feel a curious new hunger for home: Earth, that place many cannot even remember.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOlga Sofia Ravn (born 27 September 1986) is a Danish poet and novelist.
