The Memory of Blue Sky

What begins as a film crew’s bold expedition to document surviving bastions of civilization across a fracturing earth, soon grows to be more as their flight intersects with an old soldier’s journey to find his long lost daughter, a nation’s hope for an impossible future, and the fate of one who may hold the key to it all. ‘I’m still waiting to hear back from you, ’ he said. ‘Years Syra, it’s been years. I found her, I planned, I got her out. Now she’s here. What would you have me do? Will I tell them? You never had a great deal of love for those in charge here, but you respected them. You know the edge on which I am forced to live, you know I can’t possibly protect her.’ He shook his head and huffed, ‘You have trusted me with too much. You should have told John, he’s her father after all, doesn’t he deserve to know? Shouldn’t this be his responsibility? What should I do with her Syra? You asked me to look for the girl, you didn’t say what to do then! I couldn’t leave her there any longer. I have been waiting for a reply to the words I sent you, but none have come.
