Just a Story #1 — Loga

November 4, 2443.

The crew of the IL-4-Cow cargo freighter gains two new members. One of them is a thin, quiet fifteen-year-old boy who only speaks when spoken to. The others think they know what that means. His name is Loga. Born on Trilunnis. With no home to return to.

Loga runs. Not as a hero. Not as a traitor. Simply as a human being. Sometimes he runs willingly, with joy. Other times he runs because he has no choice. Often, he doesn’t even realize he’s running. Those who’ve seen too much—who know too much—are often forced down that path.

He travels the galaxy, completing tasks, gathering knowledge, making friends, and discovering love. Along the way, the boy becomes a man, and for a moment it seems his life might finally fall into place—until the past he thought he’d left behind comes crashing back.

In a world where silence often speaks louder than words, Loga’s story may be just one among many.
But perhaps it is the one that matters most.
