Personal log
I find myself in an odd position; able to comment on an archaeology dig of a civilization that disappeared over three centuries ago. I've directed them to the island where I used to live. Scans have shown no survivors of my people anywhere on the planet. All that is left now are pottery shards and a few foundations of our buildings. I'm told they did find a boat that had been hidden in a cave on another island.

I tried to hold the scientists enthusiasm, but how do you explain to them "I knew them"? While on one level they know this, it is still hard for an archaeologist to grasp that concept apparently. Still, at least we're not entirely forgotten, and that is some small comfort.
