A story inspired by this tattoo · fiction
The drift charts said the Halden lane had silted shut the year the second ring cracked, and Mara Venn had them memorised, which is why she trusted the compass less than she trusted the tug's old hand-lever. The instruments wanted her to turn starboard. The lever did not care what the instruments wanted.

Above the console someone had taped a faded print to the bulkhead, salvaged from a school on Lower Deck Four: black letters that read FOLLOW YOUR HEART, and beneath them a plain arrow with a small heart sitting on its shaft like a bead. Nobody on the crew had ever read it aloud. Dace called it nonsense for children. Mara called it the only honest thing aboard.
She had three hours of air, a hold full of dead reactor coils no buyer would take, and a signal pulsing at the same slow rhythm as the reactor at Halden, the one they had switched off the year her brother left. The pulse strengthened as she turned. She did not decide to follow it so much as stop arguing with her own hands.
The lane opened like a held breath. Beyond it a derelict pilgrim hull turned slowly around a single lit window, and in that window someone had left a lamp burning for seventy years. Mara cut the engines, let the drift carry her in, and laid her palm flat against the cold glass where the light was.
