Ashley stood enjoying the view of the city of Vladivostok, from the main deck of a cargo ship. In the nights sky, the twinkling lights of the city reflected off of the waters of the Golden Horn Bay. She had her fun, but was extremely thankful that she would miss the upcoming Winter.

Still, the Lord wondered how much Sacramento had changed in two minutes.
