Dr. Orion Aster grapples with the haunting memories of his sister Luna's tragic fate. As he visits her grave, he reflects on his relentless ambition that distanced them, ignoring her pleas about strange visitors and leaving her alone during her darkest hours and mysterious pregnancy. Her son, Linus, born without family, was put up for adoption upon Luna's maternal death. This only serves to compound his guilt, and drives him to entirely abandon his academic career, realizing too late the need for familial connection over professional accolades. Linus, meanwhile, found a loving home. Watching Linus grow from afar, Orion eventually musters the courage to meet the child and is captivated by his unique intelligence and curiosity. When the Celestine visitors reappear and reveal Linus's special heritage, Orion is told of his role in nurturing the boy's potential. Through mentoring Linus, Orion finds a path to redemption, hoping to atone for his past mistakes. This poignant narrative of regret and reconciliation highlights the profound bond between family and the enduring impact of one's actions. Orion's Remorse is a powerful installment in the Starseed: The Tomorrow Child series.
