# The Void Diaries, Pt. 5: No Threats By [The Void Diaries](https://paragraph.com/@thevoiddiaries) · 2026-03-31 scifi --- Starchain: Hammer, Alexander 03 MAR 2556 A.D. Location: Hydro Hotel, Infinity, Luna Infinity is one of the oldest human settlements on Luna and the city recently built its newest terminal adjacent to a transparent dome that covers archaeological sites from the 21st century. As visitors exit their craft, a large glass encasement protects some lunar rovers and temporary habits 3D printed from the late Artemis program. Some tools and raw material inputs can be seen scattered outside the centuries-old habitats. The items inside the encasement were at the cutting edge of Earth technology in the mid-21st century, yet it looks primitive today flanked by the ever-growing network of tunnels and buildings of Infinity. Just slightly off the rim of the main crater, Cabeus B has always been the center of hydrogen extraction in the southern region with Infinity being the main hub of economic activity inside Cabeus B. Infinity is technically independent of all Earth governments, but it has always been considered to be within the American orbit of influence. I think The Stars and Stripes is the only Earth flag I noticed inside Infinity’s main atrium this morning. A large audience gathered outside the terminal and cheered as each of the Reclaimers exited the processing area. Our links were each uploaded with Infinity primary keys – software exclusive to Infinity residents that allows holders to access all public spaces and resources. It felt like a dream. The highly anticipated moment that has long laid on the horizon of the future is now near – Reclaimer is almost official. We were all shuttled via Network B to Infinity’s newest hotel, Hydro. Prior to boarding the monorail, I noticed the bustle of security personnel. Many of them were armed. “Did you notice the rail guns as we approached?” asked Piotr as we sat down on the monorail. “Yeah,” I said, there were three Hyper Range Cannons. “Is that normal?” “They weren’t here two years ago when I visited with my brother.” He gave me a nod as if hinting that I should watch myself. The Directorate was obviously concerned that the first official, off-Earth gathering of all Reclaimers was a soft target. Who is looking to hurt us? I am not quite sure. With my link, I did a quick scan of all the individuals I came into proximity with since landing at Infinity. I came within 10 feet of over 350 people and identified 98% of them: Reclaimers, directorate personnel, Infinity tradesmen, children. There wasn’t a single name or individual out of place. The remaining 2% weren’t properly identified though their potential identities as presented did not seem suspicious. So why the security? I was not sure. Just a few more hours until the Destinations conference. Going to get some rest. The room here is nice, its warm and feels relatively cozy. --- *Originally published on [The Void Diaries](https://paragraph.com/@thevoiddiaries/5)*
