The Yellow Princess and her robot companion, 'Friend'.
Seven cycles passed before the princess felt ready to leave the Amber Citadel and rejoin her family on the royal homeworld.
Her brother, the Scarlet Pilot was still listed as missing, but she knew (because he was that way inclined) that he was almost certainly not 'missing'. Instead, he was likely 'otherwise detained'. *snort* boys! etc etc.
Her best friend, a mechanical man who had accompanied her everywhere since she was less than a baby, advised her to rest easy, but the princess was eager to be away at once. There was a mystery on the space-lanes and she was determined to track it down!
