5. Last Messages Home: Audio Letters Never Sent
There are moments in spaceflight no one trains you for.
The long silence after Earth slips out of view.
The weight of decisions that can’t be shared downward.
The people you love — and the words you never quite say while there’s still time.
Last Messages Home is a backer-exclusive audio collection of private recordings made by the Olympus Dawn crew during the mission to Mars.
Each message is addressed to someone left behind.
A partner.
A sibling.
A mentor.
A parent.
A friend who didn’t survive.
None of these messages were ever transmitted.
They weren’t meant to explain the mission.
They weren’t meant to justify the choices.
They were recorded in the quiet moments — when no one was watching, and the future still felt fragile.
These are not speeches.
They are not confessions.
They are the truth that only comes out when leadership has no audience.
This is what the future sounds like when no one is listening.
SPOILER ALERT: These audios alude to events that happen across the series. Best to avoid if you haven’t read any of the books yet.
Xanthe Waters: A commander reflects on love, loss, and the cost of choosing humanity’s future over a shared one.
Troy Bruin: A celebrated mission leader confronts the quiet hero who became a father when he couldn’t.
Jonas Seaborn: A survivor speaks to the friend he lost on the Moon — and the guilt that refuses to stay buried.
Serena Fox: A woman on the edge of the impossible admits her doubts — and the love that helped her overcome them.
Madison Floyd: A rising leader reckons with ambition, inheritance, and who she is when there’s no one left to impress.
Xavier Consus: A powerful founder offers hard-won counsel to a younger leader — and quietly hands over the burden.
