Thank you for sharing your story @calluna, I love sci-fi and you have done it very well. Reading your story it reminded me animated moveie "WALL-E" may be because of being lonely there too and trying to survive and live alone. He also had solar batteries and charged htem during the day. I love hte description of the nature and fields, it feels like I am really there. Wonderful work adn I wish you all the best in the contest, fingers crossed,
