Time was irrelevant, air was nonexistent, and light was a delicacy embraced every day by the open sectors of the ship as it floated where gravity was vacant

The halls were quiet, only ten beings filled the three acre solid they called home

The eerie sound of silence was present where they weren’t, stuffing the void of every room and hall unoccupied

One could hear the quiet voices of the few exercising in the gym, while around the corner there were those who played cards amongst one another; a family of sorts

The library held its own librarian, one who knew every book and its exact place, and the kitchen held a chef full of mystery and secrets

Every fifty years the shelves restocked themselves with new knowledge the Earth and its inhabitants had to provide

Every month the food would be freshly restocked with technology unknown to the human race

Their languages differed, yet they lived the same with a million mile difference
