The Voyage

Usually SF genre is limited inside the scientific imagination. The name itself means “Science Fiction”, and civilization and technology appearing in it is mostly within the boundary of human’s recognition of science even though it verges on fictional fantasy. The reason why the space appears as a main stage of SF is originated from the era of the genre’s birth when the new frontier stimulating the curiosity to the unknown was space.
However, such background forced space to be a reclusive property of SF genre and blocked its possibility to be the stage of pure imagination. That was the trigger to start this work. The universe in this work is set up to be a voyageable space full of romance. This simple set-up enabled to create the story about space unlike the SF so far.
