The Assignment

This is a graded reader for language learners. Read the same text in different languages, look up unfamiliar words, and use them for practice on Morpheem.

A nine-year-old on a generation ship forty years from Earth interviews three people who remember the day they left — a practical engineer, a grandmother with memories like pressed flowers, and an Archivist who keeps things nobody else thought to save, including a seed from a tree that is gone forever.
