When Adil Raif was a child, he had a beach ball printed with the continents of Yalaphor. It was during the heady, post-first-contact years so, like most children, he would sit in his rocket-themed pajamas and watch his Saturday morning cartoons filled with peaceful, technologically-advanced Yalapha. Now, with Yalaphor visible from the infirmary windows, he often stopped his work to look out and remember bouncing that beach ball in the waves of the Indian Ocean at his grandparents’ house in South Africa.
