This conceptual piece conveys the bittersweet passage of time, portraying a primordial palaeontologist reuniting with her insectoid companion after the latter died and fossilized during prehistoric times. In the modern era, the palaeontologist reanimates her companion's fossil and the two are finally reunited after spending millions of years apart. The warm and dusty atmosphere is a poignant reminder that though you may love someone so much, you will never love them as much as you miss them.
