A story about a monk cultivating her bonsai starships who is forced to look beyond her gardens into a larger world of space politics. In typical Yoon Ha Lee fashion, there are delightfully no details about how these bonsai are starships, they just are. It's hard to blame a short story for being too short, but the ending felt abrupt in a way that didn't quite resonate with the rest of the story for me.
