It isn't often that a visitor from outer space gets stranded on Earth, but it happens every so often.
When it does, it's an accident.
No one intends to get stranded anywhere, after all.
This visitor is female, a botanist, and a telepath.
The alien carries a Small Gray environmental suit with her.
She is looking for plants that can be grown on her own planet's severely depleted ecosystem.
The alien has just uprooted one when she finds herself stuck on Earth during a planet-wi.
