So it turns out Guardians aren't tied to Earth, they're tied to humanity, and there's a big freaking difference between the two once the Space Age truly gets underway. It's probably a good thing, in retrospect, considering two of the original Big Four are aliens to begin with, but Jack's not - Jack's originally a weather spirit - and yet, here he is, on a colony ship, protecting the oblivious folks inside.
He punts a Dream Pirate off the hull, grumbling under his breath - he misses Earth, he misses air and water and the sheer amount of space available when you can roam an entire planet - but it's going to be years until he can return, until another Guardian can take his place out here in the stars, and until then - well, there's a lot more creepy nasties out here than just Pitch and his Fearlings and Nightmares, and say what you will about all the things Jack left behind, he certainly won't be bored any time soon.
