When Ves and his family finally returned to the Spirit of Bentheim, the Golden Skull Alliance's visit to Pentahull Station had come to an end.
The Larkinson Clan and its allies made productive use of their time in the Norbit System.
Ves received many reports on what his Larkinsons managed to get done during the days they spent on the space station, but he mainly directed his attention towards intelligence.
Information was more valuable than anything else at the moment, especially in light of Reynard Clarke's unexpected solicitation.
This was why he called over Calabast to his office in person so that he could discuss the latest developments in complete confidence.
"Hello again, Lucky."
"Meow~"
Lucky jumped from the desk and floated over to Calabast so that he could snuggle in her arms.
The cat comfortably purred from the moment that the spymaster began to rub and massage his metal head.
