Stepping down onto Actaeon was simultaneously thrilling and underwhelming.
It was thrilling because this was a new world, one that I had never been to before and never experienced, and now I was free to walk across its surface. Something that I had only ever dreamed of back in my home universe.
Now, yes, there was the fact that I had already been walking around Prespian City for over a week, but in my mind, that didn't really count.
For a start, I hadn't actually walked around on the surface of the planet where Prespian City was located. There wasn't even a surface to walk on, thanks to the water world nature of the planet.
For a second thing, I hadn't flown there in a spaceship. I'd just kind of woken up there one day. It didn't have the same thrill as getting in a ship, flying to a place, and then leaving the ship to explore it. That was some real sci-fi stuff right there.
However, yes, it was also underwhelming.
