Upon coming out of the Teleportation Gate, Valeria and I are greeted by every high-ranking member in Antares. It is nothing out of the ordinary, but the way they see me slightly exasperates me. I have been treating them like colleagues, so seeing the reverent look on Decima and Maxine's faces quite weirds me out. I am aware of my official status, but the amount of attention it gets is slightly off the chart.
"Well, it has been some time, everyone," I greet. "Please, be casual with me."
"We will treat you the way we have been treating you," Maxine answers ahead of everyone. "You will be fine with that, won't you?"
"You know me well, Maxine."
