"Indeed it has. I see that you've been doing well. Hell, it looks like you've barely aged!"
"Perhaps, but that would be due to the fact that I am currently using my Phoenix magic. IF it weren't for that, or even Apotheosis, for that matter, I'd still look like a wrinkled old man."
"Yeah."
"And now, who might these two young men be?"
"They're--"
"Oh! You're Crusher, right? You worked with Theos and the other Generals after us."
"..Yeah. I believe that you're Theos' father, Reo. It is an honor to finally be meeting you."
Reo and Crusher shake hands, while Atlas simply bows, being able to do even that in his state of panic, confusion and shyness.
"It's nice to meet you, sir! I am Atlas, one of Akio's comrades!"
"Likewise, Atlas. I am Reo Phoenix, the father of Theos II and the grandfather of Akio. Now, please, raise your head, you don't need to show so much respect to an old man like I."
