"First left after the eleva.... No that was the labs." He says. "Have I been here before?" It seems he will be of little help. Now, the helmet concealed his ironic grin.

There are several Tenno ships waiting there, along with every type of ship from fighters to Dreadnoughts. The Dreadnoughts seem of orokin design, while the small fighters do not match any design aesthetic you have seen so far. -Hermes examined the ships, then.- "I've been cleared. Where can I set this ship down?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infested my palace like cockroaches. My sister will prove you...." "Right." Death says. You round the corner to see him upend a bag. The heads of the Twin Kweens fall to the ground. The shade of the Elder Kween recoils. "How dare you." She says. "We are..." "You." Death says. "Are nothing more than an echo of a lost empire. You exist because we desire answers. And your comfort in this existence depends the value of your intel." The Kween grabs the obsidian bars, then recoils. "You may not have a physical form anymore." Death says. "But even beings of data and energy can experience pain." He turns to Evans. "Ahhh, Acting Warlord." He says. "We have contained the shade of the Elder Kween. Would you like to ask her anything?"

It also says that transportation will be arranged. You can hear the sounds of someone practicing Kata coming from a side corridor. You can also smell fresh air and flowers.

Nevertheless, he gave in to his curiosity. Two tenno are practicing kata. An Oberon and an Excalibur The Excalibur flows through the forms, the movements obviously an artform in his mind. The Oberon is more deliberate. His movements mimic those one would use in combat. There is a weight behind them, not a carefree motion of the standard practitioner. "And you did not accompany her." The excalibur asks. "She is after all, your wife." "She requested that she be allowed to deal with this on her own." He says. "Besides, she is using transference. She wanted me here in case anything happens and she needs to be disconnected. Not to mention that our son is due any day now, and these things rarely happen at convenient times." "And yet you are in a garden practicing kata." The Ecalibur says. "I needed fresh air." He says. "The Cephalon will alert me if anything changes. I cannot help her if I am stressed." You may recognize the two as Jas and Philip, two of the previous initiates, now fully fledged Tenno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The garden is full of flower petals, drifting in the breeze and the air currents caused by the two tenno. They lend the area a living feel. The room feels responsive, yet peaceful, a place for one to examine oneself in the full. The walls are smooth stone and the room is courtyard sized, every inch carefully crafted.

A voice says. "So. You. Are. Hermes." A young blonde man stands in the doorway to the landing pad, a keen eye would note sores on his wrists, much like one would have from wearing cuffs.
