Solitude

Kiruss sat by himself in a small transport shuttle destined for Pas La Fin's ship hanger array. Not so much a private shuttle as the many technicians and other support staff from the tower simply chose not to sit in the two seats that were free on either side of him, choosing to stand. It didn't bother him, why should it? In fact it should be expected, he was something much more than them and likely ever would be due to genetic limitations. He immediately brushed this thought off though for fear of creating himself some kind of superiority complex. Kiruss was about as domestic and plain as a capsuleer could come and he was happy like that.

As the small shuttle entered the hanger and came to a light stop he shuffled himself off the shuttle and was pleased that Kat had manged to bring himself in a sizable fleet of mining ships. Things were finally coming together, and hey, at least he was not alone on this tower anymore. Though in the past few days he had not been that alone anyways. But it was nice to have a fellow corporation member roaming the halls, even though Kat spent much of his time in the asteroid belts. He was driven and aware of the bottom line and Kiruss was happy to have him on board.

He moved himself through the halls of the large hanger structure. James had made a visit himself and Kiruss was glad that he seemed pleased with the set-up, though he had not stayed long. The man seemed to not like wormholes that much, Kiruss was happy to have someone that remained more on the outside anyways. He would make a note to ask James if he actually had any experience with wormholes as Kiruss had neglected to give James any sort of formal interview, he was a good man, very driven by his own morals.

"Monsieur Dasun?" A voice piped up behind Kiruss and he turned on his heel to face a technician, datapad in hand.

"Ouais?" he responded, as kind as possible, again he didn't want some ominous oppressor vibe going around but there had to be a good reason one of them had piped up to talk to him.

"The new modules have been fitted to your Celestis, you can begin focusing on Ladar sites, Mlle. Madeveda has apparently left you several sets of coordinates." he blurted out quickly, his eyes on his datapad the entire time.

Kiruss nodded, thanking him and watched as he scurried off into some corridor. He sighed to himself lightly and made his way down a series of turns until he found where his pod was being kept, he turned to the technician that was stationed there to keep it prepared at all times, signaling to begin the process.
