Next: Session 28
- (the mob in their attempt to kill lucas halo bc he was going to kill Meiko, Luka was inadvertently injured and killed. Mob told us that she is dead alongside lucas halo <- what xep is sticking to)
- Cultivation time - Asper, 26, miku, vespucciano, siryu
- Go off planet on The Blue Angel v1
- Go to lovely section of nearby planet full of green forests and old temples
- Far far away from most major cities
- On an island the size of new zealand
- Most cultivation sects bc of Solara Imperium remains hidden
- Song Tian Temple
- One of 3 space ships total in the large temple area
- Far side of the pond, see a meditating vlaka
- Standard greeting is to assume a meditation stance and speak telepathically
- As: greetings sect leader
- “Greetings asper. And who are you fellow cultivator?
- 26: mmmm greetings we are the 26 laws of power
- “What sect?
- 26: LianHua Sect
- “How are they?
- 26: mostly dead
- “Solaran imperium got them?
- 26: they were killed by someone named persanare
- Discussion about how persanare killed the lianhua sect before remembrance streams. Sects didn’t war outside of their galaxy, so he was either from that galaxy or that same sect
- “Have you come to enforce your core? Is it time for you to discover your true self?
- As: it is not no. i still have much more learning to do. It is not yet time. But i have brought friends
- Raises his blind eyes towards everyone, at vespucciano “are you a cultivator
- “Yeah sure!
- As: 26 is hoping to train him
- 26: we think he has potential
- “It will require a lot of work and meditation, but he will have immortality to do so. Have you thought of what your name should be when you discover immortality?
- As: i have not, no. it is something i have been avoiding. I still have much ahead of me so it is not something I had considered just yet. And there are many things occurring that have prevented me from doing so
- “Then… you should consider, but you are on the right path. You have grown far more in a quarter year than you had in any of the years here.
- As: experience has wizened me i believe. And there are many things that i am learning which i believe are further building me into something greater
- 26: how should we refer to u
- “Velin Desat
- “What are the 26 laws of power?”
- 26: one can think of them as 13 pairs of somewhat contradicting laws, in mastering one of a pair the other must be mastered as well. In the completion of the 26, the belief is that one can master the universe or exert greater control over reality. Would u care to hear them all?
- “There’s no reason for a half lesson.”
-
The 26 Laws of Power (Cultivation Belief)
- One’s path (Dao) is one’s strongest blade (dao). Other weapons cannot compare
- The Dao does not take action. Removing desire settles all disputes
- The Dao is hidden and nameless
- All things soften to achieve harmony. Submitting to yin is the way of the world
- Having just enough of one’s needs curbs desire. Excess accumulation leads to one’s downfall
- The experiences of the world drive us from the Dao.
- To be imperfect is to be complete
- To hold all of the Dao, one’s palm must stretch to the ends of the universe
- None can claim ownership of others for all are equal under the heavens
- The only thing to fear is straying from the path. What lies beyond is naught but distractions
- Act as a reflection for the minds of others. Manipulation will steal away the world.
- Greatness lies in placing oneself below.
- All things come from the Dao
- The Dao is the weakest of substances. It crumbles before the gentlest of touch
- The Dao changes all it touches. None are bereft of desire
- The Dao is grand like a flooding river
- All things embrace yang. Softness is weakness without tempering.
- The Dao provides for all who listen. There is no want while walking the path of Dao.
- The Dao is to be experienced by embracing the world
- The Dao is a perfect cycle. The only whole in existence
- All that exists can be contained within a mustard seed
- Practice impartiality and attain kingship. Kingship equates to heaven. Heaven forms Dao. The Dao is eternal.
- The path is broad and winds unpredictably. The true path may be obscured while falsehoods and temptation shine bright
- The sage brings order to chaos. Life is manipulation of existence
- The sage will become great and all will know them.
- All returns to the Dao.
- 26: we are quite uninformed compared to our master
- “What do you mean by its imperfect to be complete?”
- 26: in seeking to achieving perfection, you can only emulate the dao, which is perfect.
- “But then, if all is imperfect, does that mean all is complete?”
- 26: while imperfection is the most complete state of things, only 1 is truly complete. We must all embrace the imperfection, not to say that the mere act of existing is completeness
- “Should the law not then be to accept your imperfection is to be complete?”
- 26: mmmm we appreciate your insight fellow daoist
- “Should the law not be amended?”
- 26: with the myriad changes the dao has not caught up, we will do what we can in our search
- As: hatsune miku what are you doing?
- M: trying to give the turtle a hug!
- As: maybe it isn’t a turtle that likes hugs
- M: they don’t like hugs?
- As: many animals don’t, no
- M: we didn’t have animals at the lab
- As: please enjoy the time with the animals around the sect, but be careful with the animals. They are not domesticated
- M: domesticated?
- As: pets
- M: turtles aren’t pets?
- As: they can be. These are not
- M: what’s the difference?
- As: these are wild. Pets live in a home, these are protected here
- M: ok i’ll watch from afar ^-^
- As: that is hatsune miku the starlight idol. She is not inclined towards cultivation
- “And yet you’ve made a friend
- As: she is very kind and doesn’t expect too much of me. She is kind and likes to make friends
- “You are good to have her. You never had many friends at the temply
- As: no. i feel they are expecting more of me than who i am. It is a bit awkward when others expect me to be her and i am not her.
- M: miku thinks you’re fine just the way you are!
- As: thank u hatsune miku the starlight idol. That is very kind.
- “Do not hold it against them. They… she was well loved and it’s hard for the people to not feel her absence when you are around
- As: i do not hold it against them. I do not have any sort of grudge held against them, though it is good to be away. So i will eventually go back to my ship and those taht i have come to know. Though recent circumstances have left me shaken
- “What circumstances are those?
- As: there is…
- “There are many tribulations that you will have to encounter, but it is important to make sure they are not too much for you
- 60 hours of cultivation
- Ship
- The moment that the blue angel v1 takes off, rip goes to zmena “we need to talk”
- Z: uh. Alright
- R: LONG overdue. But shit keeps fucking happening! I was gonna try to talk and then we had luka. Then the concert. Then the other night and we had The Spider show up
- Z: a lot has been going on
- R: um. I cant figure out a better way to say this. But. i… aylas right. Xep’s right. The situation we have is not the healthiest. And…. i…. I want a do over.
- Z: huh?
- R: i want us to try again. I want us to… ive only known you as zmena for a month? And i knew you as nivaya camacho for like. 6 years???
- Z: yeah….
- R: and… i… i still dont have a full grasp on what is going on between the 2 of us.
- Z: i thought-
- R: you introduced me as your partner, which, fuck that sounds official
- Z: are we not official??
- R: i dont know???
- Z: we had a tearful i love you confession, i thought we were?? I dont just say that to people
- R: im not assuming you do. I just… ive never done this before. It… i didnt think i would ever do this. I was content to do this… not alone but without a companion. And then i met nivaya. We were roommates. I thought he was chill, we didnt tlak much, and then he left one day, came back, and was different. And… i… i thought it was because he had had a really messy breakup. Knowing now that’s not the case. Its kinda thrown a wrench into how ive perceived our relationship
- Z: theres a lot abt what has happened between us taht i wish i handled different throughout the years. Ive… said this, but i… was scared.
- R: i never thought we were gonna be a thing. In my wildest dreams i didnt think itd happen. For the longest time, i believed it was best that i were a stepping stone to you healing from that breakup and moving on?
- Z: stepping stone???
- R: yeah. I just never thought id get to have relationship like this
- Z: i… i didnt think id get to have smth like this after nivaya. I…
- Ripley shaking, zmena grabs his paws
- Z: i….
- R: so i dont- i dont want to be in a relationship with someone i thought was nivaya camacho. I want us to try again. No lies or… deception or…. I want to try again.
- Z: thank you
- R: cause it… i might honest to god i might throw myself out the airlock if everyone keeps looking at us like we’re a cancer to each other. Um… i dont want that.
- Z: thank you for giving me another chance after everything. Ik i dont deserve it
- R: you do
- Z: you dont have to make excuses, i shouldve told you sooner
- R: yeah but you are capable of change and worthy of a 2nd chance.
- Z: thank you. So… what does starting over look like? We did sortve… not to sound unceremonious but we fell into this.
- R: um…
- Ripley steps back, puts a hand out
- R: my names archibald ripley, its nice to meet you
- Z: my name’s zmenamir, nice to meet you
- R: i am going to do my best, like ive said ive never done this before, idk how it works. If i… fuck smth up, please tell me.
- Z: dont stress out, ive fucked a lot up. You can have your turn
- R: thanks. If you could tell me what 5 or so years ago that this is where id be, id tell you to fuck off
- Z: ill be honest, i also wasnt sure if we would… after nivaya i felt weird… i didnt feel like i could make things official
- R: i didnt think id have to
- Z: u felt very easy to loose
- R: youve lost a lot of ppl, and i… im not going anyway, u cant get rid of me
- Z: same for me, ill go out of my way to be honest w u
- R: thanks. I dont want to put u in a weird position, but if we gonna be honest, everyone here has perceived us of being together and im not mad but it felt weird when everyone heard u say ur brothers most important. Which im not saying- ur family should be important, i would know that, my family is my rock. It just… it felt weird. And i want to be honest. Since we’re doing the honesty thing
- Z: i didnt realize that bothered you. I didnt mean that to hurt you. At all. I felt defensive at the time. I wasnt considering ur feelings and i shouldve. Ur incredibly important to me. With my brother… he’s also v important to me in a different way.
- R: totally yeah. I just wanted to bring it up. Be honest w each other. Had it in the back of my head, wanted to mention it
- Z: i owe him a lot. I… considering him to that level in my life is the least i can do for him
- R: he was also like ur dad, yeah?
- Z: sortve?
- R: yeah. Um.
- Z: i think hed like you a lot. And youd like him
- R: i think my dad would like you too. I hope i have the privilege of meeting him. Ur brother. Can i ask smth? If you wanted to this would stay between the 2 of us. Whats his name?
- Z: oh i cant tell you.
- R: ok…
- Z: ok i know how this sounds. Hold on. This isnt me keeping this from u, this is me being respectful to him as part of our culture. For astrazoans, our true name is smth we give to the people we care abt. He hasnt met u. Itd be inappropriate of me to tell u
- R: that makes sense, sorry. Name i should refer to him by or? Zmena’s brother? Is that easiest?
- Z: he wouldnt go by this rn obv, but he went by Jillic before. Speaking of. I actually got to learn a little bit, i got a little more info abt whats going on with him yesterday
- R: yeah?
- Z: its not much but its smth
- R: velu?
- Z: yeah… ik….
- R: if i were in ur position with almado and i had the opportunity to learn anything abt a way to cure THS or prevent any of my family members from havign to deal with that- in a heartbeat. I… understand.
- Z: thank you
- R: its not the same but i understand
- Z: thank you. I need answers. And ik that you get that needing answers… um. I learned a little bit about velkrion.
- R: whatd you learn?
- Z: its a self sustaining spacestation, make with the same tech as the serenade? Which velu said is odd if just a lab, they dont have that kind of luxury or tech.
- R: yeah thats weird
- Z: said there’s definitely smth else going on there. He also mentioned that the ppl that built it had an insider on the blueprints and tech from the serenade. Not much but its what i got
- R: that is rlly good to know. All you got from him? Any info on… well if anyone would have it itd be him, but u mentioned the serenade, i got concerned. No one can access it rn
- Z: and everyone is looking for it. So the fact that they were able to get blueprints is crazy
- R: yeah nuts. My concern when u mention its like the serenade… this may be a shot in the dark. My concern is that velkrion is in the same situation as the serenade? Which im hoping its not
- Z: i dont think so?? The way velu phrased it made it seem like tis still doing whatever its doing. Granted we dont know where the serenade is, but assuming its crashed, fully crashed, it seems like velkrion is still active and somewhere.
- R: ok. That is… good info to have
- Z: ill update the rest of the party when things cool down. I havent seen asper this upset
- R: dont tell asper i said this, but i appreciate you getting info.
- Z: i wont.
- R: they might… cut me from the network too if i said this to their face
- Z: i think they’d be upset
- R: i dont think ive seen asper… emote this much.
- Z: no. this wasnt the circumstances i wanted to see it in
- R: no certainly not. They are quite lovely it just feels awkward to not be able to do anything abt it
- Z: i think its just going to take time. Ripley? Ik this is a bit awkward, for our first meeting and all, but i do have some money left from what happened with velu, i only spent half of it
- R: how much did you get???
- Z: 8k
- R: oh my god
- Z: you see why i didnt turn it down. Anyway! I want you to have the other half. Take it. Its not a bribe, just- take it.
- R: yes, ok. Um. i can never let asper know i have this fucking money.
- Z: you can just say i put it into your pocket. Im making you take it, you dont have a choice.
- R: if you must, ill take it
- Z: i was planning to ask velu smth to get the answers ur looking for, but i realized its better to just let you ask. Take it. Do what you want with it. Nice meeting you
- R: yeah you too. Want snacks? I have mozzarella sticks in the freezer
- Rip leaves the room, runs into ayla
- R: oh. Hey. whats up?
- She walks away
- R: you want snacks??
- “I dont want any from you. Ive seen highschoolers with more courage.”
- Z: i think she may have heard our convo
- R: dammit.
- Party reunites after abt 60 hours
- Credicites in the network, can answer a question WE PONDER THIS
- Zeldau system, takes 53 hours of downtime to get to
- Stop by acoria
- Dakine lands after us
- Dakine “we should go to a meeting place.” to go see Anti-Lemdako
- Yeah we agree
- She leads with her motorcycle
- We use our stolen car, oops accidentally used the one stolen in the system. We steal another car
- We abandon it and buy a refurbished car
- Text dakine, she picks us up again
- Takes us into the neon lit city, and to a small diner that seems to be blasted to bits
- The signs still on, and the holograms still going but abandoned
- “This was how i was supposed to meet up with them.”
- As: was this supposed to be destroyed?
- “No…”
- X: look around, see what couldve happened
- As: i think it was blown up
- X: ok. Well.
- “I need to break into the police station. Do you think they wouldve left evidence here?”
- As: no
- X: no.
- R: maybe they were stupid like us
- As: would you like assistance?
- “I think that it could be useful. Do you want to cause a distraction? You seem to be able to attract the police.”
- 26: we, the 26 laws of power, are discrete
- X: we have it handled if it would be helpful
- Add dakine and reluctantly add zmena to the network
- We’re doing a flashmob in the middle of the street
- Police try to break it up, dakine is able to sneak on it
- Able to feel her go into the back, begin to head out before her health drops to half
- “Dont come here. Follow me.”
- We follow her through the streets and to the bay, to where we’re able to see a xep holding a gun to the back of her head, asking numerous questions
- We send miku
- M: excuse me sir, i think there’s a misunderstanding!
- “Oh. miku.” holds the gun up and fires at dakine
- M: cna you not do that????
- M: what are you doing with my friend!
- He misses “executing them.”
- M: why??? What did she do???
- “A spy, miku.”
- M: what do you mean, spy? Why dont we sit down and talk abt this instead of firing randomly at her?
- “Oh its not random. Dont worry, its not random.”
- “This unit can talk to you after its done with its job.” (jay is afraid)
- Xep takes them out with 1 shot
- Dakine “well done.” she starts carving into their head
- Xep helps
- As: what are you doing?
- “Seeing what happened. This woman was on a smoke break outside, and i watched her turn into a xep by my very eyes. There were 2 others, but this one escorted me.”
- It has the same shape as the credicite we left there, she takes a picture
- “Are you familiar?”
- X: its the credicite we left
- “You exfiltrated it, right?”
- Ermmmm
- Well. its enchantment basically. They took the credicite, who was breaking chains, and inverted it into the chain-maker
- M: do u think this can happen to any android?
- “I doubt any. Im going to stay back here for a while, see what i can find. I cant imagine its a remote possession.” points at various parts where smth had to enter to enable. “But i imagine it can be done quickly, within a day. My bet is within the hour, or 6 hours. Could be 6 hours while someone is sleeping.”
- As: did you see where the other one went when escorted away?
- “Just down some streets.”
- She requests to see Halrex Korr one more time, who performs facial surgery on ragash again to be a different person
- Xep makes sure to say goodbye before the surgery, makes sure to Not look at them after to make sure theyre not in danger
- 39 hours to the next location
- Xep hacking the phone again
- Shows various correspondence
- Really incriminating stuff theyre not so stupid to have laid down, but notes abt the ship and the like are there, esp those that deal with hynarion circle. Seems the type of ship they were uploaded onto and flown off to space to. Hynarion ship was escorted with a local ship that was disguised as a peacekeeping one that floats just off the planet. Impossible (bc of space) to spot the ship from space, but u can spot it from arkari bc it looks like a shooting star.
- Catch ayla in the kitchen as she’s eating
- “...waht’s up?”
- As: we wanted to talk to you more abt the Otad Gang
- “Alright. So long as ripley’s not here.
- Ripley leaves and talks to vespucciano abt cultivation
- “26 told me they get to be sect leader for some reason. Doesnt seem right. My understanding is that we’re at the same level of ascension!”
- “I’m just sayin! Just tryin to spitball, do you think the dao’s bullshit or is there smth there?”
- R: possible?
- “Its possible anythin’s happening!”
- R: i dont follow daoism, so???
- Miku explains it, not that 26’s teachings dont hit flawlessly. But.
- Ayla locks the door
- “Ok, what do you want to know? If you spend 30 hours asking me questions im liable to kill you.”
- As: we are hoping to get more details about the otad gang tragedy
- “The one where i had to hunt down zmena?
- As: idk if that’s the triggering… is that what happened? Is that how you got the money?
- “It was an assassination but it semeed to be under wraps before the money was dispersed. There was no talk of it
- As: no talk at all?
- “Not to me. Don’t get me wrong, he’s family but he’s a slimy bastard
- As: is it possible he was trying to protect u from it?
- “K'zamko? Or my dad?
- As: both
- “K'zamko no way. Dad, maybe. He always hjad the wind and waves speaking to him. He’s the one that encouraged me to take the job.
- As: for zmena?
- “He said it would be good to hone my skills and gave me his cloak
- As: well it’s certainly brought u far from home
- “Too far
- As: we’ll be going that way. Would u like us to stop by nsuoba again? I don’t want to bring any insult but I can see the memories of the dead as holograms.
- “His body was thrown into the ocean no?
- AS: yes
- “Idk how you’re gonna get to it then. The ocean of nsuoba destroys almost anything that gets into it
- As: almost anything?
- “Specialty ships and the like. There’s a coral that grows there but most flesh and stuff is destroyed
- As: we can check it out if you want to see what can happen
- “Before we land on Kiliv-VI
- As: sure, that’s fine
- “Is that all about my family? I’d rather not talk about it, i’m still too furious at those two (rip and zmena) for being how they are
- X: i don’t get them
- As: what?
- X: they had a feelings thing
- “They seem addicted to rebirth rather than continuance
- As: i’ll see what i can say to them
- X: we owe u a dropoff at whatever planet u want, just let us know
- Xep hacking the phone again
- Question to Credicite: Will we find more information on Persanare on Kiliv?
- Blinks once for yes
- Fly thru the systems doing various activities, land in Istitiver System on Utsaka
- Get back to miku planet
- We’re requested to go to MUSE Plaza
- Mikus dads (Hiroyuki Itoh and Sasaki Wataru)? Are there and also Maikeru Sukkoto
- “How’s my high earner!”
- M: we’ve had a few complications but i think i’m doing ok now!
- Miku hugs, he hugs back but miku is a little stronger at this point
- He looks at the others, claps his hands “so you’re fired. Muse is not allowed to have interns anymore. Now if you need someone to sign your resume, i’m more than happy to.”
- Ripley takes that
- 26: what has sparked this change?
- “We’re undergoing restructuring. We cant get into it now. But…. just some internal restructuring. And since we arent hiring new bodyguards at the same time…” theyre slowly letting the vocaloid research die out. “But we’re welcomign the newest model.. Luka v2!”
- Luka “pleasure to meet you. I learned that i recent lost my memory!”
- Miku hugs her and cries: i thought i never see you again!
- “We’re gonna be permanent companions like rin and len!”
- “Sorry if i dont act like i did before! The memory loss hit me very hard.”
- M: u dont remember anything?
- “Sadly no!”
- M: i’ll show u all the ropes!
- The 2 dads awkwardly smile in the background. Trying not to pay attention to turrets in the background
- Miku goes to get a tune up with xep
- Almado goes and talks with itto(?)
- Miku gets anesthetic
- “If you dont mind, this is a trade secret”
- X: if its absolutely necessary, of course. But i had questions abt miku. We’re still travelling together even tho im not an employee, we’re friends. I have questions abt how her brain works
- “I’ll see what i can as miku’s friend, but as little as i can as an aetherion employee.”
- X: im curious abt to what extent the emotion limiters being removed can cause her distress of harm beyond that of a standard human
- “Dont worry. Her emotion limiters will have no affect on her health.”
- X: super great to know. And um. Of course she has the standard aetherion filter?
- “We didnt want to introduce her to too many stressful concepts”
- X: i see u really elegantly designs that to prevent stressors, but she should be fine without emotion limiters, so im curious abt the balance between the 2
- “The balance is entirely 1 sided, its to ensure she sings as happil;y as possible. Happiness is the goal with miku.”
- X: what’s the goal with the other ones?
- “The other ones? Almost all of them are happiness. That is the goal. It’s to spread happiness to the galaxy. And if i do say so, at a reasonable price.”
- X: how much does it cost to remake an entire android?
- “A lot, but once theyre made, theyre made. And they’re out in the world.”
- X: mm, yeah your ability to perform repairs is incredibly impressive. Im really glad miku can always be… returned to health and happiness!
- “The galaxy is cruel but we do what we can. We pay the bodyguards quite well.”
- (he wishes he could do more for them, but he’s trapped under Aetherion Corporation. But if its between them not existing and them existing as this, he’ll pick them existing as such. He does believe in the project, or at least its stated goals, but he cant own the factory as a worker.)
- He agrees to go out for a little daddy date, trying to convince him to join the network to talk easier
- He’s stuck here, his daughters are going around singing, he doesnt get to hear the real stories.
- Miku’s dad joins the network
- “Sorry, not used to thinking to speak”
- As: you get used to it
- “Is luka in here?
- As: i haven’t had a chance to talk to her yet
- “So what have you done so far miku? What kind of concerts have you done?
- Miku explains the concerts she’s done (mostly other ppls concerts)
- “Miku ur the first, why havent you done ur own concerts? Aetherion would pay the cost for the venue for the concerts.”
- M: almado said we had to pay for them ourselves!
- “You need to secure them yourself? But after that, well- what funds we have left.”
- M: wdym?
- “The Disposal Corp has halted funding for muse.”
- M: why?
- “I’m not allowed to know.”
- M: any ideas?
- “I think our secondary research proved fruitful? The eternal android. But i was hoping to secure the singing androids. Are you familiar with the cultivation in a can? We used the golden core package for the vocaloids. We tested it with mindless, soulless androids first. We found that something about ascending to a golden core affected the mood modulators so we had to modify them.
- As: how did you modify their mood modulators?
- “I can’t tell you.
- As: can’t or won’t?
- “Aetherion tech. It’s locked and only able to be remembered in the laboratory
- X: could we converse like this in the lab or is that monitored as well?
- “It’s monitored too. The only reason i can notice this now is cause i had the thought in the lab. They can only lock away things u learn while inside i believe” (points towards his head with v obvious cyberware
- As: how does the golden core affect the mood modulators?
- “Well besides some combat modules which don’t get to golden core, usually violent explosion of the body. Starting from the mood modulators, cracks would spread through the body until they explode
- 26 thinks abt it, has to roll at disadvantage, looks at miku and sees Elder Quintilarus
- As: have you personally seen this occur?
- “Ofc
- As: and the android is no longer operational afterwards?
- “Oh no. total violent death.”
- Asks everyone but miku “is miku happy?”
- As: yes but has been troubled as of late due to the actions of almado
- “What has he done?”
- We explain it
- X: part of the reason we came to ask questions. He doesnt tell us anything
- “Should we include miku in the conversation, or does it upset her?”
- 26: almado keeps these things from her
- Z: i believe she can have the right to know
- “I trust her friends. Go ahead.”
- As: a big issue is that if things are not up to aetherion standards she has been known to forget about them
- “That’s right
- As: is there a way for us to disable such a function?
- “No it goes to a short term memory bank.”
- “I dont know why they never hire a good bodyguard.”
- As: balance out the innocence of the vocaloids themselves?
- “Maybe.”
- Z: more profitable?
- “Its nothing i can handle.”
- X: any competitor that might have the tech?
- “I know the original miku was taken by the Solara Imperium, so surely they have it. That’s how they made Kasane Teto. And as a show, they make her commit ritualistic suicide. A new soul takes place.”
- He looks down at his watch, hes been gone for 30 mins, he has to clock back in
- He pays our tab “its been nice talking!”
- Ripley gets access to almado’s contract for 24 hours
- The Aetherion CEO can also wipe his debt
- Ceo meets with the board and no one else
- What happens if Muse goes under while he works?
- He gets reassigned
