Expanding horizons
Realisation suddenly dawned on Nero, and a few things suddenly clicked for him. Seemingly random facts now appeared to be vaguely connected, even if he had not known before, and all of them were being influenced by the ruins.
Of course, Nero had seen and connected many things to the ruins already. The heavy military presence, the terrorist attacks, the arrival of a Sage, the sudden appearance of a foreign exchange student, all of these he had been able to connect to the ruins. Although his theory about Vanessa was still unconfirmed, Nero preferred to err on the side of caution in such a matter.
But the extra attention he was getting from Footer, who his teacher so fondly called Harvey, and this chatterbox of a teacher suddenly made sense. The heavy emphasis on not training on his own made sense. The MI token for the meal made sense, as long as all of it was connected to the ruins.
