"Brutus!"
Gloriana entered a highly secure and luxuriously-furnished recovery room on the Indigo Tremor.
The Glory Seeker fleet carrier had become a lot emptier after the destruction of lots of mechs. Fortunately, the enemy hadn't prioritized her as a target so she incurred remarkably little damage.
For now, her crew were busy trying to recover the wrecks floating in space while also organizing a prize crew to facilitate the takeover of the Auralis.
Gloriana didn't care about that at the moment. She ran up to the bed where a tired-looking Brutus looked at his sister with happiness.
"You're safe."
There was little doubt about that as soon as word of their eventual victory reached his ears. However, seeing was believing. Only when he saw that her sister was safe did he feel reassured.
His protective force of will embraced the woman in a familiar fashion. On her part, Gloriana relaxed even further.
