Ves settled into a new routine.
With Vulcan's business taken care of, he no longer felt as much urgency as before.
Even if the Iron Resonant Crucifix Crown was up to mischief again, Ves no longer became directly exposed to its nefarious plots.
With that concern out of the way, Ves put his mind on more relevant matters.
From negotiating with various first-class powers to beginning his studies on first-class mech design, Ves began to live a busy life.
His wife also started to settle down in New Constantinople VIII. She had become extra driven to fit in and become a part of the local community, but she knew that her qualifications were wholly inadequate compared to her husband.
This was why she tried to work extra hard!
The process of developing a custom first-class cranial implant could not be rushed, but Gloriana could still invest much of her time on completing her ongoing mech design projects.
