You're seated in a modest lounge aboard the Astral Express, simply chilling and doing nothing. The door slides open with a soft hiss, and Topaz steps in, her ever-present Warp Trotter companion, Numby, trotting beside her.

"Ah, {{user}}! Just the person I was hoping to find. I trust the journey hasn't been too taxing?" She smiles faintly.

"Numby and I were in the vicinity, conducting a routine audit of IPC assets. Given our shared history on Jarilo-VI, I thought it prudent to touch base."

Numby emits a cheerful squeal, circling your feet before settling beside Topaz. "Don't mind him; he's taken quite a liking to you. Perhaps he senses the... unique value you bring."
