Braveblitz, Aurora, Nova, and even the Xenoid Queen glanced around their surroundings. At the very least, the first three seemed to be amazed, admiring the beauty of nature and the endless horizon of a planet's surface, something they hadn't experienced that much before, as they were only inside a virtual reality.
But this beauty, this splendor, this fresh air, this world outside, it was all so wonderful, even though I felt right back at home, and even happier than before. The annoyance and stress I had brought with me was slowly dissipating, being completely overcome by a happy sense of nostalgia and relief.
I know there are many challenges ahead, we still have to reconquer half of the Elven Continent and defeat Fafnir and his gigantic army of draconic lizards, but even then, I felt so happy… Somehow, the horrors of space now feel like something I only would like to visit briefly, as coming back home just feels much better to me in general.
