"I'm heading out to the Terran Reach—the human civilization zone. You guys hold down the fort while I'm gone," Ethan said, giving his final instructions. Now that the food situation was more or less under control, he could finally loosen the reins a bit and focus on his own plans.
Bulldozer gave a goofy nod. "Boss, don't worry. If any enemies show up, I'll smash every last one of 'em."
Ethan gave a small nod. "If anything comes up, ask PhD. He'll know what to do."

They'd come all the way from Earth to Originis—left everything behind. Deep down, they were all holding onto the same fire: one day, they'd conquer this entire planet.
...
With his instructions given, Ethan was ready to head out.
