"No, they don't. Not that we would like them to find out Sekigane exists anytime soon. Should we find their loyal hounds sniffing around - they shall be asked to leave, and destroyed if they refuse. For now, until we come up with a better solution or until The Shogunate finally decides to ackowledge and recognize us - we are going to stick to that line of behavior."
A small lifter led Haruki and the visitor away from the hangar deck. It's construction implied it was suitable not only for moving humans, but also different cargo that was delivered and later on transported to the storage modules on the lower decks. As by now, those were only basic supplies to keep the base up and running until it earns some formidable defensive and utility capabilites. The maid led Hitomi to the living quarters, gesturing towards the coridors splitting both ahead and behind of them, with two rows of doors placed through the walls at similiar intervals.
"You are free to choose any room you like. Not that there was too much difference between the two of them, but most of them are not yet occupied. The baths are at the ends of the coridors respectively. Do not be afraid, we don't have much of male personel on Sekigane, and those we have are educated enough not to peek on us. Feel yourself at home, Hitomi-san, and feel free to ask if you feel like you need something. I will be around. Oh, you should certainly visit the baths as soon as possible. They are not only comfortable, but also indeed relaxing. I might even accompany you - if you let me know when you shall be going there."
Peace, being the distant dream it is, comes inevitably, and goes hand in hand with justice.
