A chime sounded on Mark's tablet, reminding him of the all-hands meeting at Citadel Center. He'd been in early, working on a stepped-up flight patrol schedule for the next week. New humans were arriving very soon, and when the last group arrived, major hostilities had ensued. He didn't want the Overlord to be caught off guard.
He shut down his tablet and left his office, making his way toward the Citadel's central open area. As he walked, he wondered what this new group would bring. All the humans who had ended up joining the Overlord had turned out to be decent fellows, but many others had not. He still suspected the latter group had been behind the recent sickness that had spread through Lair.
He nodded and waved off the salutes as he neared his destination. With the developing throng, he'd have worn his arm out if he'd returned every salute. He was hoping to see his wife in the crowd, but she just as likely was taking care of last minute meal prep before rushing down for the meeting.
Arriving at the large open area at the center of the Citadel, Mark made his way to the Officer's Platform and found his place, nodding a greeting to General Steele who was already present.
