[Trap. It had been a trap. That reality has taken more time to process than he'd like to admit.
He'd had hope, been so sure that rescuing his fellow cephalon would be possible, and what had it all been for? His Operator had been willing to assist in the endevour, and in the end it had put him in such mortal danger.
The liset is quiet, nothing more than the occasional whirr and hum from the engines and a slight crackling from the foundry, and it's almost eerie in the aftermath of everything. There's no infestation here though, he's run diagnostics again and again, even after decontamination. It gives him something to do, something to focus on besides Jordas' words and pleas.
Jordas, who would have been such a pleasure to talk to, who would have been able to tell him so much, who would have shattered the silence just the smallest bit.
No. No he can't dwell on that. Diagnostics again, he has to make sure every last bit of the infestation is gone. He has to make sure that his tenno is safe. That's the difficult part. After every mission, there's always a sense of success; a threat has been eliminated, data stolen, lives protected. This though...this there's so little to be excited over. He could have lost his Operator, all for his own willful oversight. It's a sobering thought.]
