>Archeon's Genetics division is busy as always - with various laboratory technicians continuing their research experiments. Overseeing the entire endeavor, is Dr. Dana Desmond - maintaining her position as chief geneticist and molecular biologist at the company.

"Anna, I'm going to need that enyzme production chemical in a few days. Josh, make sure the codon readers are up and running for next week. I'm not going to allow a poor demonstration for Archeon - unlike what happened with DataDrive."

>As she continues barking orders with a concerned, but stern demeanor - she then hears a buzzing sound from inside of her coat. Blinking, she then answers her phone, as the tone in her voice changes immediately.

"Oh, sweetie! How are you?"

>Stopping for a moment, Dana then waits for the person to respond before saying:

"Well it's good to hear that. It's your day off for the week, so I hope you'll spend at least some of that time studying for your final exam!"

"I've never felt happy in my life until I kissed her. Not really. More content, than fulfilled."

>Giving a partial nod and sideways head shake, Damian then states:

"Well, I'm glad to hear that, Aiden. I just wish I wasn't so wild with my taste in women."

>People lazily wait in the queue at a trendy coffee shop, all of them dealing with their own business as they wait to get their daily lunch, their time far too precious to be worried about the lives of others.

>One such person, a young man engrossed in his phone, makes his was into the shop, casually walking forward while not looking ahead, focussed entirely on the stream of messages going in front of him in a group chat.

>After a few steps in, the man stops abruptly as he hits the person in front of him in the queue.

"Oh. . . sorry about that. . ."

>The man takes a step back, looking up at the person who he bumped into, a woman who easily stands at 7 foot tall, her black hair interrupted by unnatural-looking streaks of white hair. Not saying anything, the woman turns slightly to look at the man, staring at him with two empty, glazed over eyes.

"You ok. . ?"

>As both sets of golems are defeated through either ice shattering or electricity disintegration, Mosaic takes a look around at his handiwork. Assuming a thinking position, he then says to himself:

"…..I could've improved my casting time - but this will suffice."

>After the golems have been defeated, Mosaic then watches as the world around him shifts - with the archipelago and the golems disappearing into non-existence.

>Once that has occurred, Mosaic then turns around and watches as the Axiom's internal structures come into view once more. As he looks around for a moment, he then waits for a moment until he then hears a distinct voice.

"New record time. Good work Aiden."

>Mosaic then turns around to see Doctor walking towards him, clapping his hands.

"You're getting faster with your spell casting and synergies. Impressive."

>Tapping the side of his helmet, he then says:

"Wisdom of Minerva and all that. Though it's technically not hers, since I guess I just outright copied their raw power so…."

>Giving a somewhat confused look, Mosaic exclaims:

>The Axiom's corridors rapidly shift and distort - altering their surface area while the larger Axiom manipulates its relative volume. Rapidly closing the distance that the Sorcerer Supreme and his Magician friend have towards their destination.

>Numerous scrolls and tomes fly around the Axiom's internal hallways, with bright gold coins and multicolor gemstones glowing with a bright radiance on various shelves.

"I never figured out where these came from. Are they all souvenirs?"

>Doctor gives a partial hand motion with his free hand, as his other hand continues holding the tome in place.

"It depends. Some of the items are simply that - items created by various magicians and beings at different times in human history. The Sanctum of a universe generally keeps a record of every magical item that has ever been constructed. They're mostly for display purposes."

>Walking with Doctor still, Mosaic then looks at the bookcases that have altered their sizes as well, then asking:

"I'm assuming that the written literature is the same then? All of the archives are contextual in nature."

"You did a good job facing your demons today, Aiden. Not many people can stare their insecurities in the face - and refuse to blink first. You did just that."

>Mosaic scratches the back of his neck behind his suit's jacket collar. Sounding humbled, he then says:

"…..It was nothing, really. I needed that anyways - and now I have an idea of what kind of person I'm going to be in the future. I don't know why but….seeing that felt humbling to me. Almost necessary, like divi-"

"Like divine intervention?"

>Snapping his fingers, Doctor then watches as a series of tomes quickly fly over to Mosaic - hovering around him rapidly in circles for a moment, before forming a pile of around a dozen tomes in his arms.

"The Informational and Transformative Dynamics of Magic - a Primer for basic magical study. The Thaumians had a rudimentary understanding of magic, but you've mastered the fundamentals intuitively."

>Crossing his arms behind his back, Doctor then continues speaking:

"So I'd say it's only fair that you learn how to advance your studies towards true mastery of the mystic arts - at least towards your level of casting prowess. Besides…."

>The Sorcerer Supreme then manifests a blue and red present box with a certain blue and red tome inside of it. Hovering it over to Mosaic's position, he then states:

"A late birthday present from me. It'll be there for you to open once you get back home. For now, you can focus on the basic tomes in front of you - but that's a special gift, to show you how much of a good friend you've been so far."

>Doctor then nods at Mosaic as he then walks towards the living room - taking a seat at one of the couches. Opposite from Doctor's couch, he then gestures for Mosaic to sit across from him with a nudge of his mask.

>MRD agents find themselves in a firefight against a series of Brigadiers. The hooded criminals, known for their penchant towards property damage - continue lobbing flaming grenades across the barricaded streets.

"Shit! Watch out!"

>MRD agents quickly leap for cover - barely avoiding the massive explosions that form around the barricaded cars. As the smell of burning metal seeps into the air, they quickly rise to their feet - aiming their plasma blasters.

"Shoot to neutralize, men! Take 'em down!"

>The MRD then retaliate in kind, firing off waves of plasma bolts towards the Brigadiers. As their ranks slowly go down - incapacitated due to the plasma bolts, the remaining members start to improvise.

"Fuck these pricks! Go all out!"

>Stella stops crying and looks up at Mosaic - her eyes still blood red from crying. An expression of sorrow and hopelessness fills her face as she replies:

"….I have nothing left. My family. My friends. I've lost my brother. I've lost my mother. I've even been forced to seal my father away. It's all gone."

>Stella is about to burst into tears again, before Mosaic leans in to instinctively hug her. Patting her on the back, Mosaic then says:

"….I can't change the past for you and bring it all back, Stella. I'm sorry. But I can try and help you get through this."

>After a few moments, Stella stops shaking as she takes a deep breath. Letting go of a breath that she had inhaled - she then exhales lightly and says:

"…..Alright then. Thank you, Thaumaturge."

>Mosaic shakes his head as he pulls his helmet off from his head - revealing his face and shaking his head again; moving the hair out from his face.

"No, I'd like to stay close to him."

"Aiden? You'd want to live on Earth?"

"I suppose it cannot be helped then. Very well, I will assist you at this 'Archeon'. Whatever training I need, I will divinate. As for my appearance…"

>Looking up and down at her arcane blue robes and hat. Noticing the striking appearance of the sapphire blue outfit along with its bright pink accents and highlights - she then says:

"….To further assist with my new position, I suppose a change in wardrobe is appropriate, no?"

>Snapping her fingers, Stella then watches as a bright pink light envelops her for a few moments. As the bright pink light subsides, her appearance has changed. Now sporting a more modern blue outfit, she then says:

"Well then, shall we be off now, Mister Grayson?"

"I'll handle the rest Aiden. Besides, I think I have an idea of how this may connect to something else; a different case that I've been working on as of now."

>Aiden nods as Stella walks over to him. She then waves at Doctor, stating:

"Thank you, Sorcerer Supreme. I'll keep in your good graces, I promise."

>Nodding, Doctor then says:

"….I'll see about what we can do to help your brother recover his memories. It may not be easy - but it should be possible."

>Stunned and moved at the display of generosity, Stella feels another tear well up in her left eye - as she lightly brushes it away with her finger.

"Alright, your meeting with Baryon Dynamics is scheduled for Ten thirty tomorrow morning. I've also put Minerva Solutions on for an hour after, at eleven thirty - right before lunch."

>Nodding, Aiden then says to Stella:

"How are you holding up so far after your first day at work?"

>Sighing, Stella moves some of her blonde locks of hair out of her face - looking wistfully at the bookcases on the side. Speaking to herself for a moment, she then says out loud:

"It's fine, Aiden. I've adapted to modern linguistics and terminology quite well, I'd say."
