"That would be me." A voice addressed him from behind, entering the room.

Rui didn't even need to turn to recognize the presence of the Martial Squire.

"I am Squire Luna." The old woman told him. "I will be overlooking the actual explorative procedure."

"Pleasure to meet you." Rui greeted. "When can we begin the procedure?"

"Immediately." She replied, gesturing at a medical bed. "Lie down there."
