His training was going well in the VR simulator room and around-the-clock monitoring was in place for the Yellow and Green Zones that represented the facility currently housing Lustia Lunesta Haniel and the surrounding two miles of mostly industrial factories and warehouses, leaving Zeph to only find frustration with two things.
The first was the "necessary" respray of the LDNE01 Archangel that he practically counted as his first child because of how much he loved flying it. Seeing it painted orange and white so that it looked more like a civilian corporation-owned light cargo transport aircraft, made Zeph want to cry every time he got into the cockpit.
The second thing was what plagued his mind during the lonely hours of flying in circles over the city as the very untalkative man in the co-pilot's seat absorbed himself in watching the camera and sensor data streams in real-time looking for even the slightest hint of suspicious activity.
