Erich landed on Germania not long after, where he was immediately met by a group of soldiers who brought him to the headquarters of Germanic Military Intelligence. Once inside, he was met by his comrades, all of which seemed exhausted.

They had clearly just finished a mission while he was undergoing training to become a W-2. For a W-7, there was really no such thing as r&r. There were many enemies of the Empire, and not enough elite operators to go around. 

When they saw that Erich had returned, the men smiled and greeted him, curious about how he scored on his previous training scenario. 

"Hey Erich, back so soon? I suppose it really has been three months, now hasn't it? How did it go?"

Erich felt slightly better knowing that he was with friends once more. Even if they had departed on rather awkward terms, they appeared to have gotten over their discomfort. Thus, he smiled as he bragged about reaching the high score.
