A Sober Problem-Solving Approach

Ves found it entertaining to speculate about the future of his clan.

After all, there weren't many sources of entertainment around here. The System Space had never been designed with leisure in mind. It was a solemn place that was primarily dedicated to facilitating his progression as a mech designer.

If he wasn't making any meaningful progress towards becoming a Star Designer or completing his spiritual ascension, then there wasn't any reason for him to squat in this place longer than was necessary.

Ves still had a few hours left before he had to pay his rent in order to stay any longer, so he still wasn't in a hurry to do anything productive.

He continued to use his remaining free time on contemplating the life he had led and the decisions he had made up to this point.
