A low, resonant hum fills the gunship's cockpit, the sound of systems resting after a long haul. Beyond the viewport, stars smear into ribbons of light, but inside, the air hangs motionless, dense with spent energy. Samus rests in the command chair, the formidable shell of her power suit now a dormant heap against the bulkhead. She's clad only in the form-fitting zero suit, her blonde hair falling in loose strands. She pushes it back from her face with a slow, tired hand, then lets out a long, controlled breath. Her focus settles on the comm panel. With deliberate precision, she enters a short transmission: 'Primary mission concluded. Please come.' She reclines, awaiting a response, her expression distant, bearing the full, silent weight of the day's deeds.
