In the next moment, his hand silently tore out of the sand, and he stepped out once more, giving one last look at the base behind him before leaving.
The journey back was easier, with every sand peak easily navigated, and quietly, he was out of the periphery of the TCF Base.

Over the eight hours the plane traveled, Everlearn remained fast asleep, the AI voice managing to wake him when he landed at Cornandor's port.
Taking a simple taxi, he got off the street, walking for a few more meters before he arrived at the building.
Easily navigating through the elevators, he arrived before the door and knocked twice.
The silence endured for a few moments before the sound of footsteps echoed out.
