After a simple settling-in period, the twenty-one wardens led by King of Kings Loken became temporary residents of Tanagrus Planet, while the Asuman temporarily served as an auxiliary station for the Crystal Core Research Station, moored in the gravitational field around the space station.
As "sentinels" created by the Creation Goddess specifically to guard prisons, the wardens had few requirements for their living environment and almost no personal demands. After taking a tour around Tanagrus's ecological restoration zone, they quickly fell in love with the place and displayed immense curiosity toward Zom. They had been isolated on Kolo during the previous era, when the Creation Goddess had not yet created beings like the Firstborn or devoted herself to sowing life. Instead, she had poured nearly all her energy into the war against the Lord of Madness. As a result, the wardens born during that period were especially interested in all the goddess's creations that had appeared in the following era.
After all, even if they could learn about events in the outside world through various channels, it was nowhere near as vivid as seeing them with their own eyes.
Zom, meanwhile, warmly welcomed the arrival of his new friends. His lively personality meant that he naturally enjoyed making more friends.
The Asuman had undergone a long sleep and had continued operating under enormous strain for ten thousand years as the regulatory center of the "old world." As a result, many of the ship's internal components were worn out, suffering damage and hidden problems of varying severity. These injuries had also manifested in Asuman himself, the ship's "main brain," so he needed some time to recuperate.
At Hao Ren's instruction, the Crystal Core Research Station began analyzing the Asuman's structure and operating principles and prepared to give it a thorough overhaul.
