Of course, the group could not all cram into the Domo's control room and chatter away. With Ajak and Thena catching up with their long-lost friends, Gilgamesh took Henry to another room.
Like the control room, this place was a complete mess. All kinds of things were piled into a mountain that nearly reached the ceiling.
