New Elysium: Docking Station
One again, the man in the suit looks about to voice his annoyance, and once again Filip smoothly steps in, waving Riddle's questions away. "Oh, no no, my dear author, no trouble at all. This is..." Here he hesitates, and finally the man in the suit pounces on his opportunity.
"Kaeon. Kaeon Rhyse. You could call me an interested party in the development of New Elysium." The man's voice is clipped and formal, but he sounds more hurried than rude. "And no, I have been assured" - here Kaeon pauses to give a sidelong glance at Filip - "that pirates are rarely bold enough to threaten this station or its guests." He manages a smile; it looks somewhat pained but not entirely ungenuine. "Less so now that you've so effectively frightened the rabble off, I'm sure. Well done." A slight nod follows the statement, delivered with the gravity of a priceless gift.
Then Tytva speaks and Kaeon can't quite contain a sigh. "With that said, I must be going. I'm a very busy individual. As, I'm sure..." Here he pauses a moment to make eye contact with Alezandaru; something unidentifiable flickers in his gaze - recognition, maybe? "...are you." A respectful tilt of his head towards Filip, and Kaeon departs, the two bodyguards falling in smartly behind him as he makes his way to another airlock.
Filip, meanwhile, seems eager to brush off Kaeon's presence and demeanor, turning his attention instead to Tytva. Rubbing his hands together with a smile, the halfling exclaims, "I'm glad you asked, madame. That offers a lovely segue to our next order of business. You see," here he shifts again to addressing the whole group, "part of the reason you have been invited here is to help Paradise Resorts focus test a particular upgrade to our amenities. Allow me to introduce you to: Keys to Elysium!"
With a dramatic flourish, Filip raises his hand and a small hologram of a stylized key appears floating above it. He smirks. "Doesn't look like much, does she? Well, I assure you, Keys is the absolute latest in virtual intelligence concierges. She can put everything our resort offers, right at your fingertips! Here, allow me to demonstrate." Filip gives a flick of his wrist, and the holographic key splits in four before vanishing.
