Arthur looked at his reflection in the mirror in his quarters, What he saw was a proud Klingon warrior, but also, in a way, he saw the legacy of his biological parents he was carrying on by being in Starfleet. “Remember, fight with honor like a warrior, and you’ll always make us proud.” Arthur remembered the words his father told him before he left Qo’NoS to join Starfleet, after passing his second Rite of Ascension.

Tugging on the hem of his uniform to attempt to straighten it out, he exited his quarters. He moved quickly to the lift, and patiently waited as it took him down to deck 14. In hindsight he could’ve probably asked the computer to be sure, but he was hoping his DH was in his office rather than elsewhere on the ship.
