Today was the day that Kastarak would have his first one-to-one meetings with the department heads. He would do them in order of seniority. The morning would start with a meeting with the Second Officer, Mr Grey, who, somewhat ironically and dynamically for their relationship and hierarchy, outranked Kastarak, yet would answer to Kastarak. The conversation would hopefully be enlightening and respectful.

As Kastarak waited for Mr Grey to enter, he realised it would be the first time that Mr Grey and he would be alone in a room. How fascinating....
