he governor’s office had been newly decorated and was filled with artifacts from Andoria. Some were personal, while others had been given to Renn in recognition of his contributions to his homeworld. The room was inviting to the eye, something he had hired a decorator to ensure. It was kept cool at sixteen degrees Celsius. Renn would have preferred it closer to zero, but that would have been horribly uncomfortable for the rest of his staff.

Renn was dressed in a fine gray suit, something suitable for his new station, with the fabric standing in sharp contrast against his pale skin. He stood before the window and, to anyone who did not know him, appeared to be looking out across the city. In reality, he was simply meditating. He was blind and could not look at anything, but his other senses more than compensated for the lack of sight, providing him with something similar to sonar, though with far greater fidelity. He was still not entirely sure how he had gone from a newly assigned engineer, to leading the terraforming project, and finally to governor, but somehow he had. He intended to honor the position the people of OED V had entrusted to him.
