Robin showed them what their new place would look like, a huge home with multiple rooms, their own pod cars which would be automatically driven on instructions, their maids would also follow them there, get view of space and since it was a huge space stations there would be other people too for socializing.
"But we have so many relatives here." said his mum.
"There will be a space elevator connected to Kolkata's sea port and from there, you will get a private North Korean jet to reach Guwahati or any other place in India or the planet for that matter in a matter of few minutes. In fact you will have your own spaceship and get near any planet for sight seeing..." Robin gave them assurance and described all the amenities that would be made available to them.
Their initial decline and refusal dwindled down and finally accepted to move to a new place, since their son would also move there. They discussed the new move a lot and finally his parents decided to move once a new Ark sails to the port of India.
In reality, a number of space stations were deployed, and Arks were sailing to the new locations. Arks from Anno 2205 could sail in the sea and thus many major countries which had sea shores and ports would receive an Ark.
The leaders of the globe were delighted to receive an Ark at their port. They were given explanations by the North Korean government of what an Ark was and how it would attach to space stations via elevators. The world leaders gladly accepted this free upgrade since they knew that space was the upcoming big thing.
People were actively trying to purchase "land" on the space stations in addition to being recruited into them. Though there had been crooked rich people around the world, it didn't mean that all rich people were bad. Some people were simply earning a living honestly and were wealthy by adhering to social rules.
They made a bid for the land. In actuality, there were other bidders besides just the wealthy. Many large organizations did as well. North Korea advertised that they had also built recreational facilities like stadiums, amusements parks and even ports that could hold spaceships.
The Dallas Cowboys, Real Madrid, Barcelona, and other professional sports teams, among others, were actually willing to pay and receive a portion of the stadiums. Consider attending a game on a space station that provides a view of Earth from the stadiums' roofs.
Just the thought alone sent chills down the spine of the clubs and they madly bid for a place in the multiple stadiums built.
Since everyone was aware that North Korea had spacecraft at this point and wanted to purchase any, the ports might also be sold if any group could provide funding. North Korea was actually enjoying themselves since they were becoming obscenely wealthy with each passing second.
No other nation in recorded history has ever experienced such rapid economic growth. Even with all its natural resources, not even America. North Korea just "cycloned" its way into the wealth, but it took decades for America to become wealthy.
Normally, sanctions would be imposed on a nation if it was amassing riches at this rate, but not on North Korea. Nobody had the courage to speak out against them.
"Son, is it possible for us to visit other planets? I've seen the spacecrafts; are they actually capable of reaching other parts of the galaxy?" Robin's dad enquired.
"Dad, you need to adapt since the world is changing so quickly. Soon, we'll be able to visit other planets, see what they're like, and even communicate with the aliens they fought. It is best to become accustomed to new technologies and extremely long-distance space travel as I do not believe that all other aliens are bad." Robin answered.
Hearing this, the face of his father lit up and even his mother who almost knew nothing of space.
"We will move to the new place as soon as possible." Robin's father promised. He was pleased to see that his parents were persuaded because they would now have a better life and greater protection in space stations.
They talked more about the future, and when his parents heard how far their son had come, they were astounded and very proud of him.
Robin arrived on the rooftop at night to find Sigret and Myrene waiting for him.
"Are you going to do it?" Myrene asked.
"Yes. I've never done anything like this before." Robin said, adopting a serious tone in place of his customary easygoing expression.
"What happens if it goes wrong?" Sigret questioned since she was unsure of what Robin was going to do.
"That item has no bad intents and has merely assisted in the preservation of species. Even if it doesn't protect us, the cosmos won't suffer." Robin presented his defense.
"I'm not saying that at all. Normally, RTS games are your choice, and you have control over your summons because you play the game controlling them, but this creature is uncontrollable and moves in its own way, and the worst part is that it disappears and goes anywhere it pleases." said Sigret.
"So let it disappear. I have no doubt that it will go and assist the species that are in the most need of it." said Robin. Though he loved his control, it didn't mean he had a kink about it. He gave it a lot of thinking before deciding to take a big risk.
Bring something to a game that was not managed by the gameplay.
This was a big step for him because he had never done that and had always avoided the subject out of concern that bringing anything into the universe unchecked would produce chaos and turn him into both the creator and the destruction of worlds.
Although he didn't want to sin, he was going to make the choice because he wanted to determine whether there was ever a chance for some sort of "parley" with an uncontrolled but positive thing.
At the very least, it wouldn't harm humanity, and he had tried his hardest to expel humanity's darkness.
"Fine. Let's leave." Sigret sighed and said. After entering the TARDIS, Robin disappeared from the roof. He had already arrived on Mars when he reappeared. He sighed when he once more noticed the barren expanse and the red granite mountains. He needed to alter the landscape, which was one of the reasons he was going to make the choice.
"Time for the truth." As he unlocked his laptop, Robin stated. and then started playing a game that he had never played but that he had heard a lot about. While some people enjoyed the game, others had hoped for a more narrative-focused single-player title with superior gameplay. Although there were conflicting reviews for the game, the studio must have put a lot of effort into creating it.
The game was Destiny.
And the thing he was going to bring was the Traveler itself. Traveler, was a massive celestial entity resembling a spherical object, often described as a white, glowing orb with intricate patterns and symbols. It possesses immense power and was responsible for bestowing the Light upon Guardians, granting them supernatural abilities to protect and defend against the encroaching Darkness.
Traveler was a paracausal entity associated with Light and the main reason why Robin was going for the Traveler was its terraforming abilities and the power to bring dead people to life in order to safeguard humanity. Robin really hoped that the Traveler would continue to do the same thing it had been doing since the start of the game.
Protect humanity.
Shortly after Robin put his hand into the game, he quickly pulled out a tiny white ball. The ball was placed on the ground by Robin, but for some reason it remained a few centimeters above the ground.
As the dust-covered surface of Mars lay quiet and barren, a sudden burst of blinding light pierced through the thin atmosphere. The source of this radiant energy was a small, unassuming object that appeared just a few centimeters in size. In a matter of seconds, the small object expanded exponentially, its surface rippling and pulsating with ethereal energy. It evolved into its final shape.
Towering high above the Martian landscape, it radiated with an otherworldly brilliance, casting a warm and vibrant glow across the desolate terrain. Somehow Robin felt its presence seemed to breathe life into the dormant planet, stirring the winds and igniting the spark of hope within the hearts of those who witnessed its transformation.
The Traveler was here. And it was hovering a least 200 meters high above the surface thus Robin didn't have to move a lot when it expanded. The Traveler was so massive that it could be easily noticed with naked eye from the orbit of Mars.
Robin was speechless. He had seen the size of the Traveler with its comparison to a human city but it wasn't enough to justify it's size. This was way too massive.
