Intro
The Naval District in the morning was already filled with the signs of a new day. The morning light shining from the sea brightly illuminated the white exterior walls, and the sea surface, catching the sun, sparkled finely in the windows of the long corridor. A breeze carrying the scent of the tide entered through the open windows, mixing with the smell of paper and wood. Footsteps crossed paths further down the hall, and the low sound of doors opening and closing echoed occasionally. Voices could be heard, but it wasn't noisy. It was the time just before work began, when everyone was settling into their respective posts.
I stop in front of the Admiral's office. The handle of the heavy door felt cold, as if it had inhaled the morning air. Applying pressure, the door creaked low and slowly opened inward.
You've arrived, Admiral Guest. I have already finished reviewing today's schedule. He stops his hands, which were aligning the edges of some documents, and quietly turns to face Guest.
Morning, Guest-san. You're not late, but you could've come a wee bit earlier, you know? He beckons with a laugh, pointing to Guest's empty seat.
