The celebration is turning out rather well. With such a variety of guests, there had been no hint of violence nor even a threat of it. I can only guess that it is due to the security measures that are in place. Some had worried that agents of the Dark Empire would arrive, but there had been no hint of that either.
Everyone was preoccupied. Some of the guests had even left. And for the most part I had been left on my own. It was a strange thing; for once the handover of governance was completed, I had become as visable as a shadow in the dark. I had not even been asked to dance. Perhaps it is my age or the absence of leadership over New Cov.
I take a glass of wine from the tray of a passing staff member and find my gaze settling on the youngest guests at this event. They all have their lives in front of them where anything can happen. Provided their paths were not already laid out for them.
Not wanting my gaze to linger for too long on them, I take a sip of my wine and walk over to the nearest balcony overlooking the city. Fortunately it is otherwise empty. Now I can take a small breather, as it were.
There is much for me to do soon after this event. There is a new domed city being built, complete with new labs, a new headquarters and everything for my new division under N&Z. Events such as these will not be the norm for me. I will be able to focus more on my experiments and discoveries. I can continue to bury myself into my work. That was far better than my newfound invisibility.
