Kazen had used an entrance that was close to the reactor room of which Soren was in so he heard him arrive. Exiting out of the room and walking down the hall he entered the work space of Alister and James. "Hello Kazen." He said not remembering that he didn't look like Merric much. So features were still the same but others weren't. His hair was shorter now and he looker younger than he once did, but he still held the air about him that he was him. The darkness that was in the room had spilled over from whatever had transferred him three hundred years into the future but was now being cleared by spheres of light the floated around the room. While Kazen had been on his way over Soren had activated the security protocols to clear the rooms of anything that might cause problems and after convincing the computer he wasn't a threat went about turning so of the other systems back on. Now he faced his friend as the orbs finally cleared the room of the nasty smell of darkness scuttering off to other rooms to clean. "So how are things?" he asked his friend with a smile.
