Dolan stood up to follow the man, but froze on his second step whenever the man suddenly stopped. He heard a feminine voice ring out, and as Dolan peered into the darkness, he could make out a faint silhouette of who could only be the source of the voice. The ship rocked, and the man clearly lost his balance for a second. Dolan, however, managed to stay balanced (for the most part), but also lost his balance for at least a brief moment.

The man stated that is was obvious they were all Awakened. "Shit," thought Dolan. "There goes my advantage that could've saved my life." The man then looked out the window, Dolan did the same, and Dolan saw Martian ships. The man then requested Shadow Names, after stating they needed to stick together, as Mages, to get out of this.

Dolan could not turn this down. "I'm sooooo gonna miss my vacation..." he mused as a form of comedic relief for himself. "Alright, you can refer to me as Ryan. If necessary, call me Ryan Black." He said this to both figures.
