Greetings, Resident Hale, Identification number 01821.

I am Sear.

And welcome to Mimir 9.

This is, without a doubt, somewhat of a shock to you.

When you departed Earth three days past, all expectations were that you

would be en route to Typhon to begin work in Halcyon Tower. However, there have been some minor

interruptions as of late that necessitated rerouting several hundred inbound residents to various

other arrival stations.

And so here you are.

I could, at this point, read to you in full the recommended new resident script as written by

Aarleth H.R. several decades ago. But honestly, its high times of updating was done there. Perhaps that job would fall to one of your fellow new arrivals here,

as the entirety of Airless HR department is located within this orbital satellite.

This was not always the case.

Aarleth HR was on Typhon itself when the first residence arrived for work.

It was surmise that proximity was necessary for efficient oversight of employee needs and performance.

However, over the first few months of this arrangement, it became readily apparent that this was

less than ideal.

This department has an obligation to assign residents in positions where they can best serve airless

needs, and this is not always a positive experience for the residents being assigned.

Some HR employees found it difficult to make tough choices with respect to residents they knew personally.

And with others, the opposite reaction occurred.

Familiarity bred contempt, and assignment decisions were made out of malice.
