From Fortuna's entrance to the elevator, the Liset ship drops off the Tenno and Sentient Family off where the elevator is. As the three got in the elevator and it descended, the Operator couldn't help but feel nostalgic. The colony hasn't been the same since the Narmer Invasion, just as the Operator remembers it in their past life. But it's still the good ol' colony trying to fight off the debt from the Corpus even after being free from the Narmer Veils. Seeing this place still working just like in their previous life, the Operator felt like it was just like the old times, but never said it. After all, if this is their second chance, might as well not mention anything about the past.
Anyway, the moment they reached the bottom and the two stepped off the elevator, they immediately got attention from the workers. As they were walking around, Adis and the Tenno noted how a lot of the workers were staring at the them in shock, some even whispering that Adis managed to eavesdrop thanks to his system hacking their conversations.
"Holy, is that the Tenno?!" - Solaris Worker 1
"Yeah, it's them! But who's that thing with them? Is it a new Sentinel?" - Solaris Worker 2
"No- wait, that's a Sentient! But they're...blue and...not evil." - Solaris Worker 3
"Yeah, and he seemed to have a mask resembling an actual face too." - Solaris Worker 4
Adis just sighs, until~
"Wait, do you see their fingers?!" - - Solaris Worker 5
"Yeah, those weird circle-bands around their ring-finger- WAIT A MINUTE." - Solaris Worker 6
"NO...WAY...IS THE TENNO MARRIED?!" - Solaris Worker 7
"AND LOOK IN THE TENNO'S ARMS, IS THAT...A KID?!" - Solaris Worker 8
And there's that. Adis chuckles, these bios caught on quick. As Adis looks and locks eyes with the Operator, the two share a smirk while their child. (That's right, people. Look at your hero, who is apparently now married to a Sentient, whom most didn't know was a best friend to the Tenno long ago, before becoming soulbound and eventually married after reuniting centuries later. 😏)

When the two stopped by where the usual gathering for the Solaris was in the backroom, they were greeted by Little Bird.
"Well look who came visiting with their spouse and child. What brings you here to Fortuna, Tenno?" - Little Bird
"Well actually, we are just going on tour across the Origin System as our honeymoon! Fortuna was the first on our list! I was wondering if you also has some missions we can do?" - Operator
The Tenno said this, while Adis was cuddling behind them, their head resting on their shoulder and their hand patting their child's head, to which Aya smiled innocently. Little Bird chuckled in her head, but never showed it.
"Well, we do have some missions we can have you do. Usually Eudico is the one who gives you those bounties, but she is busy with something else new, and she needed The Businessman to help coordinate. Anyway, we have intel that some of our fellow workers got captured by Nef Anyo's forces. Basically the same thing if you remember?" - Little Bird
The Operator nods while also using their hand to headpat Adis, who is sneaking small kisses to their neck. Usually, with discipline, the Tenno would remain unaffected. But when it's Adis, you know the Operator melts immediately and leans in. Little Bird sees this while sighing, but also noting the Child in the Operator's arms.
"Also, are you seriously doing the "Bring Your Child To Work" thing?" - Little Bird
The Tenno chuckles.
"Well I'm not in my warframe cause i'll be fine. Also my little Aya can defend herself, trust me. 😏" - Operator
Then the Tenno looked into their child's eyes.
"You ready to see me in action, my little Aya~? 🥰" - Operator
Aya gleams and cheers in excitement.
"Well, she sure is you. Be careful out there, Tenno." - Little Bird
"I'll be fine, besides should I die again, I got my Infinite Respawn Point right here~" - Operator
The Tenno said this while kissing Adis's forehead, referring to their "Infinite Respawn Point" as literally Adis.
And so, the family leave to head up to the back elevator that would take them up to Orb Vallis, a vast, open landscape world where the Corpus and recently pockets of Narmer forces are fighting for control of. As Little Bird watches them, she sighs again while chuckling.
"The Tenno is literally something else, huh?" - Little bird
