After the Action Officers departed, silence returned to the cabin.
In the anxious wait, only Mr. KP was leaning over the table, writing and drawing on his charts, comfortably humming tunes and occasionally tossing a couple of dice. Soon, a stack of papers piled up on the table.
The middle-aged man who had been presiding watched for a long time, his curiosity finally getting the better of him. "Mr. KP, what are you doing?" he asked.
"Just a game," KP said, looking up. "I wonder if everyone here enjoys games?"
"Hmm?" The crowd looked over, puzzled.
"Since we're all bored anyway, why not try a tabletop role-playing game?" KP tossed the dice into the air, caught them, and introduced cheerfully, "This game is quite popular on the Darknet Border. Though the rules are complex, its freedom and fun are unmatched by any computer game. Once you try it, you'll be hopelessly immersed."
"Hmm?" Someone seemed intrigued. "How exactly do you play? Is it like mahjong or poker?"
