A scene with stark similarities to Khan and Monica's first date played on the white desert.
Khan walked forward, his weightless steps leaving no marks on the white sand while his glowing gaze remained on the messy horizon ahead.
Meanwhile, Monica strolled with her hands clung behind her back, slowing down whenever her shoes dug into the sand, seemingly wanting to experience its texture.

Truth be told, Khan would normally have to get those politically trivial matters done as quickly as possible. After all, the promised universal war had finally arrived, and his power and status gave him a crucial role in arranging the allied side's forces.
