"Hmm, not bad," Mav said, letting out a soft breath of relief. "What about the planetary defense grid? Have you told her about—"
Before he could even finish, Ritika cut in, "All of that has already been delegated to EVE—she will handle it. What remains is deciding how we deal with the population affected by the Red Fog we detonated across this star system's habitable worlds. That is something I haven't addressed yet."
"Hmm, about that..."
Mav remained silent for a moment before looking directly at her and speaking up. "You don't need to worry about that. It isn't our responsibility. The Department of Terraforming & Planetary Engineering will deal with the mess we left behind, terraforming those worlds to fit our needs." With a casual wave of his hand, he added, "They should already be on their way."
