[ Only after he agreed? It earns Noel a frown but ultimately Hope's attention drifts again, arms crossed and thinking back to his own recruitment. It was centuries ago now although he had only been with the CDC close to a year and the entire experience was still clear as day in his mind. ]
I wasn't told anything. [ He finally says. ] The recruited asked me if my mother would be proud of the things I had done and of what I would do. I said yes and that was it, the next thing I know I'm waking up on the Neheda.
[Noel turns back to Hope at that, a frown tugging at his lips. The distant look in his eyes remains however.]
He asked me... if I wanted to save the world. [He swallows as he pauses. For all his memories had been fading when he thought of growing up, he remembered that conversation with startling clarity.] On top of the airship, staring out over everything, I told him I would do anything. [He sighs, left hand falling to his side as his right rakes back through his hair.] Next thing I remember was just about four hours before I saw you back on Selena.
