The sheer amount of people located in the dining area was a surprise to Apophis as he entered the area, following Krobb to the lower deck and level of the ship after leaving the slumber area with the rooms to sleep in on the Dark Aster.
"This here is the consumable deck where all the food and drinks are located," Krobb explained as he led Apophis into the large area where many others were eating breakfast.
"So this is the Nagain that joined us," A man with a metal plate on his head said."It must be something for Ronan to bring him aboard," He commented, studying Apophis appearance.
"Don't mind, Korath; let's find you a spot to sit and eat. Ronan will come to get you when he ready to train you," Krobb said, finding Aopohis an empty spot at the far end of the table, away from most of the others here.
Apophis nodded as he sat down at the spot he was led to, and while Krobb went to grab him some breakfast.
"Here you go, kid, eat up," Krobb said, placing a bowl of yellow and pink mush fruit sauce."It is Lunar fruit mixed with Yoro Root sauce. If you don't like it, then I'll get you a bowl of crispy."
"No, this will be fine," Apophis replied, picking up the spoon and eating the sauce he was given for breakfast.
"Figure you like that better than what was cooked for breakfast today," Krobb stated, sitting with the rest of the older crew on the other side of the table.
Apophis simply shrugged his shoulder, seeing he didn't really look at what the others were eating for breakfast. When he walked, he entered the consumable deck with Krobb.

Apophis was about to finish up with his fruit sauce. That was when he heard his name being called.
"Apophis come here, boy," A male voice called out to him.
He looked up from his empty bowl to see that the voice was coming from Ronan, who was signaling for him to come on over to him.
"Yes, Ronan, sir," He said, getting up from the seat and walking over to Ronan.
"You need better clothes than this for training, so come along with me so you can put on the clothes I pulled out of the storage room," Ronan said, leading Apophis off to get ready for training with him.
"Understand," Apophis said as he followed Ronan's lead closely and silently.
Ronan looked over at Apophis, seeing his expression, and could tell that he would become a worthy assassin seeing how serious he seemed for his age.
The walk leads the two back to Apophis's bedroom.
"Your clothes are inside your room on the bed. Get changed and grab the weapon I gave you," Ronan commanded."I will be waiting for you out here," He said.
Apophis opened the door and entered his bedroom, where he spotted a dark green baggy jacket and matching pants and put them on after taking off his pajamas. Once he was changed into the clothes for training, he grabbed the small weapon off the shelf where he had left it last night and walked towards the door, opening it.
"I see the clothes are a bit baggy on you, but that's fine. There just training wear for now," Ronan said, looking over the outfit that Apophis was wearing."Now time to start your first day of training, boy," He said, looking back at Apophis following him.
