[An announcement is playing. It shows Alex alone trying to look in control.]
Hi everyone
I've been staying here for the last week following the attack on Brussels and I've met several of you already and I imagine the rest of you have at least heard about the battle, but I'd better introduce myself anyway. My name is Alexandra de Witt and at the battle it turned out that I have the ability to call on the power of the Sumerian god Enki to fight monsters sent by the king of the gods Enlil...I don't think that will ever stop sounding insane. Regardless, I can summon the Sumerian god Enki as essentially a giant robot and while I think there won't be any more monsters, I still can't be sure.
I've spent the last week trying to figure out what to do about that and I have come to a decision. I will stay with you and help protect the world against alien invaders and rampaging monsters. I never thought about becoming a soldier before, but I have a powerful weapon in my hands that I can't hand over to somebody else and I can't just turn away and let others fight in that situation. So I'm officially introducing myself.
...And I'm probably also going to need to ask for your help in learning how to properly fight. I can pilot, or whatever you want to call it, Enki just fine, but I have no training in tactics or other parts of how to handle myself on the battle field.

[Later that day Alex can be found sitting slumped against the wall a short distance down the corridor from the gym to the showers. She's wearing what looks like very new training clothes that appear to be drenched in sweat.]
...Maybe I overdid it.

[Alex pushed herself to get up again, wincing in pain as she did so and standing a bit uncertainly.]
See, I'm fine.

[Seta quickly moves to put her hands on your shoulders, Alex. She's trying to brace in case you tip over.]
You...do not look so fine.
...Um, what was it that you were doing out there?

Working out. I guess not getting any since I stopped having PE in school was worse than I thought.

...What is a PE?

And PE is athletics exercises at school.

That...is true...
However, if you believe that you are overdoing it, perhaps...you could ask one of the more experienced members to supervise your exercise...?

...But...it would not hurt for someone to be there while your body adjusts, would it?
