I woke up refreshed like a new man. I stared upward as began to open the pods door, getting out.
"When did I pass out? Better yet, how long did i sleep?"
{Leader had passed out as soon as they reached the pod, leader has slept like a hibernating bear for 31 hours 32 minutes and 42 seconds. It was due to exhaustion and restoration of the body.}
"That's... actually amazing."
{Yes! The regen pod also has a recommended sleeping timer, allowing users to sleep for their recommended time for ages.}
"What's mine?"
{Leader is 27 years old, recommended time is 8 hours. Leader hasn't properly slept due to insomnic disorder, making leader unable to sleep properly. Upgrading the Regen Pod will eventually help Leader get recommended sleep.}
{Also, leader is unable to properly eat due to a major eating disorder. Shall Deviant make reminders to eat and sleep?}
"Yes."
{Reminders made! At 8am, 12pm, 8pm will notify leader for food. At 9pm will notify leader for sleep.}
I began to organize my things. Sets of clothes in the closet, toiletries on the shelf by the door, a laptop given by my father placed on the desk, entertainment stuff on shelves above, and...
I stared at the pictures. Me, Father, and Mother at my highschool graduation. Another for my University diploma of just me and father. Then a team picture with the core members and the Black Rovers, and lastly, one with my research team.
I placed them directly on the desk's shelf. My parents on the desk itself. Even if our relationship is strained and nonexistent, they're still my parents.
I stared at the pictures. Sighing defeatedly. I noticed that I could see better.
"Does the regen pod also work with blindness or sight loss?"
{Correct. Leader who was nearsighted is now recovered. However, if you still feel uncomfortable, you can still wear non-prescription glasses.}
"I see. That's useful." I stated before finishing up.
I went to take a shower, used my food ration and ate it.
"Shelter Ascension."

{Assign roles and tiers based on Contribution and Behaviour. It will also track names, ages, contributions, behavior traits, and tier. Listed above the head for leader and division leaders to see. Others will just see name, tier, and role.}
"Can't really do much here then."
I went back and onto the next tab Inventory.

Personal items are not counted for. The inventory will automatically record, but once the Inventory & Resource Management Room is built, it will be accessible to the inventorers.}
"Makes sense." I nodded. I sat on the couch.

"So, Evolutions need Karma Points?"
{Correct. Evolution is based on the inhabitants mood and satisfaction, Shelter level, and shelter grade. Each area has 10 levels before the namext rank.}
"I dont have any right now. Does it also include me?"
{No. Leaders are exempt from the karma points.}
"Dang." I sighed. Headed to the next Military.
