[GM]
Koba seems temporarily unconscious, but in moments what he was looking
at is revealed.  The door opens up and reveals a young brunette haired woman,
a young man who looks to be a Cyberknight, and another man, African
by appearance, in what looks like some sort of medieval armor with a
lion crest emblazoned on it.  The African man whispers something inaudible
to his companions.
