The average Sioux citizens’ perception of Ares has always been complicated, with a mix of suspicion that the company is actually a front for the UCAS  military and a genuine appreciation for the quality of their products and front-line approach to dealing with the insect spirits . Their public falling-out with UCAS President Colloton  actually boosted Ares’ reputation in the Očéti Šakówiŋ, and their presence in the Sioux market has continued to grow. With restrictions on their activities lessened, Ares secured a number of profitable government contracts in the 2073 bid cycle, including a multi-billion nuyen project to launch a constellation of surveillance satellites for OMI and a refit of the SDF  air defense network.

The higher-ups in the Sioux government took the departure of Roger Soaring Owl  from his leadership position in Knight Errant hard, though it obviously hasn't affected Ares’ competitive clout in the country. The district manager, Selena Redfoot, is responsible for a great deal of Ares’ continued successes in the Očéti Šakówiŋ. Unfortunately for Shiawase  and Mesametric, she has proven too loyal to be extracted and, so far, too smart to fall victim to a most unfortunate accident. Redfoot answers to Ares America, which is a division of Ares Arms, entirely separate from the hierarchy of Ares Agribusiness. She and the Ares Cheyenne central administration also oversee other Očéti Šakówiŋ-based branches of Ares' business, including Ares Transporation, which provides Public Transportation for the city of Tsêhéstáno.

Knight Errant remains the largest private security provider in the Očéti Šakówiŋ, even with Roger Soaring Owl's departure from the company. The SNP has received training from Knight Errant advisers and its an open secret that the local branch of KE marches to OMI's tune.

Ares’ Sioux Nation Office Complex is not as lavish or as opulent as its office complexes in other sprawls such as Manhattan, and the building itself is best described as Spartan by most accounts. Word on the streets is that Ares prefers to keep a lower profile in the Sioux Nation so as not to agitate those who oppose an Anglo-run or foreign corporations in the
Sioux government and risk having their enemies accuse them of trying to brand everything in the Sioux Nation with an Ares logo. This fifteen-story, plain-brown building houses offices for Knight Errant and Executive Protection Services to manage their private security contracts, along with offices for Ares Global Entertainment and Ares Integrated Solutions (which focuses on heavy industry operations). Ares also has offices in its complex designated for its operations of Tsêhéstáno’s mass transit systems, including bus, taxis, and light rail. In the sub-levels there are research facilities belonging
to Cerebrotech and Crystal Optics.
