Arc 1, Thread 1: The Liberation of Pyongyang (Lyla)
It's been several days after the Raid on the Buchenwald. As expected, Core and Command have accepted Five Days Darkness's resignation and allowed him to keep the captaincy of the Enterprise. With the Enterprise under repair, he and Lyla have made the most of their spare time. They've made a LOT out of their spare time.
But business has to come eventually, and when it does, the mood on the Enterprise is sober. They take off from the Last Refuge as a skeleton crew, nothing in the hangar but Lyla's Benisuzume and the tin-can jumpship Odysseus, freshly slathered with paint and duct tape. The crew of around eight hundred has been reduced to 50.
Lyla's in the hangar, tending to the Benisuzume, when XO Chambers approaches Lyla and gives her a snappy salute.
"Lyla Raines," She says, "We're deploying out towards unknown space in five minutes. Is the Benisuzume up to your standards?"
Lyla knows the plan, of course; she and Five Days Darkness have discussed it at length in private. The Abyssal prison ship Pyongyang was discovered by Journeys just a day earlier. The plan: the Enterprise jumps halfway towards the Pyongyang and drops her off with the Odysseus. The Odysseus makes the secondary jump, dropping her off just outside of the Pyongyang's sensors. Then she docks with the Pyongyang, infiltrates, and- well- saves Swan Dragon, a Lesser Elemental Dragon of Fire.
Sure. Easy. Right.
There's not much else to go on. Journeys couldn't get too close, but from what pictures he could take they could tell the Pyongyang has a different structure from the Buchenwald. The floor plan isn't the same.
