Eleisai:
The older woman stirs, and opens her eyes.
"I think that it understands me, and that we will remain linked to the ship via these floating orbs even if we move around outside. I believe that it regards us as crew members."
"I am going to try to find out more information about this place. Please stand by..."
She closes her eyes again, and reaches through the mental link.
:: What do you know of this place? What can you sense? Is it safe for us to explore? Is there anything here that would be useful to you or to us? ::
Eleisai sees the black void beyond the silvery landscape below turn, and as she turns her head to look out of one portion of the clear material of the vessel's control room, all of the vessel's crew can see an impossibly enormous orb "below" them, an orb with a neat, four-pointed star-shaped portion in browns and tans and greens, with streaks of black in broad swathes, and a large circle on one portion. Surrounding it is a stretch of blue that extends around the edges of the curved globe, and over all is a haze of thin white that brushes across the surface here and there.
It is the large hollow circle that twigs everyone's memory - a circle so perfect and clean and huge that it could only be one thing: The Clock of Kala. But now sees so small, so far away and below you... you are seeing the world, the whole world, at an impossibly far distance!
The silvery landscape the drifts below the vessel, the green buildings... this must be the moon in the sky, the one that ofttimes wears a streak of green across its face! Somehow the vessel has taken you to the moon itself!
