Re: Abyss Station - Ancient Artifact
Listening, and taking 'onboard', the concerns of his crew, ch'Pertha altered his plan a little.
Stepping over to a nearby console, he proceeded to bring up some files. After a quick consideration, he said,
"OK, everyone suit up, except Nipay and Hanada ... you two stay with this shuttle, please. Continue scans, both to keep those bay doors open, and to gather any information you can. And be prepared to pilot this wagon out of here at a moment's notice.
Everyone else, we'll move as a group into the hanger bay. We'll attempt to get that other wagon awake.
If we can, Preston takes it into geo-synchronous orbit, and provides a second wave of scans, as backup to the first. And remains prepared to rescue us all, if things don't go well.
T'Lara and Decker, I feel it is imperative that we understand that alien language as best we can, as fast as we can, so please keep working on that".
Once everyone was ready to go, ch'Pertha led the way; with Preston as rear-guard ... into the dragon's den, the proverbial 'lions mouth'.
