"Indeed, they are a bit quieter than the engines of most other ships. I've been on Sovereignty vessels before. Overall, I would say they are efficiently designed, if not quite as...aesthetically pleasing. It's not like a military vessel is made to look good, though. They are made to wage war. Despite what some might try to tell you, even Rothian architectural design has a functional purpose. Curved surfaces don't have as many points of failure as angled ones." Rareth commented to Shiva. The small talk continued for a while until the rest of the team arrived and took their seats. Then, with the press of a button on her wrist computer, Rareth directed the dropship's autopilot to take them to the spaceport. With military clearance, they were able to avoid the standard lanes of traffic and head directly to their hanger. Their ship was a Rothian corvette, which, while not the largest class of vessel, was still rather large at around a thousand meters in length. It had two hanger bays, one on either side. By Ashley's request, Rareth made sure to take them to the one that contained the Hummingbird. She was sure to message the ship ahead of time to report their arrival, so there was a welcoming party awaiting them once they landed. As soon as the ramp lowered, Rareth saw a group of officers of all races, Dirophyds excepted. They each had uniforms of their respective races, with one in particular being highly decorated: a Tempu male who was the first to step forward, salute, and greet them. "Ah, it is good to finally meet you all. I am Repentant Solace, the new Captain of the, forgive my pronunciation, Tares'Synkuur. Boundless Light, translated. For those of you who sent your belongings ahead of time, we have taken the liberty of moving them to your quarters on the starboard side. There are a higher than average number of officers on this mission, so you may not all have your own rooms, but it should not be crowded. You may go there now if you wish, we will be departing for our destination shortly. In the meantime, however, I like to get to know my crew. If you so choose, I would like to take the time for more detailed introductions." The other officers with Captain Solace stepped forward as well to give their introductions. The First Officer was a Rothian woman by the name of Fa'Vita. The Requisitions Officer, Akilah, who most of the team was already familiar with, was also present. The two other officers were the Maintenance Officer, a Rothian male named Korak'Vaer, and the Communications Officer, a Masulu male called Hirintka. After exchanging names, each of them remained to speak with the team who were at the center of this entire mission.
