@Tricheus "Unfortunately, we won't have time to do a space walk before the battle begins, and its too risky to do one mid-hyperspace jump. So you'll have to just do your best to fix it from inside the ship" Stirling replied to Kathy. Having one cannon down was better then multiple, but he would have much preferred all the weapons be online by the time of the battle. The captain sighed, finishing out his cigar.

@Elitestpotato Just then, the ship's pilot, Master Chief Petty Officer Sans, entered the bridge, and addressed the captain with "How you doing, Cap?". Captain Stirling cleared his throat, then glared at the Petty Officer, saying "Petty Officer Sans would to well to remember that he IS on-duty, and should address superior officers in an according manner. But to answer your question, I'm doing fine. Now please, man your station." Stirling gestured briefly to a chair in front of the main navigation console.

@Tricheus Yes, so feel free to make up an NPC, and as there are multiple crew rotations, he doesn't have to be the same one as later on.

Captain Stirling had been in somewhat deep thought when Alice approached him. She asked him if he was expecting trouble, and he nodded. "Intel says that with the exact time we left Orpheus IV's spacedock and entered hyperspace, we should arrive exactly in time for the first shots of the battle. And I'll be frank with you, Alice, I don't want this to be a repeat of the Gloval Catastrophe...." The 'Gloval Catastrophe' was the name used to describe the event in which the newly-anointed Captain James Gloval, a man regarded at the time as the greatest academy graduate in the last decade, lost control of both his cruiser the Vindication, and all of its crew to the rebel forces it was engaged with. This event being considered the most costly disaster of the war. With many people now praising Stirling as the the next great Academy man, he didn't want to follow in Gloval's footsteps anymore than he had to.

Captain Nicholas Stirling was anxious. Not only had he been just made a captain, and given a newly commissioned ship, but it also had a very mixed-experience crew, a borderline radical AI, and was set to arrive in a combat zone from Hyperspace in 2 hours. Rebels had been spotted massing forces for a planetary invasion of Sotra, a strategic outer colony with access points to most major Outer Colony systems. As the Convergence of Destiny arced through hyperspace, he lit a cigar, one of his favorite cuban brands, and turned his head to address the shipboard AI "Alice, contact the med-techs, and have them begin waking up the rest of the crew from cryosleep. Marines and combat-essential personal first. And once the marine Dropship pilots are up, have them make all the necessary preparations to launch for the planet as soon as we're within range of Sotra's atmosphere." He took a few puffs of his cigar, exhaled deeply, then addressed the Communications Officer "Ensign, monitor all UESA comms traffic for the Sotra system, and work with Navigation to plot the best coordinates for our system entry, based on where they need us." Another puff of the cigar, and he looked at the Weapons officer "Have all weapons online and ready to fire by the time we enter the system, and make sure all fighter pilots are ready to launch." He keyed the intercom for the entire ship and said "This is Captain Stirling speaking. All hands prepare to exit hyperspace in two Translight Hours. We will be entering into a live combat zone, so I want all personal ready to assume Battle Stations the moment we hit real space. Captain Stirling, out." He sighed, took another puff of his cigar, and leaned back slightly in his command chair. Had a person taken the time to look the captain over, he would have appeared eerily calm, but this was far from an accurate representation as to how he really felt. He was nervous, worried, and even a bit scared. But he had no doubt that neither he nor his crew would fail in this battle, and he was going to see that out to the fullest.

Jack stepped into the Castle interior, and was immediately impressed with its extravagance. He looked to the Queen "This is certainly a befitting home for one of royalty such as yourself. I am humbled to be in its presence." The Queen mentioned moving on the the Eye's chambers, which Jack gave a curt nod to in reply "We should not tarry. The Shadow Eternity forces could be here at any moment." He began to eye the rooms a bit more cautiously, keeping a hand close to the hilt of his sword.
