Rostislavovna Residence, New Jui'varen
The peaceful farmer's land is the best description when you saw this place. It was surrounded by large fields of food growing under the warm sun. The farm was close to a large forest to one side and a river at the other and domestic animals were being fed by a small, yet beautiful blond Daur with a cheerful little girl running around. Inside the house, a typical farmer's house, you could find that the house was built from strong wood with some metal foundations. Yet the house itself was made from wood from the nearby forest. A man with red hair took a sip of his early drink as he smirks a bit with a grin to the article on his tablet that told about the heavy losses that a sports club made in a certain match.
The door smashes open as an overactive little girl with a basket in her hand's sprints towards her father and jumps up and down, not realizing that the gathered fruit was almost going out of the basket. "Look pops, loook what I gathered with momma! Its soo much and so tasty!" She said as the man smile softly seeing how his daughter's mouth was red of the berries she had picked and pets his daughter that smiles happily getting the praise of her father.
"You have gathered that all by yourself?" Vivaldo spoke finally to his daughter who nods quickly "Now now Lorella, calm down half of your proud gathering is falling out of the basket" It was only then that Lorella did notice it and quickly went to the ground to pick up the berries as her tail goes swooping left and right. Matilde walks into the room and shook her head softly with a small smile on her face "Lorella I told you not to jump around" Matilde spoke placing the basket of food on the kitchen table sorting out some of the veggies "Have you heard from Del yet? Or is he still on that job out town?"
Leaning back in his chair he could hear Lorella muttering a bit to herself as a reaction of her mother "No, I was told that he finished that job yet was dragged into another job that popped up and he told in his message to me that he be out of town for a while. Strangely enough, he didn't tell me what he was doing..." Vivaldo said with a bit of a sign on the end as he puts down his pad looking at his wife "But To answer another question of yours from earlier, I will be in the field later this afternoon the boys had found some spoiled crops" He shrugs knowing how much dirt work that would be.
Looking over her shoulder to her husband "Mmm spoiled crops are an issue, hope it's not just an excuse to watch the games" She looked back at the basket and continues to get the veggies out "I just wish to have Del home, I miss Aida and Dalida already too much. But now my son also?" Matilda sighs leaning forward "How much does this family have to turn in. Can we not just go back to being one big happy family" Vivaldo could hear the sadness in his wife's voice and stands up walking to her to hug her "They will come back one day, but they grow up and have their own stars to find" As he said that, the doorbell goes and Lorella jumps up "I GOOOO" Vivaldo smiles at his daughter excitement and kisses his wife on the cheek "Don't worry so much, we got that little furball to keep us busy" He lets go as he heard more footsteps entering the room "Dad, these men wants to talk to you..." He looked seeing Shukara Volunteer Navy uniform feeling his wife hand taking a grip of his hand-tied.
The two men stood at attention "U'Cetrinal La Rostislavovna, SVN Command request your attention for a delicate matter, you have been recalled for active duty in name of the Kingdom" The Laibe spoke formal and looking at the man.
"Have my husband not done enough for the Kingdom! He has served for years, got injured and barely got back to us! He did everything for this Kingdom and still, you dare to recall him back to service!" Matilda yelled at them as Lorella walked to her mother side as Vivlado could understand his wife's frustration, he had served the Kingdom for years and saw most horrific things that still scared him to this day. There were enough people that could do any military job, yet if the brass was going for him then something was up, something had happened that needed his experience.
"We understand your frustration ma'am, but the command has the right to recall any military soldier back to service if they seem it deemed fit. P'Iurebe Liberto requests your attention as soon as possible" The Laibe continues.
He looked at the Laibe with a bit amaze "Ryurikov..." He mutters and looked back at his wife "Love, I am going to go there and see what is going on... Liberto knows how much I value this retirement so I might decline his request" He could see the tears in Matilde's eyes and kissed her lips softly "Don't worry, I will be back for dinner..." He lets go of her hand and pets his daughter over the head as he walked with the officers outside to the car that was waiting on them.
SVN Spaceport New Jui'varen
The ride took some time and yet not a word was said in the car. He stepped out of the car and walked with the men into the spaceport to get into the elevator as some military folks nod to them with formality. When arriving at the main office on the top floor he sees Ryurikov sitting there behind his desk and looked up "U'Cetrinal La Rostislavovna have been transported as requested sir" The Laibe spoke to the other sitting Laibe that simply nodded to the man "Dismissed..." The two saluted their commander and left the office as Valvido stood there with not so impressed expression on his face "Oh cheer up Val... you grow old from that look" Ryurikov smiled at him.
"Amuse me then, why am I being dragged out of my peaceful life to be here in front of your desk. What does SVN want, I got to get back to my family and calm my wife"
He leans a bit back in his chair and nods "How is Matilde?" He sees the look on his old friend's eyes "Alright...always direct all business with you, right?" Ryurikov smirks a bit at that and looked outside seeing a ship leave for orbit "The main command requested specifically for you...." He taps on something as the doors looked at the windows gets darker [Room is sealed] was heard as a confirmation "You see Val...they got their hands full with the constant threat of the terrorist attacking our people with their puny idealism of saving the kingdom. But what you hear right now, is for you and your crew ears only" He looked at his friend's eyes.
Then his prediction was right, there was something going on that was beyond any paygrade in the military. If there is a bigger problem then they have with the terrorist groups, then shit really had hit the fan "A crew? What are you talking about Ryu...Why put me in charge of something and what is going on in the Kingdom that you had to call me back" Vivaldo spoke calmly, yet he with concern eyes as he chooses to stand.
"Well, you know what Lunebaren Crystals is right? It is the prime energy of our Kingdom that is mined at our homeworld" He leans a bit forward "Yet for years the government has concealed a problem with the consumption of these mines. When we use more of it, the crystals spread, yet in the normal sense of it...that would be good. Unlimited source of power, yet we can't hold back the growth of it and it is spreading quite rapidly. Aside from that, it is causing some effects on the miners that get sick from mining or even working long periods of exposure with it" He said in a very calm and serious tone.
"Meaning that the kingdom requires a new power source, simply stop the mining and move on?" Vivaldo said with some blinking of his eyes "Or...those stubborn bastards don't want to do that..." He sighs then as he rubs his eyes with his hand as if he wanted to facepalm himself.
Ryurikov nods slowly "The Kingdom has no real alternative for the power problem and wishes to keep this problem in control. Yet it forms the problem that we need a new home for our people. With most of the shipmasters in space dealing with one important mission after another, the command allows the use of a Litos'kan class ship to start its exploration mission to find us a new home. They need experienced naval officers that have a good sense of planetary exploration. You hit the top mark in their profile seeking" He said with a smirk "I know how much it means this retirement and the brass acknowledge this burden also. You have done quite a lot for the Kingdom, but that is why you are sent on this type of mission, no real danger and safe return towards home"
Every kind of emotion went through him, Vivaldo wanted to have his peaceful life and now he gets chained to this mission that the Kingdom had demanded of him "How am I even going to tell Matilde about this...if it's top secret and such. And what ship are you chaining me to..."
"Your wife can be informed about the situation, yet she will be asked to keep secrecy to it as is demanded to all crew members. Your wife is an exemption of the said list, as the brass knows the emotional damage she already had suffered. But she requires to stay quiet about it. The ship in question is named SNV Cercatore Di Stella and is waiting in orbit of Nesha Prime for its crew and new shipmaster. They have not yet informed me how long this will take, but I presume when the planet is found you can go home" Ryurikov spoke and looked at his old friend when he taps the key again and the room is opened and the window gets clear "Welcome back to service U'Cetrinal"
Vivaldo knew that he had no right to speak now about the mission in this room with its open, he just had to do it and nods to him leaving the office without a word said. He was not looking forward to the conversation with his wife But he had to leave the next day to get to his ship, to receive his crew if not already present. There was so much going on, yet he had a feeling that this was not a one time mission.
