Arild sat down heavily in his chair. It had been a busy three days, getting the ship back into order after the chaos that Baker had left. However he'd managed it, with a lot of help from Robert, the AI, Koji, Tanjo, Oni and, grudgingly, Ephesus. He still hated the Elysian for his race, but he would have to agree (not audibly), that the scientist was useful. Together they'd managed to organise the ship, repair it, and even fit new weapon systems. So understandably Arild was tired. Never the less, he opened up a ship wide broad cast:
"This is your Captain speakin,
In precisely one hour we are going to enter Nepleslian space where we shall drop out from CDD, we shall then continue to the planet using the gravitic engine, before staying in a geostationary orbit above Funky City for a week, to allow the colonists to come aboard. I want you to all be on your best behaviour, these people will make up the majority of the population, so we want to give a good impression. Also remember these are Nepleslians, so be on your guard and keep aware. Taisha out."
Arild held his head in his hands, gently massaging his temples before opening up a second broad cast, this time to all the military police and security forces. The security forces now included almost all the infantry.
"This is your Captain again.
I want you all to be in hall three in twenty minutes. I want to speak to you myself before we arrive at Nepleslia. Taisha out."
Arild sat back in his chair and almost closed his eyes. It would be so tempting to simply fall asleep and leave the organisation of the colonists to someone else. He jerked himself back to reality. He had a job to do. He took his formal boots out and began to polish them. If there was one thing he hated it was disorder and uncleanness.
