Galactic Horizon HQ
Meeting Room 3
The neat and generally comfortable room had been cleared of the usual large board table and office chairs and instead was setup to accommodate a small group with less impressive but still nice chairs setup viewing a large wall mounted display. Standing off to the side of this display and slowly scanning the room and the occupants as they arrived, was a Zen Armaments combat robot which had been repainted the typical black and gold of Galactic Horizon.
On the display, ariel footage of a large industrial facility surrounded by snow and icy mountains plays silently with the GH logo covering the centre, the footage itself was looping and clearly waiting for the briefing to begin properly before anyone would get to see the juicy info. The imposing robot offered no greetings or acknowledgement as people entered the room, continuing to simply inspect them each and monitor the room. Given this was one of GH's more impressive rooms at the new HQ, it was almost a perfectly timed distraction as the far wall shimmered revealing a pristine view of the large landing facility outside the main compound as the company's flagship "The Abyssal Nomad" descended through the atmosphere to make port.
As the last member stepped through the doorway, the large droid seemed to become more animated, the head rotating towards the door followed by its legs disengaging their stationary lock with a soft clunking noise. The robot moved towards the door with a series of loud thuds of large metal feet on the solid floor before extending a clawed hand to close the meeting room, automatically activating the privacy filters. The window-wall once again shimmered back to its solid opaque form as the crew had begun unloading the large ship, removing the scene from view and preventing anyone outside the room from listening in. Slowly stomping its way back to the front, the droid took up its place beside the screen once more and extended a claw holding a small projector.
As the small device activated the holographic figure of Kryss Black was brought to life with her usual fierce grin.
"Hello all, apologies for not being there in person for this briefing as I know some of you probably would have preferred to meet face to face after our discussions. But I'd like to thank you for showing up, as you all know we don't have the spare personnel to complete this expedition right now, which is where you come in. Our prototype mining base The Plant, has gone dark on Jui'varen V. Over 2000 staff living and working onsite and we haven't heard from a single one of them, none of the shuttles that typically make supply runs have left the site either. We're sending you in to find out what happened and secure the facility, our people are your primary objective and beyond that we need to ensure the equipment is shut down to avoid any critical failures or meltdowns."
Kryss seemed to turn away as though someone else was speaking to her, making some brief hand gestures and shaking her head before turning back to the group in the room.
"Sorry about that, currently dealing with a liberation campaign and all that, but back to your task at hand. The droid here is KB-12 who will be accompanying you into the base as my representative, it can keep track of the systems and status once close enough to The Plant and run triage on which objectives should be handled at a time while reporting directly to me. A shuttle will be taking you all over there shortly, for now please direct any questions my way you have about this and go over the footage and photos provided to study the layout of The Plant. The crew living quarters have all been marked as primary targets, central controls for the processing plant are also marked, beyond that other points of concern include the maintenance bay and landing facility to find out if any of the equipment is still operatable."
The hologram of Kryss paused for a minute before continuing with her final instructions.
"Oh and one last thing before questions, you'll be given access to some of our spare armoury equipment before the drop though we can't spare much, so anyone who has a personal kit they prefer is encouraged to bring it. We don't expect a full hostile force in there as there was no sign of hostile takeover before or after it went dark, always pays to be prepared though."
