Shina assumed control of the shuttle, she wondered if Saki was being just a bit too careful, but she kept such thoughts to herself. After all Saki was responsible for the team. So she was obviously wanting to err on the side of caution. This initial contact was going well, no need to spoil things.
She brought the shuttle down and chose to land so that the side door was facing the shuttle. That way if things got hostile there was less opportunity for other Thaurgons to shoot into it. The shuttle touched down lightly, Shina left the engines powered but in a standby state so that their emissions were minimal.
She noted that the Thaurgon craft started lowering its ramp, as the ramp was lowering she noted two Thaurgons descending. She also noted that a number of Thaurgons were gathering about 50 meters to the front and rear of the shuttle.
"Heisho, we have a couple of the aliens exiting Gildozee's craft and there are two groups forming in front and behind us." she said turning towards Saki.
