“It really is something ... that people disapprove even of our doing things that are patently good. Wouldn't it be possible for us just to banish these people from our lives, and escape their carping and jeering once and for all? Couldn't we live without them? Couldn't we earn our living and manage our affairs without help from them? Come on, let's wake up, and claim back our freedom, and the honour and dignity that they have usurped from us for so long. Do you think that if we really put our minds to it, we would be lacking the courage to defend ourselves, the strength to fend for ourselves, or the talents to earn our own living? Let's take our courage into our hands and do it, and then we can leave it up to them to mend their ways as much as they can: we shan't really care what the outcome is, just as long as we are no longer subjugated to them.”
It had been a week since they had set out from the docking bay hovering over New Elysia. They had taken their time in picking a star cluster that seemed good to explore, eventually they decided upon a nearby star cluster that seems to have been relatively unexplored. Upon coming out of hyperspeed they would stop at the edge of the nearby Star Cluster named Eudokia. On deck at the moment was the Captain; Ambriel Cinna in the captains chair, the first mate Charlampos Ambrosia standing near the captains chair, Mihral Lekos on scanners, with Cintanisa Frasna on the operations console.
As they arrived at the edge of said star system, Ambriel was slouched lightly, with her arm propped up on the right arm of the captains chair with her fist firmly against her cheek in an almost bored fashion, however she wasted no time in looking towards Mihral. "Semeai Lekos, I want you to do a long range scan and tell me what planets are here in the system. Semeai Cintanisa; I want you to continue our course, however set us more on cruise so that we won't be surprised by anything that comes our way. Duplicari Ambrosia, I want you to prepare the other three members of our crew, and bring them up here so we can decide which planet we are going to." She looked up at the large woman next to her.
Char gave the Elysian Salute and turned heading out of the bridge and down into the bowels of the ship to gather up the civilian, the doctor, and the Soldier. As she approached each location she checked on each of them to ensure they were doing what they were supposed to be doing before she actually made herself known.
