"What am I looking at?" said Gir, eying the spherical object in front of him, "is that a miniature thrustship? But it doesn't quite look like Yevathan make..."
It was an orb over twenty meters in diameter. The admiral had seen many starship designs during his years out in space, some of them were more alien and unorthodox than others, such as the converted ore haulers of the Stenness Node. How and why anyone would bother to kill a gigantic wasp, strap engines to it, and then fly it around the galaxy would probably be beyond the man's comprehension no matter how long he lived. But other starships, while unconventional, seemed to have a certain logic to them that escaped the man's thought process. He was almost certain that this was one of those cases.
"It's a scoutship," informed the mon calamari engineer, "made by Arakyd many years ago. A SkyBlind Recon ship to be exact. It took a little bit of work to find this example, and I'm sure it's not entirely operational..."
"Why is it a sphere? And what does it have to do with the Eidolon Project?"
