Jorus Merrill
is mek bote
The Laureate-class science vessel Gossamer, registered to the overarching government of the Kathol territories, exited hyperspace over Sekalus. Its ongoing mission was to locate the unknown fleet and subsequent battlecruiser which had passed close by the Kathol Outback. The Gossamer, its shuttles, and its probes had searched dozens of star systems along the sensor contacts' probable vector through Wild Space. So far they'd had no luck at all.
Perhaps that was about to change.
Still uncomfortable in the shiny new uniform he'd temporarily donned, Jorus scratched at the collar and sat up a little straighter in his chair. The Gossamer's crew were largely scientists and non-combat military personnel. Taking avoidable risks with their lives wasn't on his agenda, but the search was an unavoidable risk itself. They'd come to treat him as any other commanding officer, whether or not he looked this young. A few knew who he really was; most just figured he was some other Merrill. These weren't people he'd bled with, or led for decades. This moment, right here, meant a lot for their future.
"Sensors: Initiate scanning protocols. Operations: launch SIARC probes. Comms: contact the government of Sekalus and indicate we're searching for a fleet that's been reported in the area. Don't identify me by name, just identify the Gossamer."
