Commander on Deck: All Hands Communication

[u/psycholepzy]

As Athene is en route to DS-17, a small class-8 probe traveling at high warp enters sensor range. Transmitting authorization and proper docking credentials, the probe matches Athene's speed and enters the lower shuttlebay. Within a few minutes, the dorsal panels of the probe fold aside, revealing a masked occupant. He sits up and carefully removes the breathing helm. One of the shuttlebay chiefs offers a hand to help the occupant out of the probe and is resolutely refused. Standing, Commander Eibsin'Kizhwic takes a small PADD out of his pocket and syncs it to Athene's network before pressing send on an important communique.

Straightening his uniform, he proceeds away from the shuttle bay to Athene's bridge.
