#interdimensional ship

Piloting a spacecraft could be very interesting at times, but right, now, for Obby, things were normal, routine, and boring. Nyx was doing all the work during the middle of the transit between Popstar and Mechanos. He wasn’t even delivering anything this trip, just stopping by for the best maintenance he could get for cheap and maybe a few parts since he had a little extra cash on hand.

Things were not quite as boring when he heard the loud ding that announced that PH03-NYX had detected an object nearby.

“Nyx, what’s out there?” Obby asked aloud, knowing full well the ship’s artificial intellce could hear him.

“An unidentified vessel is within scanner range.” Nyx’s somewhat convincing computer-generated voice rang out from the console in front of the pilot.

“Anything you can tell me about it?” Obby opened up a tab on the console displaying a map of Skyrebrand’s surroundings. Sure enough, a white dot labelled with the halcandran question mark was within the scanner’s area.

“I can’t tell much from this distance,” Nyx replied, “But it appears to run on the same type of engines as Skyrebrand.”

“Weird. This thing runs on ancient halcandran tech...” He thought about all his potential courses of action for a moment. “Bring us in closer, I’d like to get a better look at it.”
