Marriage Planet

Stacy's voice came over the comm, blaring across the entire ship.

||Attention, Attention. All personnel please report to the Observation Deck. Attention, Attention. All personnel please report to the Observation Deck. Attention, Attention, all personnel...||

The mouth in the main sculpture on Obs Deck opened, revealing a screen with the image of a mottled blue and purple planet, rotating slowly.

Planet Designation: Gondepetil
Status: Terrestrial, H-class.
Mass slightly larger than most Earths.
Non-sentient life: Extensive flora and fauna.
Semi-Sentient Life: Yes.
Sentient Life: Yes.
Water: 88% of the planet's surface.

Climate: Similar to Earth's Mediterranean climate. Warm but hospitable.  [Click here for cultural equivalents for non-Earth cultures.]
Landscape:
Short trees and scrubs. Most mountains are plateaus, terrain is hilly and rocky on 65% of the land surface.
Air: Normoxic concentration: 25% oxygen, 65% nitrogen, 5% xenon, 5% trace gases, such as hydrogen, neon, krypton, and argon.

Air Pressure: 17.02 pounds per square inch. Heavier than ship's air pressure, but breathable.
Sky: Blue/purple with silver clouds.
Sun: A class G2V, yellow star. The planet is unusually close to its sun, but its ozone layer is fully capable of filtering out harmful radiation.

Mission: Spiritual elders of the local inhabitants are in possession of an artifact of great importance to the war against the Ohm. The crew will participate in the inhabitants' rituals of judgment and joining to enter the region known as the Sacred Mount, where the artifact is being stored. The crew is to negotiate with the spiritual elders to acquire this artifact. The crew is expected to comply with any of their demands in order to successfully complete negotiations.


Time for another mission, then.

Well, it was always good to see the Meister attending her work seriously. Not just because Reinforce wanted to see her doing so, but because she believed Hayate needed such for herself as well. Even if the proof was in having to rush along at the last minute.

After they'd had a minute to review and digest the information on the screen, Rein turned to Hayate. "What do you think?"

She was honestly curious, but maybe, just maybe, she was testing her a little. She did want to see how far Hayate had come as an officer, after all. Though there was not an awful lot to work with, here.

"T' be honest, I wish there was more info here on jus' what th' artifact is or does. Important how, ya know?"

Reinforce nodded. "It would certainly be easier to motivate the crew if we knew how it would help us." As usual they were just being left to hope that the ship's intentions and strategy would serve them well...

"Did you receive diplomatic training with the TSAB?" She had granted Hayate strong magic, she knew that much, but what other skills had the girl developed since they'd parted...?

"I've got some, an' a lot experience workin' with bureaucracy, but I wonder what we've really got that we can barter with them."
