"From this hour I ordain myself loos’d of limits and imaginary lines" (Part 1 - Briefing)

[cityship]

A large group of crew members was gathered. In fact, given the mission briefing provided, it was curious that there'd be such a large number for a diplomatic mission.

Non-sentient life: Extensive flora and fauna.
Semi-Sentient Life: Yes.

It was very little to work with, so the crew gathered there possibly had a lot of questions.

Bingo. The memory of five-year-old Lash got a little laugh out of him, though. "You know, you were a pretty cute kid."

"But still pretty lethal despite my age," she argued, not too comfortable at the idea of being called cute. Certainly not something like Hawke or Sturm would have called her. "The ship is pretty different than from what I got to live through, but now I have an entire book filled with all sorts of memories I forgot as I grew older!" She was a goddamn genius. "I'm almost thankful for the fact I nearly died, but I had a feeling it would get fixed up. That tends to happen around here."

"Ah, like Ronnae's sketchbook? I'm glad you got to make good use of your time, then."

He blinked. "So... what exactly did you get to live through?"

[thewunderkind]

"Well this is probably a story for another day considering we're going to probably get extra briefing soon but, let's just say I've been raised all my life as a soldier for Black Hole back home on Wars World. I rose up to become a Commanding Officers before deserting my country and joining the other side after certain secrets were discovered about our new leader. Is that enough information for now?" She was grinning proudly about it too.

And Lash was... how old, now?

"Well, now I'm curious. I'll have to ask you about it some time... see if your world is more or less depressing than mine."

In the meantime, though... briefing!

[thewunderkind]

If you would have asked her, she would have said nineteen.

"Tee hee, Probably yours. Mine was pretty fun." Then again, Lash had a very weird of what constituted as fun.

To the briefing!
