Kaede
TheAbyssentered the asteroid belt almost a day early, thanks to ZYU and EYN working together to speed the vessel. While the ship wouldn’t be able to run at such high speeds for a long time, Kaede was pleased to be able to get in and out sooner than originally planned. The quicker he could get Selena to safety, the better. He wouldn’t feel safe until they crossed the boundary into their galaxy.
First, he needed to find the base’s exact location in this asteroid field.
“VYA, could you please send out our survey drones?” He turned to the crimson Oetsae projection. “We need to find evidence of mental signatures hidden within an asteroid.”
“On it.”
“REI, could you search for any lifeforms?”
“I can’t sense anything,” she replied, confused.“Other than a blank, void-like spot in front of us.”
“Send some drones over to that location, too.”
“Will do.”
“While that’s happening, let’s discuss a plan to break into this asteroid base,” Kaede announced, excited to finally be able to plan Selena’s rescue mission. “Anyone have any ideas?”
