-Welcome to Serenity's bridge-

-Aloft in front of you is an entire other world-

-Now how neat is that!-

-The supplemental holograms state the world's name is "Stroj", and give a general rundown of the local stellar environment. Nothing particularly useful, though the sharp-eyed do note there's an entry about how Ark Fortune's last known position was in orbit of this world-

-Well, Stroj is depressingly normal. There doesn't seem to be anything particularly cool or unique or notable about this world from stellar scans. It's lush, green, Earth-like, well-suited to support life, has ample liquid water, and initial scans suggest significant untapped resource deposits... the perfect colonial candidate.-

-The perfect colonial candidate.-

-Longram, roll Common Sense.-

Quartz: Hm, that does seem pretty nice... Think they settled down and never called back?

... Wait, do we know whether or not someone was already inhabiting this planet?

-Well, Longram, this planet seems like it would be a pretty nice one to settle down on-

-So where the heck is the Ark?-

-Quartz, there's nothing in Stroj's bio that states that. So far as you know there might already be people living here, like on Idacra-

Quartz: Can this scanner check for signs of civilisation? Lights on the dark side of the planet, perhaps? Broadcasts of any kind?

Longram: "...this doesn't feel right. If this planet look peaceful, why didn't these guys contact Centerpoint? And for that matter, where's the ark?"

-Well, Quartz-

-A holographic button appears in the air-

-That says "Scan For Signs Of Civilization"-

-Your monkeybrain-part of your brain tells you to push it-

-Serenity begins scanning for signs of civilization-

-There's, like, a circle that's filling up and a percent counter and everything-

-This might take a couple of seconds-

-After a few seconds the scan completes-

-It would appear that there was a civilization on this world. In the past tense; while the vast majority of it remains, it seems mostly inactive. There's not much going on down there.-

-There are things in space, however. A couple of space stations in orbit around the planet at various different points, though they seem defunct and inactive-

-...Except for the one nearest you, about four hundred kilometres out-

-That is powering on as you read this-

-Well, Lovisia-

-Serenity has energy shields and "high maneuverability"-

-Nothing else is listed. There are no weapons, and there are no other defensive systems onboard-

-It is at that moment a klaxon begins blaring, as the space station that just powered online is apparently delivering a massive amount of power to some sort of unidentifiable gun-

-And orienting itself to face Serenity-

-There is-

-It's called "running like hell", and judging by the sound of the ship and the fact the planet is beginning to rapidly approach you can tell Serenity is doing exactly that-
