OOC: This is going to be a tag for everyone so everyone is aware of what is going on. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Ciaran walked out of the ready room and walked to the captain’s chair. This will be his first action as being the Acting Captain of the Ark Angel. He nodded to his department heads which were already aware of what was going on and he sat down. He hit the ship-wide comm on his seat and proceeded to say, “Attention Ark Angel crew. This is Acting Captain Donoghuei. I regret to inform everyone Commodore Drudoc had to step down for personal business. I am aware she had been in command of the Ark Angel for a long number of years. We thank her for her service but we will continue with leading the Ark Angel forward and handling the ship in the same manner. We have a good crew. At this time, we will be heading back to Starbase 243 and the previous orders which we had received have been put on hold for the time being. If anyone has any concerns, feel free to reach out to your department head or to myself. Donoghuei out.” Ciaran then looked over at everyone on the bridge and said to the ensign at the navigation seat, “NE Rashford, please plot course to Starbase 243, warp 5.” Ciaran knew there was no hurry right this moment to get back to the starbase in a timely manner. This slower speed would allow the crew to take in the information which was just received and hopefully give everyone some time to let it sink in. Ciaran knew he was going to have difficulties with this as he was just getting use to being the executive officer on the Ark Angel, much less being ready to be dropped into the captions position.
