The shuttle from the USS Ayarim had been given clearance to land on the Leviathan ‘s flight deck on deck 13.

From his viewport on the shuttle, the ship looked larger than Shock had expected. He had studied the schematics in detail while in transit. Yet, he was unprepared for the sheer size of it. Perhaps it was because of the optical illusion due no atmosphere in space, or perhaps, his mind could not yet unconsciously comprehend it. In any case, the view quickly disappeared, as the shuttle landed on deck.

After the shuttle engine hummed down, Shock stepped out, wearing his crisp new uniform with the captain’s pips adorning his collar.
