Sllyro tilted their head. “Factions? What are factions?”

Avik continued to observe the group as their hosts cooperated with her crew. However, the fact she sensed no thoughts or emotions still lingered on her mind. So theories could explain it, but she decided it wasn’t the time to dwell on it. Caution was the better course of action. At this point, she wished she had dubbed in more depth over actual science than medicine.

OOC: Editing and pasting Nox back in.
IC:
“Factions by our definition are a small organized dissenting group within a larger one, especially in politics. Perhaps a group of people who would not welcome non native people?” She did her best to keep her language simple since it seemed they had trouble understanding. She didn’t mind though. Words had power and meaning.

Sllyro shook their head in confusion. “We do not have any groups that dissent from the whole. Everyone is in agreement as is intended by the Great Cycle. We are all cautious of non-native people but none of else will refuse to welcome you, unless given cause.”

Still working on her little problem, Abrams was still aware of her surrounding and remained in protection mode. And not for the first time since they beamed down did she wish Vora was here so they could make use of that magnificent memory of hers. She knew that if they could ask the exact right question that they might unravel a whole bunch of the mystery, but which question was the right one? How did she knew if she was on the right track? She drew closer to Marsh and spoke quietly. “They don’t seeike we do. So if we adjust our idea of what sight is and include a much broader spectrum of the EM spectrum, what does that tell us about how they operate and what they might not even realize they know?”

Abrams, COS

Marsh spun the dial back and forth. At this point with this level of power he just started looking in windows. Starting aft moving towards engineering.

Marsh

OOC: What are you looking for specifically?

The Europa’s hull looked intact but there were no running lights or visible lights from any of the windows that could be seen.

GM Dread

OOC: Well, hand beacons, tricorder, computer screens would provide visible light even if the ship was unpowered (so none of that) which means the ship is pitch black through the windows. Combustion thrust, from the engines to maintain orbit… that would be a sign of life. EVA’s might occur. A ship would start getting cold fast… looking for energy dissipation through the hull. I can start with that.

She smiled at Sllyro. “Well, that is good to know. It puts my mind at ease a little given how worrisome our ship’s current condition is. I am sure it is some kind of mechanical failure and we appreciate both you bringing it to us so quickly and also your assistance as we try to figure out what happened and help our ship in any way we can.” She hoped answers would be forthcoming soon.

For now, she decided to keep with the mission as Abrams and Marsh worked on the Europa issue. “Tell me of this Great Cycle, Sllyro. It sounds fascinating.”
