Chapter 171: Listening Post

The gentle hum of the Olympus' engine system greeted Caden, Solan, and Solari as they entered the vessel. The interior lighting gave the cabin a bluish hue, illuminating the intricate designs and interfaces of the state-of-the-art spaceship.

As they boarded, the crew promptly stood at attention, nodding in respect. "All set, Sentinel?" the lead engineer, Taran, asked.

Caden nodded, "Begin pre-flight checks. We don't have much time."

Solan, with a focused look on his face, walked over to the weapons console, adjusting the settings and making sure everything was online and responsive. "Weapons systems are coming online now, Father," he reported with a hint of seriousness in his voice, his fingers dancing over the controls.

Solari, meanwhile, headed to the navigation panel. "Inputting the coordinates from High General Drexus now," he said, as the holographic star map illuminated before him, pinpointing their destination.
