Lenneord, having just recovered from a nasty fall in his own bunk thanks to the hectic commotion, made his way towards the bridge to ascertain exactly what had been going on whilst he'd been napping. In the long walk it was certain quite a bit of damage was done to the ship, and though his concern grew, he wouldn't let it show. Quite unbecoming of one in his stature after all. A nod here, a smile there, all for the good of crew morale of course. Oh the troubles Lenneord had to endure for the good of his people.<br/><br/>Finally, the doors hissed open to allow Lenneord entry onto the bridge, and the site that greeted him was most disheartening. Gore littered many of the consoles, half of which were damaged. He was about to say something in regards to how many had been harmed or killed, but Captain Bodaway's booming voice drowned out anything he could have started. Deciding to remain silent and out of his line of site, Lenneord simply listened to the details as those around cleaned and did their jobs. In doing so, he learned quite a bit about what happened, where they were, and where they were going. It was the latter that had interested him most though.<br/><br/>An unexplored planet? Such a discovery warranted inspection, and Lenneord was not one to skimp no an inspection. Listening in more intently, he learned of the plans and smiled. It would be an easy matter to put himself in the science team to planet-side. He pretty much had free reign on that wing of the ship. Putting himself as head of the science team was an easy matter. The crew bowed to the will of a noble, so long as it stayed within the confines of their captains orders anyway. A fact Lenneord was fine with of course. No need to have these poor men tugged at between two leaders. He had no want to get involved with military actions anyway.<br/><br/>The scans had only just begun when the discoveries from the probe found something incredible. A downed ship with a couple survivors were planet-side. Judging from the impact crater however, and it's age, he suspected they had been there quite a while. "You there," He called to XO of the ship, his name unfortunately forgotten. In fact the poor XO was entirely mistaken for a common soldier. "Tell the captain that there is a ship planet-side with two survivors. Hard to see thanks to foliage, so it was likely there for quite some time, maybe two years at least." He stated, and kept describing minor details of those in question. The XO was, visibly, irritated with him, but no other move was taken. A quick hand off to one of the grunts would save the man the trouble.<br/><br/>With the captain pushing the time for departure up, Lenneord's excitement only grew. The equipment was all set, and the squad of marines to escort them was loaded on. Their descent began, and without any trouble it broke atmosphere and landed without so much trouble. Other curiosity's aside for now, he knew what the captain wanted done. He didn't much agree, and intended to find out who these survivors were exactly before anything else was done. While fairly certain it wasn't the same group that attacked them, he wasn't so stupid as to assume they were not hostile, and had no qualms about sending the marines in first.<br/><br/>The bay doors opened on the transport and the world of Tyros opened herself to them. The air was fresh and bright, the sun still high into the sky at this time of the rotation cycle. Waves lapped at the shores near the ship, but none of that was on the mind of our Lenneord. His face was set forward, and urged the company of marines forward so they could meet with these commoners, as he believed them to be. However, walking through this world towards the downed remains of the ship proved difficult, and then impossible. It was as if the terrain itself was eating at their soles, and soon enough the lot of them had their limbs stuck in the muck one way or another. Cursing lightly to himself, Lenneord did his best to get out, but it was too thick. The marines were having more trouble with their bulky suits, but they also weren't sinking as fast.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">Not on the surface for 5 minutes, and something goes wrong. you're a real treat to your empire Lenny.</span>
