Chapter Three (C): Jake & Thorchan

[Akirapryde]

As Jake and Thorchan continued their search, they found themselves walking back in to the lounge. The lounge was filled with a number of crew members. It wasn’t hard to see the two units represented aboard the ship. There were the crew of the dropship its self in their Combine naval uniforms. Then there were the pilots of the air wing in their own Imperial Palace Guard uniform. The vast majority of the people within the lounge paused what they were doing just to take noticed of the pair walking in to the lounge. Within seconds everyone went back to what they were doing.

To Jake and Thorchan’s surprise, on the far side of the lounge was a set of large windows. Despite the windows. Jake couldn’t help but notice the group of crew members sitting at a table listening keenly to a story being told by that Clan Nova Cat pilot. As the pair moved closer to the window, Jake could hear what could only be a war story in the mists of being told. The story was near the beginning and seemed to be a war story from one of the most famous battles of Inner Sphere history. It was a story regarding the Battle of Tukayyid.
