I'm pretty sure something sketchy is going on here. The captain spends all their time up in their cabin; I've never even //seen// them, not even at meals or anything. Just those mech frames, scuttling around like ... idk, conscientious spiders or something like that. They deliver the food, clean the rooms, maintain the engines, change the lights - I've literally never seen a ship with this many frames before. Like they just fired all the crew and replaced them with robots.
Maybe there //is// no captain. Maybe we're just on autopilot. Or this whole thing is operated remotely by some Uthonian cartel and we've just hitched a ride on a ship full of illegal lasers.
Holy Light, I wish we'd insisted on meeting the captain face to face before we agreed to this. But no, we just //had// to go for the cheap flight, huh. Ugh.

''>>Sol III''
>''Sol III'' (local designation "''Earth''") is a Zeiber-class planet in the Sol system, notable for supporting sentient life forms, [[humans->Humans]]. Access is strictly controlled under [[Council of Allied Worlds]] of Allied Worlds Reg. 0247, as its sentients are currently pre-space-era. Along with humans, Sol III supports an extremely varied range of other organisms, including several hundred pokémon species, although it is currently in the grip of a mass extinction induced by its current custodians.
>Its primary export is (link-goto: "cats", ">Cats"), which are illegally exported in large numbers by smugglers for the galactic pet market. It is also a favoured hideout for space criminals, owing to its distance from Council space and the difficulty of pursuit on primitive worlds.

Currently facing extreme social and climatic disorder as the result of unchecked fossil fuel usage and corporate profiteering, it is difficult to ascertain when, if ever, they will be able to devote enough attention to their space programmes to join the galactic community.
>The [[Council of Allied Worlds]] rejected a potential humanitarian intervention on SD 4065.137, on the basis that the situation was not yet dire enough. Xeno rights groups continue to lobby for the right to access Sol III to administer aid; a Council review of the situation is scheduled for 4073.4.4.

''>>Council of Allied Worlds''
>The ''Council of Allied Worlds'', commonly known as the ''Council'', is a nonpartisan intergovernmental organisation with the aim of maintaining intragalactic peace and security, developing friendly relations among spacefaring races, and promoting intragalactic development. Originally founded in SD2077.7.9 by the deoxys, lhrehr and kyurem, membership is open to all spacefaring races, conditional on their commitment to adherence to certain humanitarian standards. There are currently 543 member species to the Council (545 if the symbionts xaleet|crovya|sh'a are counted separately), and 189 known races who have declined to join.
>Space controlled by Council members is known as ''Council space'', and subject to Council law. The Council is empowered to respond to breaches in regulation with strongly-worded letters, sanctions, and, if necessary, force, enacted by Council rangers.
