Stay here or take the tour?
Take a tour on the Perpetual Bliss
"You know, I do think we can do with lunch and a little tour on the way", you say taking charge. "Lead the way, your highness."
Honestly you never thought Valiant capable of excitement, but upon hearing your choice he started looking like a cat that ate the canary. "Oh Jolly good, its been so long since I've given people a closer look on my pride and joy. Come along and let me show this wondrous vessel, my personal flag ship, The Perpetual Bliss", he declared as he took point and headed out Through the auto door only to turn back and look back at you with a sheepish smile.
"Oh my apologies, I got so excited I got ahead of my self", he said in an embarrassed tone. "Allow me to begin by introducing you two properly to Sickbay, where all your medical needs and care are taken care of on, under the supervision of the greatest medical practitioners the known and unknown galaxies have ever seen."
"Seizing the next opportunity to showboat again, your highness", said a calm, collected, yet slightly annoid voice, fascitiasly.
"Speak of the devil and she will appear", Valiant responded rather jovially, seem in to take the newcomers remark in stride. "May I introduce Dr. Arshay Snider, my chief medical officer."
Today is just full of surprises, between superpowers, dream quests, and now not only do you meet a half-Elvin Half-Orc, now you meet a an Elvin with light brown skin, denoting herself to be a member of the darker Elvin kin. Said to be a radical elvin sub-group that it to be mortal enemies with everyone else, especially thier purer kin.
"Surprised? Get used to it, stay here long enough and you'll get use to many diverse races in the same space and twice as many half-breeds. Now if you excuse me I have blood samples to test and microbes to analyze", she said rather offhandedly, moving across the room to some tables with all kinds of equipment you couldn't make heads or tails of.
"Granted, her bedside manner is much to be desired, but there is no one else on this ship or anywhere in any universe whose hands I would place my life in than hers" continued Valiant smoothly, as if he wasn't bothered by her rude behavior and apologized for your behalf. You starting to get the idea that most of his crew are just as free spirited as as the Security woman and the doctor, which he doesn't admonish them for in the slightest, just smoothly act diplomatic for the benefit of guest such as yourself and Rin. You find yourself getting more interested at how much freedom does the crew have that this prince gives them.
"She's without question the best in making her patients more comfortable and well rested", Morah added with a suggestive wink. "She can turn pain into pleasure and vice verce, so she get give you a night to remember, or forget, however bad you want it, and if she isnt your type there are plenty of nurses on hand to keep you company."
"Yes we pride ourselves of full medical coverage and comfort. Satisfaction guaranteed, or your money back", Vali laughed as if telling a joke, which you could tell he was. It amazed you as much as disturbed you at how natural it was to put you at ease just by talking. You go so far to say if one were to look Prince Charming in the dictionary, you'd find a picture of him in next to it.
"In any case your all ready to move and there's plenty to see before we reach our destination and share a fine meal", he continued with a bit of eagerness.
You and Rin followed him out with Morah coming at you flank. As you walked across the halls, you realized the doctor wasn't kidding about meeting different people, as you've seen more species and seeming half-breeds in this single hall then all the bars you've visited. Some greeted Vali formally with a slight bow or a salute, while others greeted him like an old friend, and the Prince took it all with grace in his stride. It's rather unusual, the system seems to be a mixed blend of disciple, rank and file of military and more free minded sorts like Elise's crew.
As you were lead to a nitro lift, you were shown to the unique computer intertouchscreen screen that was able to project 3d schematics of the ship and even tracked locations of personnel. Rin was quite taken in, calling this ship a highly functioning work of art. Valiant was quiet pleased hearing that, saying that was what he had in mind commissioning the spacecraft. Most of the of the words Vali and Rin exchanged from there flew over your head, but you got the gist that this ship was built to be pleasure cruise as much as a functioning battle/cargo ship. This was making you more uncomfortable, not only for the fact that the crew and the ship appeal to you but for how Rin was easily getting so comfortable talking to Valiant after being so frightened of him not long ago. Morah put a hand on your shoulder and gave a friendly relaxed smile, telling to not worry and it will be alright. You take a breath and before you know your on the Paradise Deck 1, one of three especially made decks on this ship where anyone can have a good time, holo suites, arcades, shops, mess halls, and even clubs for all walks of life.
Your led to one of the more common mess halls, where as you enter you can recognized crewman and other guest in festive celebration which was taken up a notch when you entered. The Crew man loudly cheered Valiants name while he just humbly waved, and ordered them to carry on having fun. As you looked you noticed some of the people have the rags of slaves, yet any brands seems to have been expunged and getting more comfortable being treated like equals. You finally sit at a table and order some food and a strong drink. It didn't take long for all your orders to arrive, guess the prince takes priority.
"So now that we have fed our bellies and throats with food and drink, i'm sure your more than ready to have your many questions answered. Shall I go on with the explanations and take it from there?" Valiant asked, seemingly eager to go on.
"Bring it", you reply feeling ready for anything he had to say.
What does he tell you?
