Bot suggests to head back to head command to check the mission listings. You decide you might as well keep busy while the other TAMS work on taking care of the Kkryonitte contamination.
As you make your way to HC, it seems that the entire station is busy: TAMS getting non-TAMS to safe areas, medical crews going to and fro, decontamination units, etc.
"When do you think they'll finish TNMS1?" Stojanow asks suddenly. You jump a bit, you hadn't even realized he was following you.
"I don't know," you reply. "I'll have to go check on the Military Research Wing later and ask how the work is going."
"Or you could have Lia go check and then relay the information you you." You simply shrug in reply as you enter Head Command.
The room it actually very big. It's full of computers, screens, monitors; and there are even non-TAMS working in it. Chyrannians, Draylinnes, humans, and so on. It's better to have so many helping out, especially since there's only 25 actual TAMS on such a large station. Such a small number makes getting things done rather difficult.
Thankfully, the Chyrannian military base was more than happy to send out some workers. The human colony sent out a few workers as well, which were soon followed by the Draylinnes.
The Chyrannians are somewhat insect-like, with their skin made of a rather hard shell. Most of them have yellow eyes and two pairs of insect-like wings on their back. They also have two pairs of thin arms, and have only two fingers. Their legs follow the thin pattern, but there's only one pair of legs. There's a small patch of fur on their chest, and they have strange rabbit-like ears atop their head. The Chyrannians are useful here on the station because they're able to easily fly up to high places, which is why a lot of them work in the repair area.
The Draylinnes are highly tolerant creatures. They're mostly humanoid, except with pale grey skin, solid white eyes, and the lack of a nose. They're able to withstand incredibly hot and cold temperatures, as well as not really needing much food, water, or even air. Most Draylinnes come from incredibly high altitudes, most humans are incapable of living in Draylinne areas.
The Head Command is somewhat two floors, with the second floor being a large ring around the outside and in the center of HC. Most of the weapons and overall system monitoring takes place up there. There are ramps along the walls, allowing people to go up and down the second floor, as well as bridges to connect the outer ring to the inner circle. Of course, there are rails set up around everything for safety reasons. But really, the second floor is a stunning work of suspension. The center circle is held up only by a few thin but powerful wires. Despite that, the center area is perfectly safe and doesn't even move. The bridges going out to the outer ring are held up only by the rings themselves, meaning they don't actually have any supports. It's frightening but interesting at the same time.
The lower floor, the one you work on, is a lot less spacious. It's a large mess of wires and computers, most of which you didn't manage to sort out before Xeron decided to put the station in full operation. No one seems to mind though, so you guess it's okay. You work in the center area, the space below the center "circle" of the second floor. Here, there's a large circular setup, which basically serves as the actual head of command. Here you can send out various orders, keep tabs on all TAMS, and manage all the inner (and outer) workings of the Station.
You're standing next to the massive screen right now, looking through the missions listings:
