Emergence: Return of Magic book 1
“Yet, he worried, what if other ships were already on route, it wouldn’t be the first time command hadn’t given him all the plans, or details. His job was to clean the planet of vermin, the extraction ships could already be on the way, to strip this place down. The last report he’d sent indicated there were no problems, and that the vermin was dying out.
The question was, would they be cautious and scan for a problem, or race up to the planet, and then scan. He had to admit, the latter was mo...st likely, it was what he would have done. His race wasn’t known for patience, or caution. Now he knew better of course, he would be more guarded in the future now that this strange energy had been discovered. Still, he wasn’t sure where they were, and right now they were just… wandering around looking for hidden installations.
They’d come across a few very small human settlements on the way here, as he avoided the major populations that still lived around the edges of the cities. Humans were weak, but he only had a little over two hundred crew left. Some of the small settlements they had bypassed, and in others they had slaughtered the whole town. Really, it had depended on his mood, which was quickly worsening with each day he spent on this backwards primitive planet. He felt… on edge, like he was being watched. But he didn’t see or hear any humans nearby, or anything else for that matter, and his crewmates hadn’t reported feeling the same. But… he had the feeling something was out there. He just didn’t know what.MoreLess
