"Yes Kyra, I am the leader of this ship and many others too, I am what the Solarics call a "Supreme Commander", there is only eight of us in the whole of the Empire, and we protect it and other people like your own when need be"
They enter the lift and Brian selects the Command level, the lift shoots upward but those inside feel as if it is not moving at all
"When we reach where we are going you must stay near me, as it is a very important place and the people there have lots of things to do"
After a few seconds the doors open again and Kyra can see onto the bridge, the room is semicircular and about 50m across, there are huge viewscreens that take up 3 of the walls and curve upward like a dome onto the ceiling, these show the view outside the ship as if they were windows, even though the Nicodemus bridge is really in the very center of the ship, there are many people at work here at complicated control desks and rushing about between them, on the left of the ship there can be seen the GSR fleet, and also the Solaric Escorts
