Somnambulance [Retconned]

[Reeves]

No more than twenty minutes after that message was put out, a trio of ships passed overhead, an Eagle leading the formation and two Hawks which quickly spread out and seemed to patrol the immediate area as if watching for any incoming ships that weren't part of this entourage. It was fairly obvious who they were, especially as the Eagle seemed to act on prior information and landed not far from the Lich's current location. The hooded serpent insignias made it even more telling who this was if it wasn't obvious already, and the ship's pilot had opened up the cargo bay to allow the person he was here for to gain entry. This was all meant to be a quick in and out, hence the interceptors that were prepared to run interference if needed.

The exact moment she climbed in through the steps leading up into the fighter's bowels typically meant for storage, the bay door closed and Damien glanced back in her direction. "I'm taking you to our hideout here for now, that Lich is going to attract a ton of heat, so we'll let it linger here and throw them off before we try to move you." It seemed like a sound enough strategy, there was no sense rushing her off the Planet if they'd only be rushing her into LPI search parties, they needed to be careful about this and play to their strengths as a movement. There were a lot of eyes on the Planet who could keep him informed of where the LPI was looking and most importantly when, exploiting a window once it presented itself was going to be the more tedious bit of this situation.
