0430, 18 billion Kilometers from Sol System.

2 Caernarvon IIs leave slipspace. They activate their spotlights, revealing 2 halves of an E-200 class cruiser. The lead C II class vessel glides next to the from half, on it it, it says AIF Devine Winds, Arkady's flagship.

Johnston: (Captain of the lead ship) Bingo, we got it.

Billy: (captain of the second ship) Man, we're far from Sol system, how did they got here?

Johnston: Don't know, but first, we need to find out exactly how far. Manifest, calculate distance from Sol System.

Manifest: (ship's AI) Approximately 18 billion kilometers from Sol System.

Johnston: Dang, I wonder what happened... Well, collect the black box, and see if you can recover some data from the mounted cameras.

5 Months ago...

Arkady: Set a corse to Ceres, I'm going to talk to cole.

Officer: Yes sir.

The ship enters slipspace. About 3 minutes later, the entire ship except for the engines go dark for about 3 second.

Arkady: What was that?

Officer: Not sure, scanning systems.

Arkady: WHAT THE HELL.

Officer: Hull breach at sector 10D, total loss of engine 4, engine 2 is now down to 28%, The rest is is at 58%.

Arkady: LEAVE SLIPSPACE, NOW!

As the ship leaves slipspace, it shows up next to a very large ship, the CNV Solace.

Arkady: BATTLESTATIONS.

The warning siren rings through out the ship, the cannons on the Devine winds turn towards the Solace and fires, causing minor damage, when 2 Devotions leave slipspace beside the E-200. It fires onto the ship, sitting it in half. Meanwhile, on the bridge...

Arkady: DAMAGE REPORT.

Officer: Major hull breach at section 10, the ship is split into half, we lost all comms with the second half. The reserve power supply is quickly running out.

Arkady: Direct all power to escape pods, this ships is lost.

Officer: Sir?

Arkady: You heard me, ABANDON SHIP, REPEAT,  ABANDON SHIP.

5 minutes later, most of the pods were recovered by Seraphs, including Arkady's. When it was recovered, Arkady was unconscious.
