Spaceship Spaceship Spaceship

Who: Harlock, Donatello, Terra, Kaitlyn, Atom, Kanna,
What: Let's steal a pirate ship back!
Where: A military installation in Davkor
When: Shortly after Asphodel preparations are complete.



Harlock had his suspicions where his dear Arcadia was taken, but among all the military bunkers, factories and storehouses, finding the right installation was trickier - as while he was there briefly, he was knocked out before being taken to the Larnedt labor camp where he was rescued. as he did not want to waste time searching deep in enemy territory, but a combination of intel from the deep-cover Corsairs, and a happenstance of a soldier in Vindess having been transferred out from Davkor, drunkenly bragging about the "Weird shit" she was guarding.

Once he got what he needed, he had sent out a missive, either to those he knew personally and could trust, or those he had heard would be suitable for a mission of this type.

"The heart...?" Ships have souls? What? Donnie's really no good at these sorts of concepts, but at least it'll help to know that he should probably address the ship as more than a ship.

"It'd probably be more preferable if you were there to do so, I agree, but um. I'm going to assume we'll need a rundown on how to do that if that's not the case."

Because he imagines they'll all be wanting to get out of there as soon as possible once they're clear.

"The ship will never leave me behind," He assured with an absolute confidence of someone who had been in similar situations and had his faith proven true.

Harlock pauses for a moment, well... it was time to tell the secret, it was necessary in his war back home to keep the Mazones from figuring out how they kept surviving. "Yes... the heart," he points deep in the bowels of the ship. "Is a {{Supercomputer}}... an advanced calculating machine, but besides the that ability... the Arcadia possesses the mind and soul of it's creator - my eternal friend."

Donnie blinks at that. The more Harlock talks about the ship, the more alive it sounds.

He looks back down at the outline of the ship, focusing on that space where the captain points out as though he's able to actually see it if he looks hard enough. "Wait-" He lifts his head then, staring at Harlock.

"So it is an actual person in there?"

[freearcadia]

He nods. "In a sense... he is no longer among the living."
