L: Jade Rings
Lief was the first one out of the airlock, despite his father's protests. He glanced around the docking area calmly, cataloguing everything into his memory library without actually evaluating it yet.
Cool jade panels lined the background surfaces, as though the station were built from jewel quality stone instead of an ordinary mixture of metal, plastic, and ceramic. Wary eyes met his gaze, but no one seemed to have been expecting their arrival. He stepped back and let his mind process for a moment. Nothing he'd seen set off any alarms, so he sent an 'OK' back to the waiting King of Eks Corp.
Regis Aldrich stepped through the airlock after his eldest son, as calmly as though he were boarding his own station. His eyes scanned the docking area without any doubt that he should be allowed or even expected to survey everything in as much detail as he wished. No trace of the plan he'd outlined to his son was exposed on his face.
