Convergence Infinites: Mobius Beyond

N.A.T.O

The ship came to a stop some distance from the station. A number of individuals suddenly appeared throughout the ship. They were bipedal beings, shorter than humans, with skin that was almost bioluminescent. Edee tried crawling up one. He found their skin to be warm and greasy. The individual's body flared, causing minor damage to Edee. Corona fired her blaster at it, and its body flared again.

At that point, Edee decided to try to catch the attention of one of the beings. Eventually, he succeeded. One of the individuals placed something around his neck. It was apparently a translation device.

Edee asked for the ship back. The translator replied that it was their ship. When asked where they were, he explained that it was Exploration Station. Edee and Tal insisted that it had been a kid's show on the holonet. The translator explained that they were exploring the multiverse.

They found themselves teleported to a conference room on the station. When asked about the plants in the habitat, the translator explained that they were apparently picked up by Holly's crew on their exploration, and they weren't native to their universe. He explained that they were beings of energy. The crew had been brought there through a safety recall. The ship was hardcoded to return if its technology had been replicated. At that, everyone looked at Kelto.

Edee said that he couldn't speak for everyone, but, since he had nowhere to return to, he'd like to explore some more. The translator said that that was out of his hands. He also informed them that, while they were repairing Holly's systems, some of the database was irrevocably damaged.

He asked them to follow him a short distance and took them to rooms. For some of the crew, the accomodations were a little on the small side. He told them meals would be brought later. When asked if it would be snot, he explained that Holly's replicator must have suffered damage to its database.

Dakon called everyone for a meeting in the corridor. Corona more or less suggested we trade them Kelto. Dakon wasn't sure he was buying that these were good guys. He also pointed out that some of the crew wouldn't want to stay. It was suggested that we say we had personal effects on the ship, including personal, vital data. Dakon said if they can't talk their way back onto the ship, they'll have to steal it.

The next day, the translator offered to show them around. Edee asked about how they mate. Saya pointed out that Edee is far too obsessed with mating, while he retorted that she has a harem. They rode on moving discs to view the habitats from the numerous ships. They contained non-sentient lifeforms, and there were also "volunteers'.

The translator took them to a subplant that resembled Holly's engine room in some ways. He said that they harnessed gravity in the universe to provide energy. When asked, he explained that it only need to be maintained about every 30 years or so.

From their vantage point, he showed them their habitat - a jumbled mass of Tatooine, Mon Calamari, Zeltros, Alderaan, ect. He said that it might be necessary to create additional habitats since there was so much information.

Edee asked about the multiverse. Their translator explained that each universe is a potential. They had begun as one universe, but a significant event in a universe would spawn another. Their universe and this one were parallel universes. They had a common beginning, and it was possible that they could converge at some point, although other universes would have to converge first. Saya seemed quite interested in it. Each multiverse is a single strand very thinly separated from the others. They were able to travel between them by attuning themselves to the other universe. Sometimes they might pass to different places or even times. Saya suggested that it might be compared to tides. While the ebb and flow could be known, there was always a chance that something could disrupt it. Edee got really bored.
