The AI is female in nature, and the medical team is of mixed races of white, black, Asian, and Latino. Dr Zhang is our brilliant chief engineer.
As the XO (Executive Officer) on board the Argonaut, I had always been prepared for the worst. But nothing could have prepared me for the day that the captain died.
It started like any other day, with the captain leading the morning briefing and outlining our mission objectives. But as we set out into the unknown reaches of the galaxy, something felt off. The captain seemed distant and preoccupied, and I could sense a growing unease among the crew.
It wasn’t until we received word from fleet command that we knew something was truly amiss.
The captain of the Argonaut, a man named Captain Jameson, had been leading his ship and its crew through the galaxy for over a decade. He was a seasoned veteran of countless battles and had earned the respect and admiration of his crew.
But one day, during a routine mission, Captain Jameson was struck by a mysterious illness. As the ship’s medical team fought to save his life, the captain’s condition only grew worse. His body began to shut down, and he lapsed into a coma. The crew was devastated, and many of them were in tears as they watched their beloved captain fight for his life.
Despite their best efforts, the medical team was unable to save Captain Jameson. He passed away, surrounded by his crew, who mourned his loss deeply.
The ship’s chaplain performed a sombre funeral service, and the crew paid their respects as the captain’s body was carried out of the ship and into the depths of space.
The crew was in shock, and many of them struggled to come to terms with the loss of their leader. They had grown to rely on Captain Jameson’s guidance and leadership, and his absence left a gaping hole in their lives. But they knew that they had to continue, for the sake of their mission and for the memory of their fallen captain.
This is the communication I received a week after Captain Jameson died.
