Dr.Mala escorted Avarris through the ship as the pup trotted along happily between them. "Navarre has done well for himself." Avarris beamed with pride. "A ship and crew. I'm very proud of him." "Well," Mama giggled lightly. "He's a good man and Captain. As for the rest." She shook her head and smiled. "Not exactly your normal ship or crew. You'll come to see that in time." "In what way?" Avarris was curious now. Not understanding the full meaning of her statement. "We all come from a somewhat dubious backgrounds." Her expression for a moment seemed to darken. "As for the Orpheus." She threw her hands in the air. "The Orpheus is an enigma as far as ships go. I still haven't come to terms with everything on this boat." "So I have a lot to learn?" "A lot." Male smiled again. "Pretty easy going for the most part. And our Captain has grown a lot since I first encountered him as well." "He was trained for ship operations and command." Avarris stated. "That's good to hear. I know his confidence and determination has gone up." She pointed to the doors ahead. "And that's the bridge."
