Five-Minute fiction - 23:14-23:19
I dont think you appreciate the gravity of the situation, sir, Mires said as the sub-orbital touched down on the runway.
The craft wobbled slightly on the uneven surface, and Cresa watched as Mires visibly paled.
Not much for flying? he asked with a smile.
No. Well, yes actually, I quite enjoy flying its the bad landing Im not overtly fond of, he replied. Now, as I was saying, I dont think you understand what kind of message you are sending to the people of the area. The other ethnic tribes specifically. The area is renowned for its political instability, the majority of which is rooted in the deep hatred shared between the neighbouring tribes.
Mires appeared to become more and more frantic as he pushed the sentence out in what felt like a single breath.
Mr Mires, I can appreciate the gravity of the situation, and I can appreciate your concern. What I cannot appreciate is the possibility that will be lost if we cannot move forward on this operation. The Arcology is already more than six months behind, and we havent even started construction. Thankfully, I have managed to source materials, and a central contractor to oversee the construction, but the labour force, and location are still.
