More about First contact...

S DL 'White Fin' makes first contact with a recreational cruise ship 'Harmony of Sea' as it's land bound passenger marvel at the tall and bulky aliens descend from their ship. Guttural sounds emanate from these hulking explorers as they appear to communicate amongst them.

A decision seems to have been made, one of the creatures, of smaller stature but no less imposing build, signals to a few of the others, then to the passengers and begins walking towards the bridge.

The captain stands, frozen in place by the sudden boarding. After a minute he manages to look away from the ship floating above his own and takes of towards the deck. As he marches decidedly, thinking, worrying about his crewmen, about the passengers. Suddenly he stops in his tracks, one of the aliens, decorated with red and yellow strips stands in front of him. The creature points at his chest, then at his own as it emits another deep growl.

Slowly, he step towards the alien, carefully, unsure of what to say, afraid of the implications of having a space-fleet sailing adobe him. He is about speak when the alien extends a fin and hands the captain a small, intricately crafted device. The device hums to life emitting a faintly glow as it begins speaks clear in English:
" Greetings Capitan, we are the Gun'thaar. You and your crew are safe. We come in peace."
