The military has many strict rules. One of them is that he mustn't fly here even if he can.
He can understand why after seeing drones buzzing ahead like busy bees. Someone that flies will interfere with their work and might cause a crash.
Eventually, he gained access to the mothership. His access was limited, of course. He could only stay on the assembly floor.
Wrath had told him that the mothership has dormitories and sleeping bunks, but that they are not meant to be used. She had said that if they have to be used, then something is very wrong with the expedition.
He can understand why. He had only used the last mothership to go to the Lignum world. He didn't spend up to one hour in the mothership.
He saw the mothership many times after he disembarked. But he never got back onto it again. Apparently, that is a good thing.
There were already soldiers on the assembly floor. In front was the first division. They were packed like sardines in a tin.
