Ark Royal floated though hyperspace. She was still close to the huge engine test vessels as she escorted them to Minbar. Douglas viewed them despondently out of his cabin window.

John Sheridan was woken by a knock on his stateroom door.

Ark Royal hung in space close to the gravity well of the planet. Garibaldi’s test ships had been on the planet for a couple of hours with no signals.
