The two men walk through the open gate in the metal fence and across the lot of crushed stone toward the metal buildings. As the way there is a crunching sound under there boots that mixes well with the smell of oils, ozone and chemicals that permeate the air. The door to the "Office" is unlocked and opens into a dimly lighted interior. There is an empty table and chairs in the center of the room. To the left there is a counter with stacks of boxes behind it, and an open door that leads out into the warehouse. To the right there is are shelves with a number of parts, boxes, and unidentified "stuff" on them, as well as a door that leads out into the "yards" where the surplused and salvageable ships are kept. Behind the counter are a pair of men. One is short and gray haired, Ricardo recognizes him as Pete. The other is tall and young with his long hair tied back in a pony tail, you don't recognize him. "Morning! Can I help you." Pete calls out from behind the counter as he limps around it toward you. As he moves out from behind the counter you see that he is wearing short gray pants to match his gray tee shirt. You can also see that his left leg is artificial, and the knee joint isn't bending properly as he walks causing the limp. Eris AKU GM
