"I will keep this brief" She pauses.
Her voice echoes through the Azure Horizon.
"Our vessel has suffered severe damage during the attack"
"The primary engines have been destroyed. Emergency systems are operational and the crew remains at their stations."
She omits the grimmer details.
No need to spread panic.
"At present, the ship is still stable and under partial control"
Then came the important part.
"Every passenger cabin aboard the Azure Horizon contains two emergency evacuation drone ships"
She allowed a moment for the information to sink in.
"These drone ships are compact autonomous drone ships designed to carry a single passenger to a pre-designated location"
Her voice hardens.
"Additional units are available for cabins occupied by more than one individual"
"Activation of these evacuation craft will occur only upon my command"
The captain's voice became firm enough to cut through steel.
"Do not attempt to access, activate, or interfere with them"
