The Lowry sent a curt acknowledgement to Chertstone's request - text only. For a verbal communication to be returned via text indicated that someone on the other ship was slightly less than enthusiastic about the orders.
As an old Curry-class Support Cruiser, the Lowry was long past its prime, assuming it had even had one. It was, in many ways, a contemporary of Yeager's immediate predecessor. Specifications on the elderly cruiser indicated that while it was capable of Warp Eight, such velocities would be considered "flat out". Any faster, and the engines would redline very, very quickly.
