You were aboard one of the military ship from your fleet, but you encountered space pirates and your ship was damaged to the point of having catastrophic failure. You just had the time to use an escape pod and are now stranded in deep space.

Several days later, your escape pod is found by a strange looking ship, probably of alien origin. There is the name of the ship on the hull : 'Triton'.

You pod is intercepted inside the landing bay of the ship.
