[Bail does his best not to show just how confused he is right now. Even surrounded by strangers, he defaults to habits acquired when those around him looked to him for guidance. But he has questions. It's only natural.]

Is there a library to be found somewhere on this vast vessel? I wish to learn of the space we are travelling through. More importantly, of the people on the worlds we might come to.

[A pause while he further considers the situation]

Failing that, would anyone here be able to explain the local political and cultural climate?

[jilt]

Not a one, I'm afraid. There are some belonging to passengers that may prove more easily read, but the ones aboard the ship are in no language I've ever seen.

Then we truly are far from familiar stars.

[jilt]

Are you one of those who comes from a place where this sort of thing is familiar? Traveling through the stars, and all that?

[bailedontheempire]

Yes, humans have been travelling the stars for millenia where I come from.

[jilt]

And what have they found among the stars, if I might ask?

[bailedontheempire]

Countless other civilizations are probably the most important discoveries.
