Green-skinned, muscular Namekian-style humanoids with sharp facial features, prominent pointed ears, and defined musculature, are actively engaged in various scholarly and collaborative tasks.

One wise Namekian elder, with a long, braided beard and a particularly ornate helmet, gestures towards a holographic projection of a towering memorial site, while another, a younger female warrior-scholar with piercing eyes, meticulously examines a fragile ancient scroll depicting archaeological findings. Other Namekian-Viking professionals are gathered around a massive, intricately carved oak table laden with meticulously preserved artifacts - a blend of ancient weaponry, pottery, and natural history specimens - their expressions a mix of reverence for the past and determined vision for the future.The environment seamlessly blends elements: towering wooden support beams carved with Norse knotwork stand alongside sleek, glowing data terminals.
