[7:58][DOIC]Xaelei@Arniman:The camera opens after the credit roll to the Adagio and Yukikaze gliding along at warp speeds...close to the Black Ocean..close enough to see the roiling energies that bristle at the boundry edge
[7:59][DOIC]Xaelei@Arniman:The crew get use to rather constant adjusts to course and speed to stay close to the boundry edge as they proceed foward on their mission. Talia records her opening log as she looks out her offic

[9:02][DOIC]Talia@Isis:=^= Captain's Log, Stardate 98641.62. It has been three days since we turned the salvaged0-8 space station over to the USS Skipjack and the tug USS Ellison to be towed back to the Citadel. I hav
[9:03][DOIC]Talia@Isis:hope that some progreess will be made in the on board AI's recovery by the time we return to the Citadel. The Lady A and Yukikzae have been returned to their patrol
[9:04][DOIC]Talia@Isis:To say things are tense down here in the LMC Sector 2031 are tense would be an understantement. The crew of the Protector managed to stop a horrifying andmost unconvetional attack on the Kzari hom

[9:08][DOIC]Talia@Isis:it ...so much like an off shore storm from back home...Talia out
[9:09][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-staresout her window along the shoreline of the storm as she sips from her mug of eggnog
[9:10][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:-stares at the mug with an unreadable expression
[9:11][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-not turning she says- Would you care for some
[9:11][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:No. No thank you
[9:11][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Tracey] -is goingover her new ACCI Updates
[9:11][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -makes a few adjustments to their current heading
[9:11][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:-looks away instead..or rather looks to more "zone out"
[9:12][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-smirks- Not a fan eh
[9:13][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:Likely I could not diguest it...that I am trying to purge to memories of the various Strawberry Suprise...beverage series..
[9:13][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--Peebs beep boops on her console in time to the imaginary Christmas music in her head.-
[9:13][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-chuckles- Oh Comenow..Strawberry Surprise ..423 was not too bad ..was it
[9:14][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:Lifeless eyes stare at the screen on front of them. A computerized display of the expanse of space, along with any vessels or anomolies it may contain
[9:14][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:the pinncale of the series, thus far.
[9:14][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Hanson] -is humming some christmas songs as she works
[9:15][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:Yes i felt thathad to be the most strawberryish ye
[9:15][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--looks around at the various bridge crew as she tries to figure out who drew her name in the secret santa drawing.-
[9:15][DOIC]Xaelei@Arniman:-the Adagio jostles a big as if hitting something like atmosphere turbulance
[9:15][DOIC]Xaelei@Arniman:-bit
[9:16][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-her snaps around and she hits her combadge- =^= Talia to Commander Sevu
[9:16][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--her eyes go wide-- "Konman did you just run over a possum?
[9:16][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -blinks- Oooka

[9:17][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--looks over her board-- "well I am not reading any damage to any systems..
[9:17][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:=^= Report what did we hit..or whatjustit us
[9:17][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:=^= Report what did we hit..or what just hit us
[9:18][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Mister Konmal
[9:18][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"Nothing one sensors, sir.
[9:18][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:on
[9:18][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] We didnt runover anything sir
[9:19][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"Dammit Konman if you ran over santa I am going to be very upset..
[9:19][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] I would say..something hit us..gravmetric shear maybe
[9:19][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -growls- I did not runover Sant
[9:20][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -blinks and double checks his console readouts
[9:20][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--smiles-- "Good because he owes me some presents, I've been good.
[9:20][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Hanson] Hell yes..me to
[9:21][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--nods to Hanson-
[9:21][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -through clentched fangs- I did not runover Santa Claw
[9:21][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Tracey] -chuckles
[9:22][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:=^= Captain...we do not know for sure
[9:22][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] I have a report Mr sevu
[9:22][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Report
[9:22][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"Checking the main deflector system logs, maybe it had to push a big rock out of the way.
[9:22][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-goes to answer but then hears about the report..he doesnthave and waits justlooking over at Xae
[9:24][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] Sir..Ada made a hasty course correction, reporting a 'force' had taken a briefpull on us from within the Black Ocean. Shemerely kept us from thepull and on cours
[9:24][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] ithappened too quicly for anyonebut her to have caught i
[9:24][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Tracey] That is..disconcernin
[9:24][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> I hope no one minded..it happened so fast
[9:25][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:=^= It seems that Ada...was responding to some sort of 'pull' from the Black Ocean. What you felt was a sudden course correction that avoided the pull
[9:26][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"The Black Ocean is trying to pull us in..well now, that is more than a little disconcerting..
[9:27][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:=^= Have maggie seeif the Yuki expereinced it as well...and have Ensign Dacia workw ith Ada to pinpoint where inside the Black Ocean that 'force' came from
[9:27][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Solia] Not at all..thank you Ada
[9:27][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-to Xae- Our fan club once more
[9:28][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Tracey] Yes thank you Ada
[9:28][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--sends a report to the Yuki and a request for data if they experienced the same thing.-
[9:28][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:Possible...perhaps the Alliance patrols also in the regio experience it..would not hurt to look over shared ACCI log
[9:28][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -mutters grimly- Told you people i did not run over sant
[9:29][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> You all are always welcome! I live to be of service
[9:29][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"alright, alright I am sorry I doubted you Konman.
[9:29][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:=^= Also Mr Sevuk..have Jessi go over the recent ACCI logs for thelast month or so..seeif any other patrols experienced this as wel
[9:29][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> Konmal is innocent of Santacide
[9:30][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -manages to look vindicated
[9:30][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:=^= Yes captain
[9:30][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:=^= Keep me updated Commander...captain out
[9:31][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Yeoman Peebles, check to see if the Yuki experienced the same phenomena
[9:32][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Ensign Decia, pinpoint where the force came from with Ada
[9:32][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:*Daci
[9:32][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"Yuki is reporting the same 'pull' from the Black Ocean required them to make an adjustment as well.
[9:32][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Hanson] Oh..here we g
[9:33][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Commander Tracey
[9:33][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Tracey] -looks over- On it sir! -nods as she goes overher logs
[9:33][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:*Sevuk nods.
[9:33][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"Aye, sir. We moved away from the pull via use of the port thruster, by calculating the exact angle and force needed to pull away we should be able to determine the location of the source." Her finge
[9:34][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -to Sevuk- Should I prep a course back to that location once found sir
[9:35][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:tap over the screen bringing up a log displaying the course correction while her mind works through the calculations
[9:35][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Plot a course and hold for further instructions, Lieutenant
[9:35][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -nods- Aye si
[9:37][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Tracey] -calls up her yearly Acci reports tocross index and loads up Alliance historical records for the region as well to cross index fopr her search
[9:45][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Commander Tracey
[9:45][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Tracey] -looks up as she is still makingnotes- Sir?
[9:46][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:I was inquiring as to whether you had an upduate
[9:47][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Tracey[ -sighs- Soo many of them sir...okay lets see.. I have anumber of reports of such amysterious pull now and goingback severalyears..it does not appear to be restricted to the 'Kzari Corridor'.
[9:47][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:it seems to pop up here and there all along the shores of the Black Ocean...sortalike what they call in nautical terms.a riptid
[9:48][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:I see. Thank you
[9:48][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:=^= Sevuk to Captain Talia
[9:48][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:=^= Go ahead commande
[9:49][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--has a flash back from being grabbed by the dark tentacles.-
[9:49][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--shudders
[9:50][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:=^= We have pinpointed the source of this 'pull, of which the Yuki reported experiencing the same effect. This appears to have happened in the past, not restricted to the Kzari Corridor but all aroun
[9:50][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:the borders of the 'Black Ocean'...comparable to the 'tide' of an ocean on a planet
[9:51][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:=^= I see...thank you commander. Have Dacia maintain a watch and try and see if she can get any further analysis on the effec
[9:51][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:=^= Have her work with eagleeye Ada to be sure we avoid them in the futur
[9:52][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:=^= Understood, captain
[9:52][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:=^= Anything further commander
[9:53][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:=^= No captain
[9:53][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:=^= Very well..spread the well done to the brdige crew and carry on then..Talia out
[9:54][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-walks back over to look over their gameboard..where Xae has her all but pinneddown...again
[9:54][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-smirks as she sips her eggnog and studies her options
[9:55][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:The captain wishes to inform all of you that you have done well. Ensign Dacia, continue your analysis of this...'pull'. Ensure we have a protocol set with Ada that we avoid them in the future
[9:55][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:There would be alot of speculation to the cause of these pulls...nothing proven
[9:56][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"Aye, sir." Analyses the pull
[9:56][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-nods- Whatis eek to avoid is the all tooeasy ..'She did it..itis her will' approac
[9:56][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:What I seek
[9:56][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:Indeed
[9:56][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:So much local lore gets lumped into what amounts to 'Its the Darks will or fault
[9:57][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-shakes her head- I want a more definitive answe
[9:58][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:Maritime sailors not matter of cultral affilcation seems collective a supsticious lot
[9:58][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-nods- It ws the sameon Andor...However I think this new kid wil ferret it out..
[9:58][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--glances at the main screen checking to make sure no tentacles are coming for them.-
[9:59][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:Most traffic on the ses or in space..being civilian..so easy to see how the culture of supersticion folds..even to this day
[9:59][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:Not without reason..
[9:59][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:She can be tenacious...not unlike Eren or Skye....or this grumpy scienceofficer I sued to have back in the da
[9:59][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:Tru
[9:59][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:Very Tru
[9:59][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:Here be there dragons...as they still sa
[10:00][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"it makes me nervous being this close to the Black Ocean.
[10:00][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:And space exploration has if nothing..increased such "dragons
[10:00][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Hanson] Almost like we are...what were they once called..stormchasers
[10:00][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-chuckles- and out here...that is literall
[10:01][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"...or maybe in range of some giant dark squid monsters..
[10:01][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"That is very understandable. The effects of the Black Ocean defy sense or reason. It is as though it were created by a 'god' that does whatever it wants whenever it wants without regard to scientifi
[10:01][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:theory.
[10:01][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:I think superstiion in a healthy dose is certain warrented..and likely beneficial. We do not have to understand something to know we likely should steer clear, yes
[10:01][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Solia] -nods- Most insightfu
[10:02][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Solia] Though we have discovered it does have certain limits as well
[10:03][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-smirks- I see what you did there...not unlike the need for the emotion of ...say Terror..yes
[10:03][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:From an evolutionary stand poin
[10:03][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:-smirks as she turns her gaze to the chess board- Just so..
[10:04][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-looks back to the board as she weighsher next move
[10:04][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Hanson] -looks over- You okay Mags
[10:05][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:Still though..we must balance such fears with out curioisit
[10:05][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"just peachy Nancy...not worried about being dragged kicking and screaming into the void of the Black Ocean at all.
[10:05][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> If it helps Dacia..the Black Ocean is believe to have been created maintained by something of an emotional "Aspect" regarded in many cultures as Terror
[10:06][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:We will not be dragged into the ocean
[10:06][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Hanson] She was shaken up a bit..bythe tentacle encounter ada -offers gently
[10:06][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"aye sir, it is only gently tugging at us...
[10:07][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] We ignored it Maggie..it was little threa
[10:07][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"This time..
[10:07][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] It they try..we fight!
[10:08][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> Indeed. Like Konmal said..that reports of it happen means many encouter them, none the worse for ware
[10:08][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Tracey] andnoone was dragged anywhere Peeb
[10:08][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"Thank you, Ada. One could reason that such a being, if the theory is correct, could be countered with courage. However the only way to test it would be to steer the ship directly into the Ocean an
[10:08][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> Though..it is and added hazard for a disabled vessel
[10:08][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:see if it weakens.
[10:09][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -brightens- Exactly! -looks toDacia- I likehow you think kid
[10:09][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> Dacia..we have done that
[10:09][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"Did the force in fact weaken, Ada?
[10:09][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> In fact..we helped in part of a mass effort to regain this Cooridor from a surge that washed over it..
[10:10][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -remineces- Oh what agloriousbattle that was indee
[10:10][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--turns back to her work, hardly seem convinced all is well.-
[10:11][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Tracey] Konmal..we almost lost sevuk that fight and Nancy -nods to hanson
[10:11][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -nods- They fought wel
[10:13][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:*Sevuk nods.* I recall
[10:13][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> Dacia..there is a reclaimed star...Hope's Light in the midst of the Black Ocean..we been there too..that was a trip
[10:13][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:-
[10:14][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"I see, exactly how was the star reclaimed?
[10:14][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"Wow. That seems like a pretty precarious position to be in. Surrounded by the Black Ocean..
[10:14][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> The Avyeni did it. That had a large fleet there
[10:15][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> We meet then there..much to their surprise..the captain want to make a show we were ready to chip in and do our part
[10:16][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> Soon after..we were part of offsenive that say the reclaiming of another star the system,,,Xert
[10:17][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Solia] The ancient homewrold to an Allied Race of Cybertically enhanced people the Xert -to Dacia- theya renow part of the Dawn Alliance
[10:17][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--places a gentle hand over her cross pendant around her neck. Pauses a moment with he eyes closes as if in quiet prayer.-
[10:17][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"I recall reading the reports on Xert. The Avyeni are a telepathic race, are they not?
[10:18][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> Indeed..but there are still isloated...the Avynei are under constant assault to keep the system free
[10:18][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Taylor] -the Captain's other, often considered very attractive yeoman reports tot he rbidge and looks to ssee who is at the command chair and sashays over to sevuk
[10:18][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Patterson] -looks up to follow Taylor's every move
[10:19][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--Peebs cold calculating eyes follow the rival yoeman.-
[10:19][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Yeoman
[10:20][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Taylor] -pauses and hands Sevuk her paDD full of status reports- For you to sgn off on sir -smiles a warm charming smile to him and she waits
[10:20][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> As for the Avynei..they are an ancient race. Yes telepathic and empathic..they also bear a striking resemblance to being in many mythos os many culture
[10:21][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--fantacizes about a dark tentacle grabbing taylor and dragging her off into the void.-
[10:22][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--a small wicked little grin flashes across her face.-
[10:22][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"I see, thank you Ada. Please display all scientific studies regarding psychic abilities to this console.
[10:22][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> The first contact we had with a yet unknow Avynei was Kylia...she was disovered by the crew of the Sentinel
[10:22][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Taylor] -waits for him to review with her hand on her hip, strrikinga statuesque pose
[10:23][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:*Sevuk reads the report, then hands it back.* Thank you Yeoman
[10:23][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> Studies..not sure what you mean Dacia...there are not current "studies" on the Avynei...I guess they are not prone to subject themselves as study cases
[10:23][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Taylor] -nods still falshing her friendly smile as she accepts the PADD back- Yes sir, your very welcome. Do you require anything else sir
[10:24][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"Not the Avynei, Ada. Simply empathic and telepathic abilities such as among the Betazoids and the Vorta.
[10:26][DOIC]Xaelei@Arniman:-slight jostle once again
[10:26][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -merely just checks in onhis console to see if the same effect
[10:26][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--Peeb's eyes go wide.-- "what was that?
[10:26][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Report
[10:27][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> Compliing serve for you now Dacia..thought if I can suggest consulting with Dr Rendino next of the Citadel..either mother or daughte
[10:27][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--grabs her cross pendant and takes soem deep breaths-
[10:27][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] Samef orce att he ssameweaklevel as before.Ada immediately course correcte
[10:29][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"The Black Ocean really takes all the fun out of a day at the beach..
[10:30][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:I see
[10:35][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Taylor] -to Sevuk- Sir
[10:35][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Yes Yeoman
[10:35][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Taylor] -giggles a musicallike giggle- Do you require anything further Commander
[10:36][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:No
[10:37][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Taylor] -nods and hugs her PADD to her chest and spins on her heel and sashays back off to the turbolift, pausing to to address the others- Oha nd dont forget to get your Pie Night orders in befor
[10:37][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:end of watch all. Mom isbringing out her holiday specials. -with that she enters the turbolift andis gone
[10:37][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Patterson] -finally breathes
[10:38][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--sighs-
[10:38][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"could this day possibly get worse?" --she grumbles.-
[10:39][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:How are things getting 'worse', Yeoman
[10:39][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:With a few taps at the console, Dacia's screen splits. One side showing a sensor reading of the area. The other displaying a recorded image of a Vorta pushing blocks across a table with it's mind
[10:39][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"Sorry sir, nothing to report...relevant to ship operations.
[10:40][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"If current theories hold true, your distaste for Yeoman Taylor will serve us better than your fear of the Ocean.
[10:40][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:I see
[10:41][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"May I suggest focusing on your hatred. Imagine yourself ejecting her from an airlock, or hacking her to pieces with an axe.
[10:41][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Hanseon] -breaksout inlaughter
[10:41][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Tracey] -rolls her eyes and chuckles
[10:41][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"What? Distaste for Yoeman Taylor...I don't know what you are talking about.
[10:41][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -laughs- I like this on
[10:42][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> Says the Santa slayer..
[10:42][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"I could never imagine harming a fellow crew emember.." --looks guilty as she turns back to her console.-
[10:43][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"Of course not, Yeoman Peebles. Forget I said anything.
[10:43][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Ada -> Oppsie..did I say that out loud
[10:43][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:[Konmal] -tightly- I did not run over santa

[10:46][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--suddenly goes quiet and looks focused as she makes adjustments and pushes buttons-
[10:47][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"Hold On, I think I am receiving a signal on one of the Kzari emergency frequencies.
[10:47][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"...its faint...lots of static.
[10:48][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--tries to clean the signal up-
[10:49][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Once you have it cleared up, play it
[10:49][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"it is some sort of automatic bouy signal. possibly a nav bouy or hazzard beacon.
[10:51][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"Processing the signal now, it is an older Kzari protocol.
[10:52][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-finally reachesover andmoves her knight twoboards up and then over a square
[10:53][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Let me know when you have a location
[10:53][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:So...did youstart your shopping yet -amused to Xae
[10:53][DOIC2]Xaelei@Arniman:Shopping for what
[10:53][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-shakes herhead once- The holiday seaso

[10:54][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-finishes off her mug of eggnog
[10:54][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"Trying to localize the signal now sir.
[10:54][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"whatever it is, it had likily been out here a while.
[10:55][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:*Sevuk quirks an eyebrow.
[10:55][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"First it tries to pull us in, and now it offers bait.
[10:55][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"it is somewhere ahead of us sir...with the interference I can't get a better fix on it than that...at least until we get close.
[10:56][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"i doubt it is bait...probably an old Kzari navigation bouy.
[10:57][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:=^= Sevuk to Captain Tali
[11:00][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-chuckles- Whymust we do this every year ..You are just..-stops and hits herc ombadge- =^= Go ahead Mr Sevu
[11:02][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:=^= We have located what appears to be a Kzari navigation bouy, or hazard beacon
[11:03][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:=^= Its location
[11:03][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:=^= Ahead of us...there is significant interference
[11:04][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:=^= Very well maintain course aqnd speed..Im on my way
[11:04][DOIC2]Talia@Isis:-looks to Xae- Time tomind the store it seem

[11:05][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"Sir, may I suggest we use the same technique Commander Xaelei used to locate the station, to locate the exact location of the probe? By lauching a communication probe we should be able to coordinat
[11:06][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:with it and the Yakuzi to triangulate it's precise coordinates.
[11:06][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:strides out onto her bridge and over tot eh command center- Status commander
[11:07][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:We are still on our previous course and speed, captain...Ensign Dacia had an idea on how to locate the beacon
[11:07][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:-to Dacia- Prep a com probe Ensig
[11:07][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:-nods to Sevuk- Well done Commande
[11:07][DOIC1]Sevuk@ClingingMar:Thank you captain

[11:10][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:=/\=Adagio to Yuki, we are attempting to triangulate the location of an old Kzari bouy, we will need your ears for this.=/\
[11:11][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"i am not sure what the bouy is marking, if there is any data in the signal I am not able to decipher it.

[11:12][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:Steady as she goes hel
[11:12][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:Once the Yuki and the probe start sending their data, Dacia attempts to mathamatcially work out the exact coordinates of the buoy
[11:12][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:Understood Maggie..it mightjust be a simple nav marke
[11:13][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"aye captain.
[11:13][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:Dependingon the ageof the bouy it may have even been placed there by a different type of Kzar

[11:16][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"Coordinates found, Captain. Heading 277, mark 13. At present speed we will reach the buoy in five minutes. Captain, be advised that this will bring us into the tidal zone.

[11:25][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:Well its orgin is clearly modern Kzari technolog
[11:25][DOIC]Xaelei@Arniman:I believe Maggie speculated the signals enouncter may had been days old..
[11:25][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"...its a bit outdated but as far as I can tell it is a nav bouy in current use..
[11:25][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:I believe Maggie speculated the signals enouncter may had been days old..
[11:26][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:This likely is not the original location of the bouy...considering the...pulled effects incountered
[11:26][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:So very possibly ship launche
[11:26][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:-chuckles- Its trying to eat thebouy the
[11:27][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"being moved by tidal forces would explain why this bouy does not seem to be marking anything but empty space.
[11:27][DOIC]Xaelei@Arniman:Eventually rhe rest of the crew is able to see what Talia's sharp eyes spotted a moment ago as the pull up on the Kzari nav bouy and come to station keepin
[11:27][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:Hold us on station Mr Konma
[11:27][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:"it raises they question about what it was intended to mark.
[11:28][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:Any signal marked as a ships bouy Maggie
[11:28][DOIC1]Xaelei@Arniman:Indeed..and matching military technolgy..nothing from the merchant marine corp
[11:28][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:That is what bothers me X
[11:28][DOIC1]Peebles@Demoncheru:--scans for any other signals.-

[11:31][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"Scanning, Captain. No trace emissions detected. Please note that in our previous encounters, the Black Ocean has defied all attempts at scanning.

[11:32][DOIC1]Talia@Isis:-nods to Dacia- I washoping for a trail leading in.
[11:33][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"Captain, if the Kzari are more skillful at traversing the Ocean than us, it may be possible for them to detect something we send in. Such as our communications probe.

[11:33][DOIC1]Dacia@nathan#353:"We may not be able to find them, but they may be able to find us.
