[5:59][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:** The STAR TREK: PILGRIM theme is replaced by https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMEZIgXzoIk tonight. *
[6:00][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:** We open once more on the Emporium, where the Pilgrim has been parked for a little over a day as the crew explored its collection of strange shops and bizarre inhabitants. We return to a certain..
[6:00][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:table at the robot-operated bar where T’Pang sits with some of her crew and prepares for an upcoming meeting with an unexpected potential ally. We can hear her previously-recorded log as a voice..
[6:00][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:over... *
[6:03][DOIC]T'Pang@Demoncheru:Captain's Log, Stardate 99998.73, During our exploration of the strange 'emporium' station we encountered our old 'friend' Captain Son of the Tanasauan Imperium
[6:04][DOIC]T'Pang@Demoncheru:It seems Son is having something of a crisis of faith. He did not say what question he had for the soothsdayer up stairs and I did not ask. Whatever it was it was important enough for him to sell 
[6:05][DOIC]T'Pang@Demoncheru:piece of his soul for the information. No the man seems plauged by doubts. Doubts about the Imperium leadership and doubts about this war
[6:07][DOIC]T'Pang@Demoncheru:Enough so that he seems willing to make a deal with me to help bring about an end to the conflict. He has made it clear that he has no intention of betraying his people and that this is by no mean
[6:07][DOIC]T'Pang@Demoncheru:an overture of peace between the Imperium and the Dawn Alliance. Term I am quite willing to accept
[6:10][DOIC]T'Pang@Demoncheru:I must be cautius however, It can not be rulked out that this is Son laying out the beginnings of a trap for me and my crew. But, the prize here is worth the risk and I intend to persue it
[6:10][DOIC]T'Pang@Demoncheru:I am preparing for my second meeting with Son, where I will learn more about what he has in mind here. End Log
[6:13][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The little robot bar was less crowded today. Nadine could be seen at the other side of the room, keeping an eye out between rounds of the ring game.
[6:13][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-sits before the mugof her untouched drink ass he waits, her eyes sweepinghere and there over the crowd
[6:15][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] "I'm still not discounting this being a very needlessly elaborate Tanausan plan," *she muttered.
[6:16][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-looks to T'Pang at that
[6:16][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"as well we should not. But, the prize here is too big to walk away from.
[6:17][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:...peace in our time my Kaptain
[6:17][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] *She looked briefly thankful Nadine hadn't been here to hear that one.* "That it is... also, is it just me, or have we not seen any Tanausans here yet today?
[6:17][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:Ja. the bar is somevhat..emptier than befor
[6:18][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"As close as we are likily to get with the Apostate forces. At least a truce. An end to hostilities.
[6:18][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:I remind you Kaptain..it vas they vho invaded u
[6:19][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:this vas not mutua
[6:19][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] "Which makes it easier to end things... if they withdraw, and we don't pursue.
[6:19][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Son is most likily going to arrange things so there wont be any Tanasaunans here at this time."
[6:19][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-eyes Krinn at that
[6:20][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] *She looked back at Elise.* "What? You think we should kick them after they pull back?
[6:20][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:Of course -matter of factly
[6:21][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"a sentiment I don't necessarily disagree with.
[6:21][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:To strike back und end their ability to make further var
[6:21][DOIC1]Istrin@the5of43:*Istrin tilted his head and looked toward T'pang
[6:22][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] *She frowned slightly.* "That would draw out the conflict even longer, no?
[6:22][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-smirks- Of course. To end the var, one must defeat one's opponent ja
[6:23][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:To reduce thei industry and government to rubble, crush their planetary infrastruction until their empire collapses in on itself
[6:23][DOIC1]Istrin@the5of43:*he nodded, bringing his drink up to take a sip
[6:24][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:to final viktory...ja
[6:24][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"But, at what cost?
[6:24][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:kost my Kaptain
[6:24][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-looks over from Krinnto T'Pang
[6:25][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*A woman in a hood and veil stepped into the bar, her footsteps making no sound as she moved with an unnerving grace to their table.
[6:26][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"it is one thing to drive them out of alliance territory, but invading their space will be costly in terms of lives and equipmentt.
[6:26][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] "If they---" *She fell silent, looking up at the woman with narrowed eyes.
[6:26][DOIC1]Istrin@the5of43:*he cleared his throat as the hooded figure walked closer
[6:26][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-turns towards the new arrival
[6:26][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang turned and looked aqt the hooded figure.-
[6:28][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Hooded Woman] "Captain T'Pang." *She said in an eerie, ethereal tone as she lowered her veil to show her self to be a Nirizean, black abyssal eyes staring through her.
[6:28][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-tightly to the hooded Nizarean- Drop ypour gaze fro the Kaptain...now -ice cold
[6:28][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"I am captain T'Pang. How may I help you?
[6:28][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-tenses to pounce
[6:29][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-hand goes reflexively to an empty sidearm holster
[6:29][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *She looked at Elise then with those soul-piercing eyes.* "I mean no harm. I come on behalf of another.
[6:29][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T"pang holds her hand up to Elise-- "its quite okay Leftenant.
[6:30][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-side eyes to T'Pang not easing up until the order is given..she sits back- Aye My Kaptain -keeps her gaze fixed ont he hooden woman-
[6:31][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "Clarus Son is unable to meet you here tonight. There has been a complication. I've been directed to lead you to him instead.
[6:31][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang looks at the hooded woman-- "just me, or may my officers join me?
[6:33][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "The others may be positioned outside to guard you if you so choose.
[6:34][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"that is acceptable.
[6:34][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--she gets up to follow the Nirizean -
[6:34][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "Then come with me." *She replaced her veil and turned, gliding out of the bar.
[6:35][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--she followed-
[6:35][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] "Complication, huh..." *She frowned and followed.
[6:35][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-gets up looking to Ish and Krinn and signals Nadine as she follows T'Pang out
[6:35][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] *she gave Elise a wink.
[6:36][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-nods to Nadine seeing as they were thinking the same thing, smirks to herself at the wink
[6:36][DOIC1]Istrin@the5of43:*Istrin got up and followed along* Krinn, reach the Pilgrim and have a team on standby just in case.
[6:36][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *She lead them through the crowds toward a lift, stepping in to it calmly.
[6:37][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-occasionally checked to see if they were followed
[6:37][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "No one is following us," *she said, not looking at Elise.
[6:37][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "Well. No one from my ship.
[6:37][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-smirks- None the less I vill keep checking as vel
[6:38][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "I am aware.
[6:39][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"It is in the leftenant's nature to be vigiaent. It is what makes her such an effective officer.
[6:39][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "Indeed. It also may be the only reason Son still lives at present.
[6:39][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Lift went woosh.
[6:39][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"I do not doubt that.
[6:41][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The doors opened onto a deck they hadn't explored yet. This one didn't have any market stalls, but rather a series of shops and services directly integrated into the station.
[6:42][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"it would seem our explorations have merely scratched the surface of what this place has to offer.
[6:44][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *She began to move again, past a store selling 'love-droids,' one advertising long-term investment opportunities in elder obsidian mining ventures, and another with a few peculiar..
[6:44][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:crystalline devices on a fancy display in the window.
[6:44][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] "It's bigger on the inside than it looks on the outside," *she noted.
[6:45][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang merely nodded.-
[6:48][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *She lead them to a rather unassuming-looking door between two much more eye-catching storefronts. A series of symbols had been painted on the door, and they each appeared to be of..
[6:48][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:differing origin.
[6:48][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:*istrin looked at the goods with slight interest until they arrived at the door with symbols
[6:50][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang looked over the symbols to see if any were recognizable.-
[6:50][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:(Roll T'Pang
[6:51][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-walks over to one and runs a gloved hand gnetly over it
[6:51][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:This ist Kzari..oneof our oldest symbol
[6:52][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] "What does it mean?
[6:52][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"One of the symbols seems to be of Kirtascan origin..I can't say for sure.
[6:53][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-to Krinn- itist the symbol for our Medical Korps...for healing in beasic term
[6:54][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"interesting.
[6:54][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "Indeed." *She opened the door and a rush of warm, humid air greeted them before she walked through into the dim light.
[6:55][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang followed her into the dimly lit room-
[6:55][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-stays close to T'Pang eyes sweeping around the room
[6:56][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*As T'Pang walked in, she would see the room before her had a large pool in the center, its surface covered in vegetation. As the Nirizean approached the edge of the pool a figure rose from the..
[6:58][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:depths of the water. It was a woman of clearly amphibious origins, with shiny, bright orange skin patterned with streaks of electric blue. She opened her massive eyes slowly.* "You return," *she..
[6:58][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:croaked.
[6:59][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Elise could see three doors on the walls behind her the pool room.
[7:00][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:*Istrin looked at the fishy
[7:00][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "Indeed. These three will linger here.
[7:00][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-keeps her gaze on the three door lookingto see if any of the doors bear markings of any kind
[7:01][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-steps closer to T'Pang at that
[7:01][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:That vas not agreed t
[7:01][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *She looked at Elise expressionlessly.* "T'Pang stated you would be standing guard.
[7:02][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:*he looked at Elise and nodded
[7:02][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:Und i hadnot yet agree
[7:02][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang looks at Elise-- "it is quite alright, you three remain here.
[7:02][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-side eyes T'Pang- A direct order my Kaptain
[7:02][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Yes a direct order.
[7:03][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-relents with a stubborn sigh- as you vish then
[7:03][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:*istrin glanced at the other doors to see if he could sense past them
[7:06][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang nods to istrin-
[7:07][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "Come, then." *She headed over to the door on the right hand side.
[7:08][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-hisses softly as she follows only as far as she is allowed and then waits at parade rest, her eyes ever vigelant
[7:08][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang followed.-
[7:09][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Frogwoman] "Please... sit. Let the mists of the swamp soothe you." *She motioned to a set of benches near the pool.
[7:09][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *she opened a door and stood to the side to let T'Pang go in.
[7:09][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang entered-
[7:10][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-soft hiss at that yet rmeained where she stopped at parade rest...waiting
[7:10][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*T'Pang stepped into a small room that was notably less humid, thankfully. Son was there already, seated on a wooden bench with his arm slipped out of his uniform, revealing a strange plaster of..
[7:11][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:*Istrin reluctantly moved over to a bench to sit at
[7:11][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:mosses set upon his shoulder. She could see faint black veins under the plaster.* "T'Pang. I'm grateful you agreed to change our meeting place.
[7:12][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T"pang nods-- "Captain Son? Are you not well?
[7:12][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Frogwoman] "Your kind I have not seen before," *she told Istrin, moving up to the edge of the pool.* "From where do you hail?
[7:13][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] *He gave a slight hiss, shifting slightly so as not to disturb the moss.* "It's ironic, no? With all of our technologies, there still are some substances in this universe that must be..
[7:13][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:treated with more primitive means.
[7:14][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"substances? Have you been poisoned?
[7:14][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *she stood on the side of the door opposite Elise, clasping her hands.
[7:15][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:Someplace really far away from here... Have you met many species before
[7:16][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] *He nodded, leaning back as he rubbed at his damp forehead with his sleeve.* "Poison-coated dagger, actually. I think it was my first officer's family blade, which I suppose would have..
[7:16][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:been fitting for him if he'd succeeded in plunging it into my heart. Thanks to that Kzari of yours, though, I was ready when he struck.
[7:17][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *she smirked at something.
[7:18][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Frogwoman] "Many different species have come to this station in the centuries I have lived here. Some used to come more often than others... but that is the nature of this universe.
[7:18][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"oh, i was not aware she had provided you a warning.
[7:19][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:Oh, centuries.. *he eyed the Nirizean then
[7:20][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Was this attack related to our business together or was it of a more personal nature.
[7:21][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] "Now you are. Regardless, this means the scrutiny has increased exponentially... I'm afraid that after we leave here, I will be unable to offer you any further assistance, not directly.
[7:21][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"i understand.
[7:22][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] "We were seen speaking in the bar by a member of my crew loyal to my... now former first officer. I've ascertained they didn't hear the nature of our discussion, but I'm certain that you..
[7:22][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:are familiar enough with my culture to understand that both of our known encounters ending amicably has lead to some questions among my crew.
[7:24][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *She looked back at Istrin enigmatically.
[7:24][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang nods-- "i can see how that would raise suspicions among your people.
[7:25][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] *He nodded, then let out a hiss as his muscles tensed and the moss seemed to writhe on top of his blue skin for a moment before settling down once more.* "Goddess, that stings.
[7:26][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] *He nodded, then let out a hiss as his muscles tensed and the moss seemed to writhe on top of his blue skin for a moment before settling down once more.* "Goddess, that stings.
[7:27][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Frogwoman] "What do they call your kind?" *She asked as she glided around her pond.
[7:30][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] *He sighed, then reached to take a small datastick from the pocket of his jacket and held it up.* "Regardless... I have the information you requested. The route I've planned for you should..
[7:31][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:be the most efficient without going through the Imperium itself.
[7:31][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:I'm a betazoid... *he stared at the wall, keeping a close eye on his captain like a good zoid
[7:32][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Right, I would like to avoid any imperial entanglements.
[7:33][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Frogwoman] "Betazoid," *she repeated.* "Well, I am glad to meet one of your kind, betazoid. I pray to meet more one day.
[7:33][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] "I'm one, too," *she chuckled.
[7:33][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Frogwoman] "Oh! Joyous day, then!" *She clapped her webbed hands.
[7:33][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-to the frog lady- Oh nothing vil stop them once Artesia is avakened once more
[7:34][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:They vill keep komin
[7:35][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] "There is a catch, however. This information is only going to be relevant for the next eighteen days; if you cannot get through the gate before then, you will need to find another route.
[7:35][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-nods to Ish and to Krinn at this
[7:35][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] "The patrols will change and I cannot guarantee you won't run into one.
[7:35][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"understood.
[7:36][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] "Especially with the kind of services this place has to offer.
[7:37][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:You forget the sights too.
[7:39][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] *He paused, watching T'Pang for a long moment.* "I am putting myself in an extremely vulnerable position here, as you can tell. Do not betray my trust, T'Pang. You will not like what..
[7:39][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:happens if you do." *He placed the data stick on the little table next to his chair.
[7:40][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] "Yes, we don't have very many... well. What do you call your kind?
[7:40][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang raises an eyebrow-- "No more of a vulnerable position than I am. I think we both have a lot to lose if the other betrays.
[7:40][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Frogwoman] "You may call me Hegami... it is my name, and I am the last of my kind, so I suppose it functions as both now.
[7:41][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] "So long as we understand one another, and the reasons behind our mutual paranoia." *He smirked.
[7:43][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"i most certainly understand. I am fully aware of the risks we are both taking here and the consequences of failure or betrayal.
[7:43][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *She looked vaguely amused at something.
[7:43][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-remains as stoic as a statue made of marble as she waits
[7:44][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] "Good." *He winced a bit. T'Pang could see the black veins had retreated fully under the moss at that point.* "Did you have any other questions for me?
[7:44][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:*he frowned, staring at the Nirizean again* What's so amusing
[7:44][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "You would not understand.
[7:44][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"No. This data is all we need. We can take things from here.
[7:45][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-soft smirk at that
[7:45][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:No
[7:46][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] "Then I suggest you leave before we do... I will have to stay here for treatment for the next few hours, so you can get a head start and get out of sensor range.
[7:47][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--she nods-- "Yes, that would seem wise. After we leave here, we will return to our ahip and get under way.
[7:47][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "It would require you to know Captain Son in the manner that I do.
[7:49][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang takes the data stick and hides it in her uniform.-- "I wish you success and long life Captain Clarius Son.
[7:49][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:Hmm..*he glanced at Hegami again before falling silent
[7:50][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Son] *He inclined his head.* "May none stand in your way, and may those that do tremble," *he recited.
[7:50][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--with that T'Pang turned and left the room.-
[7:51][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Hegami] *she smiled at Istrin.
[7:51][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang stepped out of the room and back into frog pool central.-
[7:51][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:*istrin got up when she did
[7:51][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--she looks at the others.-- "We are done here.
[7:52][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *She turned and stepped into Son's room after T'pang left, the door shutting behind her.
[7:52][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Lieutenant Istrin contact any personanel who may be off ship and recall them immediatly.
[7:53][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang headed for the elevator.-
[7:53][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-before the Nirizxean entered the room- Nirizean
[7:53][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:On it. *he began making calls
[7:53][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *She stopped to Elise could speak.
[7:53][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*so )
[7:53][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:I must know your name
[7:54][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] "My kind do not use names unless assigned one by our masters.
[7:54][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-nods once with respect- Then hunt vell Protecktor..
[7:55][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Nirizean] *She nodded once and the door closed behind her.
[7:55][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:\
[7:55][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-departed after speaking and went after te others
[7:55][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang climbed onto the lift and held the door waiting for the others-
[7:56][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Hegami] "Goodbye, I hope to see you again one day." *She waved as they left her swamp.
[7:56][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-stops andnods once to Hegami before departingto catch up to the others
[7:56][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*As they stepped out to the hall, they would find Ettore with a young Kzari man in a headlock.* "Hey, guys! Look what I found!
[7:57][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-scowls- Vaht ist this?
[7:57][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"What is th emeaning of this?
[7:57][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Gunter] "Please... she ist... insane!" *He struggled against the mighty little woman.
[7:58][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-eyes the Kzari- Unhand her this instant -smirks
[7:58][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "This Auzherz youth's been following us since we got here, ma'am.
[7:59][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-=goes utterly stiff and her eyes grow cold hearing /that/ name
[7:59][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:..Azuherz
[7:59][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Gunter] "I... am not... touching her!" *He protested.
[7:59][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:Why
[8:00][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Dunno. Hot Kzari we've got with us, maybe?

[8:01][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:*he sighed, reaching into Gunter's mind
[8:02][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:He was following us... But why
[8:03][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Gunter] *He whimpered and went still. Now that he wasn't thrashing as much, they could see he was extremely young, with a scattering of bright red acne near his hairline.
[8:03][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Easy does it... when you don't writhe around you don't get your windpipe crushed. Nice how that works, huh?
[8:04][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-coldly to Gunter- Answer them Junge...und be truthful. She vill hurt ya bad.
[8:04][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:or even vorse..they vill give you to /me
[8:05][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--looks at the young Kzari at that.-
[8:06][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Gunter] *He swallowed, trying to find his words.* "I vas... I vas... hoping you could help me," *he finally managed to sputter out.
[8:06][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Help you in what way?
[8:06][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-scoffs with venom
[8:07][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:Don't lie.. *he gestured to Elise
[8:08][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Gunter] "...I hate it there!" *he broke down, his eyes glossy with tears.* "My family forced me to come vith them... I had to leave everything, und for vhat?!

[8:09][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:murder
[8:10][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-flinches as she sees the terars and takes an unconscience step back 
[8:11][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Do you wish to file for asylum?
[8:11][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Gunter] *He looked miserably at Elise.* "I don't vant to be an officer... but I was too young to say no when they left..." *He looked at T'Pang, swallowing wetly.* "Could you do that?
[8:12][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Yes,
[8:12][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-cant meet the boys eyes and looks to TPang staying as regal and stiff as she can
[8:13][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"But, I need an answer from you.
[8:13][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Gunter] *He took in a few deep breaths to steady himself, then nodded.* "Ja... I request asylum.
[8:14][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Very well then." --she looked at Istrin-- "We will take hiim to the ship. Confine him to quarters for the time being as a general security precaution.
[8:14][DOIC2]Istrin@the5of43:*he nodded* Understood
[8:14][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-looks down at him adding coldly as T'Pang finished- Uf you have lied to these people in any vay..any vay at all..
[8:15][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-lets that trail off
[8:15][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] "We should move quickly if we're going to do that..." *She said, looking down the hallway.* "I think I see another Auzherz officer.
[8:15][DOIC2]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Lets get moving.
[8:15][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Gunter] "I understand..." *he nodded to Elise meekly.
[8:15][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-snaps to the boy- remove your jacket und turn it inside out..remain in our center as we mov
[8:16][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] *She let Gunter go so he could do just that.
[8:16][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Gunter] *he flipped the jacket obediently.
[8:16][DOIC2]Elise@Isis:-nods to T'Pang- they vill be looking for him..ve must hurry My Kaptai
[8:17][DOIC2]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Krinn] "May be wise to just beam directly to the ship.

[8:23][DOIC3]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "I'll get the kid set up in one of our empty rooms. We're becoming a bit of a floating hotel for refugees, huh?
[8:23][DOIC3]Istrin@the5of43:*Istrin immediately moved toward a replicator to begin replicating new clothes
[8:24][DOIC3]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"i will leave our guest to you then, while I get us underway.

[8:38][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--she hands it to Gayle-- "We have to work fast, the data is only good for the next eighteen days.

[8:45][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"No need to thank me. It is my duty to honor asylum claims. I guess I did not need to prompt him to ask for asylum. But, i perceived that is what he wanted and we were short on time.
[8:45][DOIC1]Elise@Isis:-nods- None the less...I thank you
[8:45][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Oh, you definitely had to prompt 'em, he was never gonna spit it out on his own." *She said as she walked onto the bridge.
