Adagio 6/13

[10:18] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: Star Trek Adagio theme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TyB9t7hOVU

[10:21] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: The images opens with The Adagio and Yukikaze in tight formation..making a slow arcing path around an ominiuos steller metalic fields..that flashing with electrical discharge and whipsy trails black

[10:22] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: shadows...  Talia look out the ready room window and she stares as they cirlce it..watching...   music for the scene  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSrKEv9s6pw

[10:22] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: Talia records he thoughts in her personal log...

[10:25] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: =^= Captain's Log, Stardate 97281.63, the Adagio and Yukikzae are now n a wide arching course travling around this massive....-gasps softly as she watches the sinze nd immesity of the sotrm beyond her

[10:26] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: ready room's window- ...the anomoly is of immense size.....filld with dark eneergy and swirling gravictic forces loaded with metal and ore....it is almost humbling to be evne this close to such an obj

[10:27] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: When i was a young ensign...my ship came into contact with a doomsday machine...we had when the Adagio arrived out here....both of those machines....

[10:28] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: -awed somewwhat- To see something you once thought massive and devestating ... and to now be confonrted by something that could swallow /both/ whole...

[10:28] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: ...its humbling.

[10:28] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: We are nder orders to investigate and report back...the object is moving..abv space normal speed...barely just abve a drft

[10:28] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: But it is moving

[10:30] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: My concern is ho long until this monstersitiy hits a habitable system...I put Eren on gathering what data she could ...as of ye I am not hzzarding eitherthe Lady A nor Yukikzae until i get further

[10:31] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: data on just what this might be...we ar waiting ot hear back fromt he citadel...it seems we are also dealing with a messback there too concerning what is being reported to us as the actions of rogue

[10:32] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: Kzari elements....-snarls- rogue elements...the Citadel has repulsed such an attack as has the Sentinel...though the latter took heavy losses

[10:32] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: Until we know more about what we are facing here and i hear something about what is going on behind us...we wait...

[10:33] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: -another pause- ...it is ...like standing over a tear in the fabric of universe...or the ever devouring maw of something out of a pure nightmare...

[10:34] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: What is this....a being...a left over weapon from the last war....or a natural event...wel this is why we are out here....to explore and discover..

[10:34] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: Talia out

[10:34] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -closes her log and hugs her PADD to her chest her eyes still riveted beyond her window-

[10:37] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= Captain to Eren

[10:37] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: --monitors the anomaly for any communictions signals.--

[10:37] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: =/\= "This is Lieutenant Eren, science officer extraordinaire, how may I direct your call young lady?"

[10:38] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He frowns at the tempest in their viewscreen, rubbing his forehead.*

[10:39] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: --looks at the main viewer-- "it is certainly impressive."

[10:39] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= -chuckkles- Well I see then...what have you got for me Miss Extraordinaire?

[10:40] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] Its a monster....like looking at a typhoon or hurricane

[10:40] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Feels a bit more... ominous than that, Commander."

[10:40] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: =/\= "I'm afraid there's not much to update you on, ma'am.  The sensors can't make heads or tails of any of this, and none of the metallic objects trapped within the storm have been ejected by it as..

[10:40] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "whatever it is, it hardly seems like it is in any hurry to get anywhere."

[10:41] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= o ejecta of any kind at all?

[10:41] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: far as we can observe.  Some force seems to be keeping it all bound together."

[10:41] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] The Razorbear sleeeps where it wishes

[10:41] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "gravity?"

[10:42] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: I was thinking the same thing Konmal.. I rather prefer this current state...

[10:42] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= Maggie just stole my question Eren....is it Gravity?

[10:42] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: =/\= "None that we've observed.  And our sensors can't penetrate it... we couldn't even be certain it was there if not for the fact that we have it on visual."

[10:42] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: =/\= "I couldn't tell you one way or the other.  Gravity seems the obvious answer, but I can't confirm it."

[10:43] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren paused a moment.*

[10:43] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Could also be some form of uncontrolled, almost natural telekinesis... but that would require -someone- to ocntrol it."

[10:43] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: =/\= "It's as if it's... there, and also not there simultaneously."

[10:43] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "maybe it is one of those cosmozoan, space fairing life forms..."

[10:43] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: (To emanate* it)

[10:44] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: =/\= "A multiphasic metallic storm, maybe?"

[10:44] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= Okies Eren thank you..keep at it..Ill be out directly

[10:44] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: =^= That name works for me....but lets see if we can add some substane to it..Talia out

[10:45] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: =/\= "Yes ma'am..."  *She began setting up their sensors for a multiphasic scan.*

[10:46] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -walks over to her desk and sets down her PADD and takes a final sip of her now warmed tranya-

[10:46] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: --turns to look at the door to the captain's ready room. anticipating Talia's entrace and possible PADD throw.--

[10:46] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Maybe someone is? Could be they're just flying under your scope ankos.

[10:46] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "There is a -ton- of telepathic interference that may mask someone, true."

[10:47] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -looked up at the floatingholo-display in the center of the room  currently running and showing the mapping runs of the two ships around th beast-

[10:47] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "But that interference does not seem like it is actually being given off, and it is... incredibly hard to obfuscate yourself like this.'

[10:48] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well, there's also the very real possibility that we're ants in this sense..."

[10:48] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Yeah..."

[10:48] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: I don't like being stepped on.

[10:48] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Bite them hard if they try then, Kodor."

[10:49] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Not even in high heeled klingon boots?"

[10:50] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he stared at the back of his head*

[10:50] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: I do not think it would be any less painful.

[10:50] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She initiated her new scans, in the off-chance that they could make any sense of nonsense.*

[10:50] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It was a reference to his preferences, Mr. Sevuk..."

[10:50] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Ankos, no..."

[10:50] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: If we cannot make much headway in direct scanning..perhaps something left its wake.

[10:51] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -strides out onto her bridge and turns left nstead of going up the ra mp this time-

[10:51] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "whatever it is, It does not seem to be communicating in any way I recognize."

[10:51] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: --turns and looks at the captain.--

[10:51] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Sereya,, out best estimate show it is on slow drift away from the system.

[10:51] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It is still giving out hate and anguish... but it still doesn't seem like... -directed- communication. Or real communication even."

[10:52] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -walks right by Eren after patting her chair and over to Maggie who she hands off the PADD to and then continus up towards her command center- See tha tis logged in Maggie will you?

[10:52] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "We can try and measure the impact it has on normal space, yeah."

[10:52] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "yes ma'am."

[10:52] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to nkos- More like someone grumbling ot themselves as they float on by in a big pool?

[10:53] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smiles and nods to Xae- XO

[10:53] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: --breathes a sigh of relief that she wasn't hit in the head with a PADD again. rubs the spot where it hit as if reliving the trauma.--

[10:53] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Captain...

[10:53] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Not even that... Even grumbling has somewhat of a... tangent."

[10:53] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he grinned down to peebs*

[10:54] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: More like a room full of haters...a conventional hall?

[10:55] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: -Leona takes a rigid stance next to Xae as she looks on the proceedings-

[10:55] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -narrows her eyes- What if we are just standing outside of a door to that conventional hall...

[10:56] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I'm not sure I want tickets to that convention."

[10:56] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: feeling the mumerings from those inside...closer to that?

[10:56] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I... don't know, Captain. As I said, it seems more... random."

[10:56] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Neither would I eren...neither would I

[10:56] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Like wind or something."

[10:56] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Permission to alter course Captain...to positions us in what we believe is its trailing wake.

[10:56] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -shivers at the mention of such a wind-

[10:57] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods- Do so Xae...though a part of me is of a mind to get into its path... but we can go with the wake as an initil approach

[10:57] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "In its path, it'd probably just run us over."

[10:57] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Perhaps, perhaps not

[10:57] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Thank you...just trying to see if it leaving mark we can measure in space outside it...

[10:57] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I think it may not even notice us. But I could be wrong."

[10:58] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Konmal...giving you and altered course now...

[10:58] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I agree Susan is going to what some kind of answer beyond 'its like its there but its not'

[10:58] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Does a storm notice the boat it capsizes, Ankos?"

[10:58] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Konmal] Aye commander -looks to his console-

[10:58] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Konmal -> Acknowledged...adjsting now..it will be 20 minutes until we are in our new position.

[10:58] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: No but the search party does..

[10:58] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -sets her jaw- if it is indeed just a storm

[11:00] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That is what I was saying, Eren..."

[11:00] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Steady as she goes Helm....Eren what for any micro changes..anythng at all as we move

[11:00] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Ankos you as well -pats his shoulder-

[11:01] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Sins keep watching the skies....with these so called Rogue Kzari running around i dont want any surprise guest stars tonight

[11:01] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Hey, if I get any reading other than five question marks on my screen, I'll let you know."

[11:01] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Nods to Talia.*

[11:01] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -chuckles- Please do Eren...please do

[11:02] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: We are at the very least getting visual recordings of this thing?

[11:02] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Aye captain, bouncer duties it is..

[11:02] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: No one..not even VIP's get by you tonight Deadeye..understood?

[11:02] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "And the scans aren't even synching up.  They're fragmented.  My money's definitely on multiphasic."

[11:03] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Yes ma'am.

[11:03] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: So it is trulyhere and not here..for real this time?

[11:03] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Eren may have a point, Captain. What I'm getting may be... reflections."

[11:04] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: A cross dimenstinal echo?

[11:04] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I can't say with certainty since, you know, scanners, but that's the most likely scenario."

[11:05] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Incredible...-stil awe by the size as they travel along its length-

[11:06] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Some fragments of my scans aren't returning... I wonder, if we could try and send a message to one of the locations that's only absorbing and not contributing any information?"

[11:07] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He looks to Talia at that.*

[11:10] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Not a bad ida Eren....find me the best possible spot to do so

[11:10] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Did we have a message in mind, captain?

[11:10] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Maggie prep a simple initial contact greeting

[11:10] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Truth be told, there's no way of knowing we hit it with how frequently it's churning, but I'll do what I can."

[11:11] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Best...guess then -smirks-

[11:11] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He takes a sigh of relief that he's not forced to do telepathic messaging.*

[11:11] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Yes...yes i do Xae..I think I am going to try..a hello

[11:11] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She looked over the scan results, comparing them to try and assess the most consistant sensor dark spot from their scans.*

[11:12] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Maggie let me knw when you are ready to record

[11:12] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Okay... I think I found one..."

[11:13] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "i should be ready now captain."

[11:13] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Okay mark as best as you can Eren

[11:13] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Or... shit, Maker damn it... just record your message, I'll try and get it ready by the time you are."

[11:14] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "Do we want to record a message or use the library of standard greetings in the computer?"

[11:15] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Just record this Razor =^= Greetings....this Captain PhellTalia zh'Kor commanding the Federation starship Adagio. We are currerntly traveling alongside and wish to initial conversation...please

[11:15] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: respond. -nods to Maggie as she ends it- Send that

[11:15] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: --records that--

[11:16] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "sending it now, captain." --presses send.--

[11:17] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Set it up on a repating cycle for now Maggie

[11:17] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "aye ma'am, it is one a repeating loop...no reply so far though."

[11:18] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Stand by to shift it to erens target of choice when she finds it

[11:18] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Mr Sevuk all high security area of th ship ar elokked down yes?

[11:19] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Yes captain.

[11:19] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I have no way of knowing if any of this is going to work, Captain, this guess is as good as any."

[11:19] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods- Works for me..send it there too Maggie

[11:20] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Eren- As th humans say..onenever knows until we try

[11:21] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "It's basically a shout out to the void, and..."  *She paused, sitting up in her chair.*  "Captain, I'm detecting motion and heat from the edge of the cluster ahead."

[11:22] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smirks- Well Talia...poke  bear long enough

[11:22] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "The heat's constant, usually means engine thrust."

[11:22] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Wow..."

[11:22] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Are we in visual range? PPut it up on one of the displays Eren

[11:23] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "We don't have a visual, but it appears to be approaching us."

[11:24] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: -the view screen magnifies what is believed to be the area...nothing but the metal storm is seen-

[11:24] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: -the view screen magnifies what is believed to be the area...nothing but the metal storm is seen-

[11:25] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Shields up....helm keep pace in the wake....

[11:25] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Xae- We woke someone up it seems

[11:26] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he double checked to see if the shields were up, keeping a closer eye on his own sensors*

[11:26] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: On screen on the out edge on the lower left...the Yukikaze can been seens setting up a forward screening posisiton to interecpt anything inbound on Adagio.-

[11:27] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Appearantly...

[11:27] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Xae- well we did say hello

[11:28] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I can sense no changes so far, Captain."

[11:28] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Sin coordinate with the Yuki in case this goes sideways

[11:28] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods to Ankos- Well..we got something s attention...and it sees to be good at hiding

[11:28] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Anjkos- What do you think?

[11:28] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: Tense minutes pass and then the first glimpse of the contact makes it way projecting itself from the metal storm-   https://i.pinimg.com/originals/ba/48/eb/ba48eb29b295f107746ab1671f1e8b46.jpg

[11:29] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That... is that one of the Chantry's "flying cathedrals"?"

[11:29] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: -the music for the scene comes on for the audience-  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJhtIv_Yd5w

[11:30] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "We may need a bigger ship."

[11:30] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Maker.. *Sin quickly put in a request to the Yuki for a link*

[11:30] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: The design seems similar...but....Lorvea

[11:30] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It looks like a temple or a castle just sprouted weapons... and many of them."

[11:31] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I am beginning to understand why the Kzari have thos big command ships

[11:31] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Yeah..."

[11:31] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: That is a flying fortress however

[11:31] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: a weapon

[11:32] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: And it came from -that-..

[11:32] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Maggie keep sending our signal

[11:32] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods to Sin's comment-

[11:32] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Mh, who knows how many more of them can be in there."

[11:32] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "aye, ma'am I keep sending...but, they don't seem interested in talking to us."

[11:32] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "That's probably not even their biggest one if that's the case."

[11:33] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: [Tracey] Here is a thought..what if this is a small patrol ship??

[11:33] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Not helping, Commander..."

[11:34] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Helm move us out to meet them

[11:34] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he shook his head, collecting as much tac data as he could in the meantime* Could be building them inside as well.

[11:34] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Alter course and heading

[11:34] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Can we all hope really hard  the crew is like.. bunnies or something, and hope that our faith makes it true?"

[11:35] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Sensor readings are coming in solid... shielded, armoured and armed with alloys very similar to..."  *She raises her brows slightly.*  "Kzari... with Unity circuitry..?"

[11:35] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Rabbits are actually quite violent animals Ankos

[11:35] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Really?"

[11:35] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Avoid the holo-program called Watership Down

[11:35] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "...Maker... Captain, there's thirty thousand life signs on that ship... most of them are showing signs of being Kzari-Unity hybrids..."

[11:35] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Yes, Captain..."

[11:35] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Thirty thou....-looks back to it- Can we id the species Eren

[11:36] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: So eithr kitbashed from Kzari wreckae and left over Unity wreckage..or an off shoot of both races

[11:37] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he glanced at sevuk briefly*

[11:37] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I am feeling it..."

[11:37] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Kzari and Unity, Captain.  We'd need to do more in-depth scans from a more personable proximity to get a species ID."

[11:38] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "They are not the ones giving off hate, no... I think they were using the hate cloud as a cover. They are determined. Their faith is... dauntless." *He speaks in awe.*

[11:38] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I don't think I have felt faith like this from anyone not an avynei."

[11:38] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "More fucking zealots, just what we need."

[11:40] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "If those are -our- zealots, I welcome them with open arms."

[11:41] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Bigger ships.. *he stated again*

[11:42] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Can you imagine that thing going off on a chantry space station?"

[11:42] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Would probably disintegrate it."

[11:48] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -sets her jaw- as we did to a majority of the Tzenkehi Station Ankos

[11:48] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: and what we couldve done to that Chantry base as well

[11:49] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I am never impressed with such size...awed maybe but never cowed

[11:49] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Lets get size, shape power levels...al that we can...Maggie send a mesage burst back to the citdael

[11:50] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "You can be the biggest in the universe, but if you don't have the skill to take advantage of your size, no one's going home satisfied."

[11:50] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: and open a hailing frquency to our friends

[11:50] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Exactly Eren

[11:50] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Take that to the bank from a 'zhen'

[11:50] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Wait... do Zhens have... you know?"

[11:50] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: No

[11:50] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "aye ma'am sending message burst back to Citadel.."

[11:50] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Oh."

[11:51] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Ankos, you don't just ask someone about their parts..."

[11:51] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "The four genders thing is really super confusing, no offence."

[11:51] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: a zhen is the last in the chain counselor..we are setup to recieve

[11:51] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: they're approaching us, ten minutes eta.

[11:51] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smirks- three lovers as a norm...why would i ever tak offense to that Ankos

[11:51] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: --sends message burst.--

[11:52] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He chuckles.* "Sounds like a bit too much work sometimes, really."

[11:52] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Open a hailing frequency...helm close the distance between us

[11:52] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -sly smirk to the counselor- not for a zhen

[11:52] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -winks to him-

[11:52] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I can only admire such dedication."

[11:52] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "hailing frequency open capain."

[11:52] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Our dedication is..daunting

[11:53] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: Both Adagio and Yukikaze is unison glide forward to greet the arriving vessel...

[11:53] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: =^= Unidentified starship this is Captain PhellTalia zh'Kor of the Adagio...we again bring you greetings, to whom am I addressing?

[11:54] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Konmal- continue to close the gap

[11:55] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "recieving a message, shall I put it on screen?"

[11:56] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -waits a moment and after sharing a look with Xae then nods- Please do so Maggie

[11:56] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: --puts it on screen.--

[11:57] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -turns her eyes to the screen-

[11:58] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: On the main screen appears a Kzari woman that clearly has machine integration in her adored in elebarate armor    https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D6NdSjHWAAAZ_jb.jpg

[11:58] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren's eyebrows lifted slightly in mure appreciation.*

[11:58] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *mute ))

[11:59] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: Kzari woman?  -> This is Canoness Selena Anga, commanding the Purifier.  You are approaching a holy and hazardous site.

[11:59] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Kzari woman?  -> This is Canoness Selena Anga, commanding the Purifier.  You are approaching a holy and hazardous site.

[12:00] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -bows her head to her- Greetings Canoness, we meant no intrustion.....may we know the nature of the hazrzard located here

[12:02] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -steps forward and to the right some as she asks her question stadning now before her XO and Leona as she waits for an answer-

[12:03] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Canoness Anga ->  You already know what this is,,,it is the remains of the fleet that battled here before the Great Fall.

[12:04] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I see...and what we feel here is the echoes of the fallen anger and hate from that time

[12:06] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Canoness Anga -> In part...in theirh anguish and despair..unanswer hopes for vengence and redeption have been twisted over time by Chaos.

[12:07] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods- as is expected...

[12:08] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I am curious Canoness...why would you assume we knew this was a result of that?

[12:09] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: This is our first recorded encounter with this anomaly

[12:09] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Canoness Agna -> You are a Seeker...searching for answers..often from the bones of the long departed.

[12:09] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Farly acurate if dark defnition of our purpose but yes

[12:10] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: We seek to learn and perhaps discover how to avoid future tradgedies such as this

[12:12] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "We are receiving a data package back from the Citadel from what we sent them earlier."

[12:12] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Canoness Agna -> such discussions are best done in person...not through void..if you to continue this discussion, the do so on the Purifier.

[12:12] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods- Thank you Maggie

[12:13] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to the canoness- I accept your invitation and wish to bring some of my other seekers with me..who undoubtibly have many questions themselves

[12:13] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: with your permissio n of course

[12:15] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Canoness Agna -> I will assign a Sister Superior to be you envoy and escort to coordinate with.   Purifier out.

[12:16] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: The main screen cuts back to the collasal vessel Adagio is now near to..

[12:16] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods to that as she fades- Direct..blunt....they are almost Andorian

[12:16] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Does anyone else get really nervous when a ship is called 'the Purifier?'"

[12:16] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Yes I do...expecially with Kzari dna

[12:17] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: However they have not acted hostile so we are to be their gusts

[12:17] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Mh... so long as we don't end up in a Kzarity Inquisition."

[12:17] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Ada -> I have some return data from what we transmitted to the Citadel whenever you are ready captain.

[12:18] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Go ahad Ada..lets see wha youve got

[12:19] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Agreed Eren...-still to eren- gather waht you need Ill want you there

[12:19] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Ankos you as well

[12:19] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Sevuk a two man detail and yourself

[12:19] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Yes, Captain."

[12:19] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Maggie with me as well

[12:20] [DOIC1] Peebles@Demoncherub: "right, captain. i got your back."

[12:20] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Xae- You and Leona are welcome to tag along

[12:20] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Hoooboy..."  *Eren signed out of her console.*

[12:20] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Ada -> Eirene's record indicate the vessel belongs to a militant faction of the Kzari known as Adepta Sororitas.

[12:21] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Hold up Eren...we have more data to digest first though i appriceiate your eagerness

[12:22] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: The Sisterhood....loosely translated yes?

[12:22] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren looked at the camera and just STARED.*

[12:22] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Ada -> The foundation of the Adepta Sororitas order was several millenia before the Great Fall...and the order completely seperated form the Kzari 50 years prior to the opens battles of the conflict

[12:23] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Yes captain.

[12:24] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods- So they seperated from a Kzari nation that was allied to the Dark...that...hopeful

[12:24] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Ada -> The Adepta Sororitas were know to be most women..not exclusive to Kzari..but the majority are...the had strong ties with Unity..so much they fully integrated body and technology.

[12:25] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods as she listens-

[12:26] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Ada -> Status of Adepta Sororitas during the Great Conflict and the millions of years after, unknown..only rummored sitings, nothing confirmed until now.

[12:26] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Ada -> That is the end of the data package.

[12:28] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Well ammend it now Ada..we can cofirm at least this one ship is keeping watch over this 'holy site'

[12:30] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: So posit....their tech allows them to atrol within this site...they didnt make it nor control it?

[12:30] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to her crew-

[12:30] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I think what we're seeing is more like... the monastary overlooking an ancient graveyard."

[12:31] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Only the graveyard is in constant transit, so the monastary follows."

[12:32] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods- I agree witht hat asseessment Eren...gods what a fight that had to have been

[12:32] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -shudders some-

[12:32] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Not one I want to imagine."

[12:32] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Hopefully inside their ship Ankos...there wil be shields to keep out the distant fear and ahte

[12:32] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: with ou tthe effects of our salvation protoculs

[12:33] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I don't need the shields. At that proximity, their faith will drown that out."

[12:33] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I don't know.  Some religions would say that enduring the suffering is an act of faith and rememberance of the past they seek to memorialise."

[12:33] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -winces- Tell you what get through this..ill toss in an extra three days for yo uand Ynera to fin a nice quiet grotto and decompress

[12:34] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Only one way of finding out Ankos.. *he nodded*

[12:34] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods- Back then such was a way to rememebr the past when so little could read or write eren

[12:34] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Much appreciated, Captain."

[12:34] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -pats him on the shoulder supportively-

[12:34] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Just hang in there

[12:35] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: All right...options and opinons all...lets here em before we go over -looks around the bridge-

[12:35] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He nods to Talia, then rubs his chin.* "Never encountered these sisters before, but they seem to be the direct opposite of the Chantry ones. Let us hope their beliefs are the opposite too and we can>

[12:36] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Make a new ally."

[12:36] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I don't like zealots.  Blind devotion to any ideal scares me.  See what they want, but be wary."

[12:38] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Funny i was just thinking the same as both of you....caution is needed when dealing with any zeaotry...but i dont think these ladies are hostile

[12:38] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: ....eventhe Kzari never made an open invitation first

[12:38] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: The Unity does not seems to be a group that would have endored zealotry.

[12:38] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I agree Xae

[12:39] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Its why i didnt see them as hostile..

[12:39] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Maybe not the Unity.  But the Kzarity?  We'll see."

[12:39] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Indeed...deed never words -nods to Eren- its the Andorin way....but i do hve hope

[12:39] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: as long as communication is an option....middle ground can always be found

[12:40] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Their manner seems to indicate that have some knowledge of us prior.

[12:40] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Indeed....which has me curious..very curious

[12:40] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "We haven't exactly been subtle out here."

[12:41] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: No....i think she meant something more than our reputation

[12:41] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: True..but I think we would had noticed if that vessel was tailing us...

[12:41] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -shakes her head as she tries to process all of this-

[12:41] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "It wouldn't have to.  We were darting all over trying to scan that thing."

[12:41] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "We probably flew over it like seven times."

[12:41] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Eren be sure whatever data you collect on their unity compenants..flag Lieutenant Stingray's resarch

[12:42] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Exactly...is seems different than reputation..or just knowledge of our afflication.

[12:42] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods-

[12:42] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Wel lright now what we have here is another first contact mission

[12:43] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: so lets get our diplomatic faces on...and be civil and lets go meet the new neighbors ...once the are ready for us that is

[12:43] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: I wonder if the missing Kzari vessels had encoutered the Purifier.

[12:43] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Or did some other fate befall them?

[12:44] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: A question i am sure to put to our new friend the Canoness

[12:44] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: I'm struggling to believe that they would even bother with just two ships.

[12:45] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Indeed..though partially explain the lack of concerted search efforts made...

[12:46] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I woul dhave to agree...they showe little interest in us ....until we found a way to poke them with a hail

[12:46] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Wonder if they have Monastery wine..."

[12:46] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Somehow i am wondering....if they are  aware of us...surel they would know the kzari of today are allies to the renwd alliance

[12:47] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "They are kzari. They will have monastery beer."

[12:47] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -chuckles- Temperance Lieutenant

[12:47] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -hangs her head and smiles at ankos comment-

[12:47] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I'm just saying."

[12:48] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: My family...-smiles to Xae some-

[12:48] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: -hmphs-

[12:48] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks over to Leona-

[12:49] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Leona -> you look to have a buring question.

[12:49] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: What is it you know of the Sisterhood...you can share with us before we head over

[12:54] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Leona -> They are known to me.  My role at present is to observe, Sionesse would not wish me to interfere with your own experiences and discoveryy.

[12:55] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smirks but nods- It is the deal we made with her...fair enough

[12:55] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: We shall continue to impress then -nod sto her crew-

[12:55] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Leona -> Perhaps afterwards, I may share more.

[12:56] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I look forward to it then

[12:57] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Plus i have to admit...i look forward to seeing the inisde of that ship

[12:57] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Leona -> It will be a sight, to be certain.

[12:58] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: All right Sin call up the relief officers for those going on the away team...everyone going..gear up and gra some food before we go

[12:59] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Weapons on stun only

[12:59] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "We should bring the Sisters a pie, too."  *She nodded.*  "It is Pie Day."

[12:59] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Yes, Captain...' *He turns his look to Sevuk to start the peer pressuring of him to go into the lift.*

[12:59] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks to ankos= Treat this I take as if we wre onour way to church counselor?

[12:59] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -snaps her fingers- Do so Eren

[12:59] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Pick a good match to Kzari diet needs

[12:59] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: The extro music again and the Adagio is dwarfed near the Purifier as the episode ends  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJhtIv_Yd5w

[12:59] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Likely, Captain. No bare shoulders adn bad words."

[1:00] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Skirt at the proper length counselor.. *he nodded at him, calling the replacements for those going*

[1:00] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Mr Kodor see to it mr Sevuk get somenourishment

[1:01] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: I'll make sure he gets something in before he leaves with you. *he nodded*

[1:02] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: and Eren dont forget...amake it a good pie from chef

[1:02] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Chef doesn't make anything but good pies, Captain."

[1:04] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Very very true Eren...tha tis why im glad im not making the call

[1:05] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Delegation is the mark of a good leader, ma'am."

[1:05] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods- Then go get some chow people before we get calle early to church

[1:06] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren got up, heading for the lift.*

[1:06] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He followed after Eren.*

[1:07] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he looked at Sevuk* Sevuk.

[1:08] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Commander.
