Negotiations

 

Duty log: Eagle,James,T.,Lt.Sg.,Tactical officer,U.S.S. Arcadia,NCC-1742-E

 

The Marines have taken up tactical positions around the pleasure center. There has been a new development as Daena,and Torre have been able to leave the center,that leaves Archie being held captive.

 

The data from the suns indicate the problem may become a mute point in several hours as it appears they will go nova. I am still attempting to contact the entity on Aether that has taken the form of Samantha Kent. Perhaps our Csci as well as Torre may be able to shed a bit of light on the confusion going on there. Mr.Pilot and Mr.Servo have apparently tried to negotiate with the holo image and has been unsuccessful to this point.

 

The last communication with Captain Lo Ami has indicated they have met with some success in reducing the power feed to the center and hopes this may prove to be a bargaining chip in negotiations given we can establish communications with the self proclaimed maniac posing as Mr.Kent and obviously considers itself to be the absolute power that now rules Aether.

 

Personal evaluation based on the data we have so far in my opinion this will only lead to possible additional injury or death to either residents there,or possibly our AT as this for lack of a better description Maniac has demonstrated wanton aggression and a distinct lack of care or compassion for any others on Aether.The thing has only demonstrated to this point a desire for power and to dominate without regard to others.

 

I have been going over the data we have garnered on the ship so far and it still may be a possible alternative should any negotiations go bad or prove ineffective. The path of a peaceful resolution to this situation is of course preferred over that of a full assault which would undoubtedly end with more injuries or death.

 

The path of negotiations towards a mutual understanding and agreement that would be beneficial to all parties concerned is the first line of pursuit, It is not however the only and last resort and that Maniac needs to be well aware of that as well.
