RES TALON MISSION BRIEFING 051502.19 - Season 20 -

 

While in hiding from the political unrest on ch'Rihan, the crew of the Talon suddenly receives two unexpected visitors. Judging by their familiarity with t'Mahren, it is safe to assume that they are contacts of hers, but it is yet unclear what news they bring with them and whether they can be trusted.

KhreRiovtRex -> ::Looks across at tMahren and Gaius tr'Argelian:: And au other is?

M_K_tKsa -> ::is probably io of the only ios in the room at ease...mostly because she doesn't believe any agent of disaster would ring the doorbell first....of course she could be wrong too::

tAehjae -> :: keeping her hand on her weapon in its holster just in case as she watches them::

Koga S'Bien -> ::watches the two new visitors, sips his tea::

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::clears his throat, exchanging a glance with the shorter woman:: This is my...partner... S'anra.

EvietMahren -> ::arches a brow::

Lerak trPexil -> :: should be more I'll at ease, bit then recover took this fight out of him ::

EvietMahren -> S'anra... t'Argelian? ::wry grin twitching across her lips::

KhreRiovtRex -> ::looks quizzically:: Vulcan naming convention.....am I to presume she is?

M_K_tKsa -> ::rolls her eyes:: Io of the Dead Ios?

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::looks to Evie, as though to say, now isn't really the time for this discussion::

tAehjae -> :: eyes S'anra watching her closely::

EvietMahren -> ::smirks, shaking her head:: Then I expect the story some other, less perilous time.

EvietMahren -> ::gestures to the room, offering them places to sit::

M_K_tKsa -> ::getting up, crossing the room to pour herself a drink, muttering to herself:: Long story, short on time.

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::bows slightly, moving to seat himself away from the door, facing everyone; S'anra takes position behind him::

EvietMahren -> ::wastes no further time:: I expect you've brought news from... our intermediary.

KhreRiovtRex -> ::the pause and delay pretty much confirmed her guess, but at this point, it didn't seem to matter. She had seen this io once before, so assumed they were part of some deep network Var'lon had known about. That Evie trusted them, said enough for the moment.::

Lerak trPexil -> :: listening in.. ::

Koga S'Bien -> ::Listens as well::

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::nods:: I thought you might prefer a situation report.

EvietMahren -> Yes, please, do tell... What exactly have we walked into?

KhreRiovtRex -> :: takes a step towards them:: Indeed...I would

EvietMahren -> ::seating herself on the arm of a nearby chair, regarding Gaius and S'anra with arched brows::

KhreRiovtRex -> Fhaen....proceed with what au are able to tell us.

M_K_tKsa -> ::taking a sip of her tea, watching cautiously::

tAehjae -> :: steps back leaning against the wall watching their hand movements while she listens to their words::

EvietMahren -> Gaius> Several weeks ago, illness spread through the capitol like wild fire -- thousands upon thousands dead; many high-ranking... and many outspoken opponents of the Praetor.

EvietMahren -> Gaius> There are still ripples filtering through the system, as the illness...::pauses, searching for the right words:: dies out.

M_K_tKsa -> ::blanches, afraid it had something to do with the medications and such that Evie and she had found waaaaaaaaaaaay back when they were in search of something to help the Khre'Riov::

EvietMahren -> S'Anra> The Praetor requested Tal Shiar to investigate. Things unfolded slowly, but they slowly revealed the illness to have been a biological attack. EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::grimaces:: A biological attack for which they implicated key members of Galae, claiming that they were attempting a coup.

EvietMahren -> Gaius> And, while we received your warning ::looks to Evie and Morgana::, we were unable to tie the event to a possible date.

KhreRiovtRex -> ::furrows her brow, that would be exactly what tr'Vren and tr'Merk would try implicating Var'lon and Galae of....::

Koga S'Bien -> ::Reclines in the chesterfield as he rubs his chin in contemplation::

EvietMahren -> S'Anra> Martial law has been declared across the Empire, and those Galae who have remained free are considered... persona non grata, as the Lloahanna might say.

KhreRiovtRex -> (thwaps Koga)

EvietMahren -> Gaius> Those members of Galae who have been able to escape with their ships and crew are meeting resistance in the form of the Tal Shiar and Othan fleets.

KhreRiovtRex -> What news have au on Galae leadership? Who's been captured, or yy'a?

tAehjae -> :: thinks That explains that::

EvietMahren -> Gaius> We are working to confirm our lists. At present, it is believed that your mate and child are free, but in hiding.

KhreRiovtRex -> They bought their way into power fahd, and all a plot to move in and take over when the time was right

KhreRiovtRex -> :: looks to Koga:: au family...they had Tal Shiar ties, did they na?

Koga S'Bien -> ::Nods:: They did. My brother serves in the Tal'Shiar.

EvietMahren -> S'Anra> Our sources seem to indicate there is some... fracturing... now occurring within the Tal Shiar.

Koga S'Bien -> Hmm.

EvietMahren -> S'Anra> The Praetor's coalition seems to be comprised of those who came to rank under the current administration. Those who have been with the organization longer, and have a very different philosophy, seem to be attempting to work from within to help break the situation.

KhreRiovtRex -> It is most likely that those that really wished to serve the Empire and were loyal to the Fvillah...realized that some of their counterparts had been bought by the Othan faction.

EvietMahren -> ::snorts:: Strange bedfellows.

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::looks to Evie:: You've *no* idea.

Lerak trPexil -> :: glad his family is geographically distant from all of this ::

M_K_tKsa -> <m> This is bad.

EvietMahren -> S'Anra> ::looking to the Khre'Riov:: That does seem to be the case.

KhreRiovtRex -> So, it may be possible that Koga's family is safe for the time being...that's a start. To get more information, we may have to have him try to contact his family...na frim here of course....

EvietMahren -> Gaius> We have been attempting to coordinate communications between the various Galae resources as best we can without rousing too much suspicion. Our... intermediary... has been under house arrest since the attack.

KhreRiovtRex -> Fhaen, continue...I was just thinking out loud

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::with a significant look to Evie::

Koga S'Bien -> ::relieved by that::

EvietMahren -> ::swallows hard, nodding:: So I gathered. He is all right, then?

Koga S'Bien -> ::nods::

KhreRiovtRex -> I have io contact as well...I've sent our 'captured' Othan ship, proof in it's logs, of some of the things they were up to

tAehjae -> :: continues to listen starting to feel a little more at ease with the two in front of her::

KhreRiovtRex -> I..... need to ask..... What of the Daise'Khre'Riov? If they've implicated Galae, he would have been their first target?

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::nods:: For now. ::pauses a beat:: He is looking forward to seeing you. ::looks to the Khre'Riov:: Yes, I've... perused the resource. We're attempting to coordinate a way to reveal the discoveries in such a manner to weaken and collapse the coalition's hold.

EvietMahren -> S'Anra> As Gaius mentioned, we believe they are free, but in hiding, possibly aboard one of the free Galae ships. We are attempting to confirm.

M_K_tKsa -> ::stares down at her hands, na happy with any of this news::

EvietMahren -> And so now what? Any brilliant plans?

Lerak trPexil -> :: wondering what their next move would be ::

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::sighs:: At the moment... no. Everything snowballed so quickly, it's been hard to pin anything down. And, with our communications so slow, it only complicates matters.

EvietMahren -> ::pursing her lips, nodding her head, and keeping her own counsel about a few things... at least until she and Gaius can have a quieter chat::

EvietMahren -> S'Anra> We will, of course, get what information we can regarding your families. If you have specific questions, now would be the time to ask so that we might work the answers.

KhreRiovtRex -> So are there any safe havens that we can identify. We can na stay hidden here forever. Eventually the season will change and tTemarr's family will return here.

Lerak trPexil -> :: hope his strange sunken him was safe, and his sister living there ::

KhreRiovtRex -> Is the Fvillah still in power? Actually been seen presiding over anything, or has he been held as well, and only 'issuing edicts'?

EvietMahren -> ::exchanges glances with Gaius:: We have been working that angle... there are a few locations within the capitol that can be arranged as need arises.

KhreRiovtRex -> We are a large group as well. We may need to spread out in smaller teams......

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::nods to t'Rexan:: Ie. At the moment. But it has become an empire in a full sense -- edicts, declarations, and other tyrannical acts.

M_K_tKsa -> ::would like to know about the fate of her own family, especially knowing her rinam (and bondmate) were also in the Galae, and her mother, father and other rinam work in the maenak field to some extent::

M_K_tKsa -> ::but decides to keep her thoughts on them to herself....for now::

tAehjae -> :: looks to tRexan:: rekkhai what is our next move?

KhreRiovtRex -> That, is what we are going to have to decide......

Lerak trPexil -> :: getting tired again...maybe it was the water ::

KhreRiovtRex -> ::turns back to Gaius:: Would it be helpful to send of our crew off to gather more information, and at the same time, they can try to determine what has become of their families from a distance?

KhreRiovtRex -> :: looks at Guius and S'Anra::: I'd assume au would be able to provide some sort of.....work documents or ID papers, that would let some of these officers travel and gather information for us?

Lerak trPexil -> :: getting out of this place would be welcome ::

EvietMahren -> Gaius> Additional contacts in key places might be useful. ::purses his lips, looking to S'Anra and Evie:: We *could* provide documents, but it would take a few days at this point.

KhreRiovtRex -> tr'Pexil is an engineer, I'm sure there is plenty of call with all the fighting for workers that are able to fix things

M_K_tKsa -> I'm honestly afraid to investigate any of my family for fear of endangering them. ::there, she said it:: I will na put them at unnecessary risk.

KhreRiovtRex -> Well, it's not like we have any place we need to be in a real hurry just at the siuren.

Lerak trPexil -> I can make things go...

EvietMahren -> S'Anra> ::looking to Morgana, nods once, understanding:: We will do what we can, and come back when we have the necessary documents.

KhreRiovtRex -> tTemarr, myself and tKsa are too noticeable and will na make good spies....though since Morgana has cut off her braid, she may just fit in with the typical haircut crowd

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::looking to Evie:: If you don't mind, Evie, I... need a word.

KhreRiovtRex -> Koga, he's be a problem, he's known to be on the Talon, he's very recognizable

Koga S'Bien -> I'd agree with that.

EvietMahren -> ::nods to Gaius, holding up a finger to indicate "1 moment" in a Lloahnna manner::

KhreRiovtRex -> but then again, he could show up at home, saying he's left the Talon since he wants to support his family and the Tal Shiar?

M_K_tKsa -> I did very well impersonating a servant one ::primps her new haircut:: Even convinced the Praetor I hit him with a rice bowl, even though it was him that did the throwing.

EvietMahren -> S'Anra> We will need a few additional items to complete the identities.

Lerak trPexil -> And a brother in the Tal Shiar is no help there either.

EvietMahren -> S'Anra> ::looking to Gaius::

KhreRiovtRex -> I'm sure they will all cooperate fully with au.

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::to tr'Pexil:: It would depend on which side his allegiances stand.

tAehjae -> What is it au would need?

M_K_tKsa -> I'm warning au all, I do na have any of the necessary equipment to alter anyone's physical appearance.......short of a pair of hair shears.

Lerak trPexil -> I could use a servant. :: with a smirk ::

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::turns to S'Anra, gesturing to t'Aehjae::

Lerak trPexil -> :: nods at the allegiances comment ::

M_K_tKsa -> ::gives tr'Pexil the evil maenak eye, thinking he should reconsider that comment if he means "her"::

EvietMahren -> S'Anra> ::nods to Morgana:: Shears. Color. Prosthetics. DNA injections...

Koga S'Bien -> I'm afraid I wouldn't know the answer to that. I haven't spoken with him for almost a year now.

EvietMahren -> Gaius> ::nods to Koga, understanding:: We'll see what we can discover.

KhreRiovtRex -> Let us list what is needed, and we'll see what Laeh is able to produce here vs what we'll need to obtain.

tAehjae -> ::to S'Anra:: How are we to gather those?
