Negotiations between Starfleet and the Delta Alliance

[Daniel Reeves]

*near the door picking at his uniform was the Evolution's Chief Science Officer*

{this uniform is so uncomfortable }

Here I am Captain, better late than never, huh?
*takes his seat*

OFF: thanks Dhante http://expansionfleet.sparks.priorweb.be/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

[Ardwyad]

"Ah yes, captain Sanchez. I understand we discovered you at a crucial moment. We were aware of activity nearby the Quantum Singularity Network, and decided to have a closer look. That was when we found you."
*He glances around and then looks at Sanchez again.*
"Well, hmm... Mr. Sanchez, there is one request I must ask of you. It may seem insignificant for you, but for us it is of great importance. You must know that the Quantum Singularity Network is sacred territory of our two supreme gods: Qughan, the God of Light, and Savarin the Goddess of Life. In other words, the Great Light and the Great Creator. There are many historical legends surrounding them, which I will tell you about at a later time perhaps, but the important thing is that they bring harmony in the universe, especially to our people and our allies in the Delta Alliance. Angering the gods of the Q.S.N. may result in disaster for us all."

[Vorak]

*Vorak raises an eyebrow.*
"The Torrans? Quite unusual. Our last encounter with the Torrans, though it has been quite some time ago, was not very... friendly. They seem a rather hostile species, though they did not attack us."

[Will Karelia]

"I must admit, this technology is very impressive indeed. Is there any modifications that need to be made for our ships to utilize these warp gates?"

[Randall Sanchez]

*Sanchez smiles.*
"Well... it's a small galaxy after all."

[Daniel Reeves]

*after taking his drink he immediately felt intoxicated and tried to complete his part quickly before the effects of the Razanis took it's toll*

*He takes a bit of salt from the box, and puts it in the hand of Dalon, who sat next to him.

"The salt, for the bitterness of life."

*Then he waits, while Dalon eats the salt. Next, he fills
the glass of Dalon with the Razanis*

"The Razanis, to rejoice the soul."

*Then he gives the glass to Dalon, so he can drink it.*

"I am the past and the future. And the future commands. Be my friend for the present."

*Dalon accepts the glass and takes his drink*

*and once he finished the lines he almost past out drunk on the desk but managed to keep a mild composure while still getting very dizzy and did not want to say anything*

OFF: your turn Dalon  http://expansionfleet.sparks.priorweb.be/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

[Koloblicin]

*Koloblicin takes the salt and eats it. The glass of Razanis is awaiting him on the table. He picks it up and hesitantly drinks it.*

"Wow, this is some strong stuff... whoa..."

*Kolo feels very woozy, but manages to continue. He places the salt in Karelia's hand*

"The salt, for the bitterness of life."

*He then pours Karelia a glass, almost dropping the goblet. After the salt and goblet are in Karelia's hands Kolo starts singing the rest of the Klingon opera.*

Oh, Razanis, nice de greaser...

[Vorak]

*Vorak is slowly becoming himself again, and looks at Karelia.*
"Admiral, are your intentions to accompany the ships to these Temples of Sordinan?"

[Nick Brooks]

*Walks in with the away team*

Captain, Admiral, sorry we are late, have we missed anything?

[Dhante Tehoral]

*Officer Tehoral arrives in the embassy after finishing docking procedures and sits down in the seat next to where Ragolis was sitting*

Chief Ardwyard, I am sorry for being late.

This certainly is an interesting meeting, these people look so different from us, it is unusual to see new species.

*Behind him a Starfleet walked in pulling his shirt top down to make it fit nicer*

OFF: I got you started Dan

[Randall Sanchez]

*Shifts uneasily on his seat, when Ardwyad looks at him seriously, as if he had done something terribly wrong, but he had no clue what it could be.*
"I understand your... religious convinctions, Chief Ardwyad. But I don't see how this has anything to do with these negotiations." *Shrugs.* "Surely no disaster has befallen us, so I'm sure they're not angry about anything."

[Ardwyad]

"That is true, and it is why they joined our Delta Alliance at such a late time only. For many centuries, there has been civil war among the Torrans, one leader overthrown for another to take over to continue their wars. Not so long ago, a new leader has united them in a peaceful way, and the Torran people are not unhappy for that, they were all weary of war. But there were those who were against the decision of peace and joining the Delta Alliance, and they retreated to what we now call Torran Exile space, which we do not consider part of the Delta Alliance."

[Ardwyad]

"Allow me to explain how it works, admiral. That way you will understand better how our technology of transportation works. When in use, a graviton surge is directed through the projectors onto the hull of the ship. This serves to propel it into a layer of subspace known as null space, where it stays for a period of time, often a matter of hours, during which time it traverses vast distances of 'real' space. The catapult is powered by a tetryon reactor and has immense arms which support graviton projectors.  Six projectors are supported on each arm, which when activated produce a blue field that encompasses a ship before it is transported into null space.  The vessel, which is positioned between the arms, is held by the beams and then 'catapulted' into subspace.  The graviton field can be set at different levels to determine the distance a ship is transported. In other words, admiral, any ship with a normal structural integrity is capable of using this catapult without any need of additional modifications to the ship itself."

[Vorak]

"I can tell you, Mr. Ardwyad, that the U.S.S. Voyager has succeeded in their mission to find their way back home. The ship and her crew is now back in the Alpha Quadrant after a journey of seven years, and everyone is well. And most likely, we must thank this Mr. Tash and his Null Space Catapult project for that."
