"Only if you will share this bottle of Kanar (sp) that I brought from a very good
distiller back on Cardassia Prime...." the new comer replied handing over a bottle of
the prized beverage.

"Well, there was an actual reason that warrented someone coming out all this way,
and when I learned of it. I, naturally, insisted on being the one to go. Why would I
pass up an oppertunity to visit with an old friend...? Right... It is good to see you
again..." he replied in a manner that led the other to believe that something was
afoot.

> "Ahhh, but let us take care of business first. We can then take the time to enjoy
>each other's company once the work is out of the way." The Cardassian
> Amabassador paused for a moment. The mood in the air changed with the pause.
> "Really, Durak. What brings you here?"
>
"Well the primary official reason is that there are some security and
intelligence reports that Central Command believes that you should have. These
reports had to be carried by a courier. I can just leave those with you. However,
there is another matter... the incident on DS9. How are things going on this end?"
