Dais was surprised ot find the files inaccessible. To him, that would
indicate that the Bajorans had some inside help in the Federation that were
interested in the coverup. Dais tried to get some information to identify
why the files had been sealed and by whom.
The why was not an answer that Dais would find from the computer logs.
However, he did see that the person authorizing the lock out was the Bajoran
Ambassador himself. Somehow, that did not surprise him.
Dais then connected with the Bajoran mainframe and put in a request for the
diplomats files through them. The request was put to the attention of Mr.
Rivik in the hopes that there working relationship would allow him to gain
access to the files.
A message came back that the request would take time to process. And time
it did take. A good half hour. But when it did come back, the message was
less than helpful.
The data file included general biographical information and educational
information. Nothing out of the ordinary. The courier was a young man, in
his late 20s from a semi-promenient family- which explained his choice to
get into the diplomatic service. He had a good academic record, majoring in
military and political history of Bajor. Information about his personal
life was convienently missing. Afterall a diplomatic courier would have a
certain level of clearance and a lifestyle background check is required for
that. The impression that what was sent was what would be given to
outsiders- aka the records had been cleaned before sending.
Dais was disappointed that was all he was able to get out of his ally, but
somehow he was not all that surprised. He checked the chrono to see how
much longer it was going to be before the meeting and noticed that it was
almost time. He quickly downloaded the profile that the Bajoran Embassey
had provided him with and brought it along with him to the rndez vous point.
