She smiled, again clearly used to receiving the question. "We were attached
to the Borg collective for less than a month, Captain. We were pure drones,
involved in the general function of the vessel, and never accessed the inner
workings of the collective. Indeed, as a drone, you do not have any desire
to. However, my exposure to them did give me many insights into the
different cultures and races the Borg have assimilated. As you know, the
Borg keep detailed record of all civilizations they conquer. Some were here
and gone long before the Federation existed. Occasionally I see... images
in my dreams, of vast cities and great civilizations. I find unexpectedly
that I have knowledge of cultures I have never encountered Some of it is
useful, but most of it is... a remnant. I grieve for those destroyed
people, Captain, and that, more than these implants, is what makes
separation from the collective difficult."
"I can't even imagine..."
Sensing that the conversation had gotten a bit tense the XO cut in the change the
topic.
"Well, Ambassador... How about something to eat? I know it's not necessary for
Venasians to consume nurishment orally, but we did put together a few tidbits of
Federation cuisine if you care to sample."
