At that, Steven took a little deeper breath, and did relax somewhat.
>Much more seriously, she reviewed the information she had. "As you know,

This new information twigged curiosity in Steven's mind. Things were
certainly getting stranger and stranger.

Steven nodded, digesting the new information he had just been given.
"Admiral, (ooc: I think?) I am trying to put together a team that will help me
while I'm out there looking for any information on the missing ships and
personnel. Would you have anyone to recommend to me? I have
admittledly little experience in selecting team members in order to get
the information that is needed. Also, is there any indication as to whether
any crewmembers of the Athens is still alive?"
In the midst of the conversation, the intell lab manager chimed in.
"Commander Rodan to Admiral t'Llhweiir. I have the final analysis you requested. I
thought I would pass it along to you verbally, as the final written report won't be
ready for a few more hours."

"We have found finger prints, partials actually, on the inside and out. Nothing
that we could actually use for indenticiation purposes. We did find something worth
while on the inside, skin cells. The cells came from three individuals, all
Starfleet. We have identified the owners as LCDR Kagan the ops officer on the Athens,
CAPT von Richten CO of the Athens, and LT Moss of the USS Sparta."
