Steven nodded. "I did, but she was summoned away for another meeting
while I was discussing what to do. I was asking for your recommendations
largely due to the fact that I have not had time to interact much with the
other people in Special Operations, other than with those with whom I
have returned on that joint taskforce. I would like to take the best people
with me, naturally, but I am also open to any recommendations."
[OOC: in player parlance, this is known as covering one's ass. Especially
since the PLAYER is feeling lost *wry* Besides, how much would a
*Commander* really know if all of this information was classified or something,
as it seems it likely would have been... and he's only recently joined Spec.Ops,
right?]

>t'Llhweiir looked at Liridian. She would see just what he was made of.
>"Commander Liridian, do you have any questions?"
"One main one to go with the bunch of little ones: Is there 'for certain' information
as to where this came from? And do we know this is not just some trick played by
whatever group had held them or killed them to lead any investigative team into
an ambush? After all, it's very easy to get partial prints and skin cells into
something
if the person those were coming from were dead."
"No, Commander. We have no way of determining exactly where this object came from, at
least not from what information that we have thus far. The dirt found on the
communicator could have come from any number of places. To know more about where it
was found you would have to ask the being that turned it in. We do know that it is a
genuine Starfleet issue item. We matched tracer elements that are built into the
components with Starfleet records. It is beyond any doubt one of ours. As for your
last question, well that is what you field operative types are for. You have to
answer that one on your own. The lab can tell us quite a lot, but not everything.",
Rodan answered.
