"Thank you for coming, Samuel," Carrhae said simply.

better than he did earlier in the day.

Seeing that no one was fooled by her attempt, Kalina said, "We will adjourn to
the living area until Major Turner gives us the 'all clear.'"
While Kalina and the others entered the house, t'Llhweiir remained
outside. She said to the security chief in a crisp voice that seemed so
incongruous
with her garb, "Status, Major."
"Someone breeched security. We are serching the rest fo the grounds to be sure
that only one made the mistake of entering. The intruder is in custody at
present, and additional security has been called for. Lt. Phillips doesn't
think this individual is a serious professional hitter, so I've also called in
the FBI. In the event that he is a civilian, they would have more teeth in a
prosecution than we would. If all is well, I'll know it in about 10 minutes
top, ma'am. I'm sorry to have allowed this on this day of all others.", Turner
answered professionally, yet truely aorry for the bad taste that this caused.
