"General A'amon...I hope you will find the beverages  and food suitable. I
personally designed the menu in consultation with  the Plantoc."

"I am impressed by your selection, Admiral. It is not  easy to arrive at
some ingredients for Venasian cuisine.  I am sure  we will enjoy the
refreshment." He turned at some new  arrivals.  "Yes," he smiled, beckoning
them over, "Allow me to  introduce to you some members of my staff.  This is
Torell Janaki,  Head Secretary."

Torell was a typical Venasian male  - slender,  pale, with gold-flecked blue
eyes and vestigial webbing.  While  Venasians would tell others that there
were definite distinguishable differences between members of the different
families, about the only  thing which set Torell apart from others was his
Secretary's  uniform.  He came forward and gave a crisp tilt of his head,
but otherwise said little.

"This is General Darena T'landran,  Fleetmaster."

A Venasian woman with a severe almost-Vulcan hairstyle  came forward.
"Admiral," she said with brisk efficiency, "It  is an honor to meet you."

The Ferengi Grand Proxy had hung back while everyone was speaking.  He was
not overly comfortable with large groups of people.  He had a feeling  that
most of his colleagues did not see him as measuring up.  He was  intrigued
by the Venasians.  They always seemed a bit mysterious to him and they were
becoming even more so as he met more of them.

Valtris had bowed her head as the General introduced each member of his
staff.  She knew few Venasians, but these folks made her wary.  She was not
sure why.  One would think that the current representative to the Council
would disturb her more with her Borg implants, but these three made her
spine run cold.

"It is a pleasure to meet your staff, General," said the Plantoc in response to the introductions.  "I am sure that they serve you and your people well."
