A Runabout lifted off from station Io and headed back toward
Spacedock. With the mission completed, it was time for the team from the station to return and make their report. Along with them, they were bringing Gabe Ares, who had been brought aboard to help with the investigation into the mysterious woman in the cryochamber. "LtCdr Holt to Spacedock." The familiar voice of Brad Arsineau responded. "This is Spacedock Operations. Go ahead Commander." "I am currently on approach to the station. I am requesting docking permission and information." "Understood" replied the voice. A few seconds later a set of docking instructions appeared on her console. "I am sending over your docking assignment, Commander. Is there anything you are going to need when you land?" (Aravis?) As the ship floated through the Sol System, Gabe sat at one of the work stations at the back of the ship. He was going over the scans that he and Dr. Ingolsdottir had taken earlier. "Computer, are there any entries in the Federation xenobiology database that match the readings taken on the subject?" "Working," replied the rich voice of the computer. "The subject appears to be a member of the Letrosian race." Gabe was not familiar with that species, which sort of surprised him. He considered himself fairly knowledgable about the majore sentient species of the Alpha Quadrant. "Please bring up a summary of information about the Letrosians." "The Letrosians are a species that were identified by the USS James Cook about 130 years ago. In early Earth history, they visited Terra through a number of cairns that were interstellar transits of some sort. They played a major role in many of Celtic mythology in the roll of fairies. The females of the species have wings that are clearly visible, while the wings of the male seem to have atrophied through evolution. By the time that the Cook arrived in their home system, the culture seemed to have turned in on itself with a matriarchal society being its primary form of government." (Gabe?)
