"How are you settling into your new life here on Cardassia?" asked the
Klingon. She saw no reason to beat around the bush. They were here for a
reason. The sooner they dealt with it, the sooner they could deal with
the realities of the situation. "I understand that you have taken a
position at the university."
"As with any move, it was a bit traumatic to my system. As I mentioned, I
would have preferred to remain at Earth, but as you can expect, when
Central Command calls, we all listen." Golan moved over to the table and
rested his hands on the back of one of the chairs. "They have set me up
in a wonderful position, and I have a chance to work with young minds, but
it is not the life one would have chosen. What I have lost and what could
have been has left me with some pain."
Gul Legrath stepped forward. He did not like the way the conversation was
going.
Dulath raised his hand. "Do not worry, Legrath. I have no intention of
implying that you and your people are abusing me and pretty much holding me
hostage here on Cardassia." He turned and zeroed his iron gray eyes on the
military man. "That would be foolish and would serve no purpose here."
Rilg looked to the others. Was it a message indicating that was the case?
Valtris had no doubt that it was a message from Dulath. That was the the
truth and the Cardie Gul was supporting that belief with the stare that he
was given her former colleague. "Perahps, you could take a vacation and
visit us on the station, Professor. I understand that you are between
terms
at University."
Golan glanced toward Valtris and nodded. "You are correct about our
scheduling, but I am not sure that I could get a way. My work keeps me
pretty much tied to my desk."
"If it is mostly administrative work, then you probably could bring it with
you and do it while you travel. I am sure that you could use a nice
vacation. Settling into a new position can be a lot of work." Valtris
glanced at Legrath as she spoke. "From what I understand, it could be good
for your health to get away from things."
