>Golan looked up. He had been eating a turkey wrap while reading the newspaper. He placed the PADD he >had downloaded it down when he had gone to answer the door. He stepped aside at the Ambassador's >request. "Please come in, Mr. Ambassador. Have a seat," added as he indicated the seating area.
>"Might I get you something to eat or drink?"
>"No thanks". He sat, "I need to ask you some questions now that we're away from Cardassia. Where were >you when you wrote that note?" He took his PADD and attached it to the display and brought up an image >of it.
>Golan's face paled slightly. These were not fond memories that Watson was asking him to remember. >He walked over to one of the other chairs and did everything but collapse into it. "I was on Cardassia >Prime. As I am sure you can assume from its content, my first assigned quarters upon my arrival were not >the most comfortable."
Watson started to stand to help Dulath but saw he was ok. "Yes.."
>The professor's ligth blue eyes darted back and forth. It was a side effect of his most recent run-in with the >Obsidian Order. "The last time I was with the Council, Melora Damesh was announcing my recall. While >Central Command is in charge of our diplomats, my recall was at the behest of the head of the Obsidian >Order. He happens to be her father as well."
>He paused for a few moments as the bad memories rushed forward. "They ... questioned me about my >work on Spacedock and were not exactly happy with the various projects I had been around."
"I am truly sorry for the treatment you received. I will have our doctor give you a more thorough exam upon arrival. Are you considering Asylum on Spacedock?"
"I would like to find a way to not have to return to Cardassia. While I consider it my home, I do not believe that I will be safe there in the long term. I was going to look into seeing if one of the Council members would be willing to offer me asylum."
