Upon their arrival at Spacedock, Valtris met the rest of the Council 
members at the airlock for disembarking.  She wanted to see if there  was
anything else they needed to do in regards to Golan Dulath.  She  had little
doubt that he would not be returning to Cardassia any time  soon.  She was
not sure whether they needed to make any arrangements  for that.

She nodded with a grin to Melora Damesh on the way by, but had  no interest
in talking to the woman.  She did want to talk to Grand  Proxy Rilg, who as
usual was standing a bit off to the side.  "Might I  have a word with you,
Grand Proxy,"

Rilg looked up to his  Council-mate.  He was surprised that she wanted to
talk to him.  He  had so little involvement in recent events.  He nodded his
head.  "Of  course, Madame Ambassador."

She nodded her head to indicate that she  wanted to talk to him separately
from the rest of the group.  "Rilg, I  think you should be proud of your
involvement in all of this.  That man  owe's his safety and independence to
you."

If Ferengi blushed, he  would have been a deep red.  It was not often that
his people were able to  stand out for this kind of involvement.  "I thank
you, Valtris, but this  could not have been accomplished without everyone's
assistance.  I added no  more, if not less, than most of you."

"That may be true, Rilg, but most people think that the Ferengi are foolish
and selfish.  Even with all the reforms that your people have been through,"
said the Klingon representative.  "You have definitely proven that is not
the case.  You challenged Melora Damesh, who I knew you were worried about
and brought forward information that may have saved Golan's life.  We owe you
a lot for that."
Rilg's toothy grin revealed the pride he was feeling.  "Thank you, Valtris.  I appreciate your kind words."  It was not the type of conversation one expected with a Klingon.  Her comments made him feel like an equal among the rest of the Council members.  "I look forward to continue as a full participant in Council deliberations."
 
(Valtris or anyone?)
