He called the Plantoc's office, "I apologize for
the lateness of the hour but I have an urgent matter to discuss with the
Plantoc please."
>"One moment please," responded the young man who had taken the Ambassador's call. His face was >replaced with scrolling images of the Aqualish homeworld. A moment later, Watson found hiimself looking >at the Plantoc. She had come to answer his call immediately, since she was still dressed in her night >clothes. >(to avoid retyping) "Plantoc--I am sorry but this is extremely short notice to myself as well as you." Watson >explained the situation with the body and such from the recovery...."I am starting to believe that this woman >in stasis is Lady Karina referenced in the previous logs of contact with the Letrosians. The Empress Livia >is...between you and me....high maintenance. She will want a Grand Reception. If we can pull this off I >suspect we could reopen relations with the Letrosians. I will notify Admiral Renaud to attend." >A look of confusions spread over the T'Kresh's face. "I am sorry, Ambassador Watson, but I believe that I >have missed something. Could you tell me a little bit more about this body and how it might relate to this >'high maintenance' empress?" "I apologize. Here is a body recovered in its
current stasis chamber. She was recovered in a rescue mission by order of
Admiral Renaud as I understand it. She has been identified by the Spacedock CMO
as a Letrosian. The Letrosians closed their borders and communications with us
sometime ago. I came across the Lycane Ambassador Canide who has a contact with
the Letrosians and was willing to assist us so we can return the chamber and its
occupant to its rightful home. Long ago before the Letrosians border closure, a
Lady Karina travelled with a Federation ship and then dissapeared. I have a
hunch that this is her."
He waited to let it sink in.
"Through Ambassador Canide, arrangements have been
made with Lady Irina of the Letrosians to visit to discuss and recover the
member of her race. She expects royal treatment apparently...and I see an
opportunity to renew an old contact if we pull it off
correctly."
