[snip]“Do you have a map of your overall transportation network?” Kord asked.
=/\= I am sure I could get a copy if you needed it, yes. =/\= The First replied.
“I wouldn’t mind seeing some of your military and defensive structures and training facilities,” Hal said. “Maybe we could compare notes?”
“Our COS has a particular affection for anything military related.” Kord said jovially.
There was the usual pause before replies came through the UT the First looking to the COS as they walked down a sloped hill around the larger local transportation hub station. =/\= We don’t have much of a military per say, our history has had few true wars among our society. Much less do we got a space based military. Still I could show you to our local training base. It’s not far from here if we took the local monorail =/\= She said.
Around them by now the away team began to notice more and more curious eyes on them and whispers of curious Alstairians. They were in no means hostile just outright curious about the strangers to their world. As if to drive home this point overhead on a news broadcast screen on the side of a building was a local news caster mentioning their arrival and the return of one of the lost sleeper ships. So evidently news of this historic event was already spreading across the planet!
Gesturing to a monorail car, the First spoke up again. =/\= If you’ll follow me we can head for the local training base =/\= She said.
=/\= Despite visiting numerous new worlds, =/\= Glen said, observing the curiosity of the Alstairean crowd, =/\= It still comes as a surprise to me how marvellous this must all seem to your people seeing beings from another planet for the very first time. =/\=
=/\= Glen to Bridge. William, once that shuttle has docked with Tia and security, send the Doctor, Liz Jasper down in it again. I’d still like to keep us a shuttle down on the surface. Also, I think Liz would be interested in the Alstairean hospitals and medical facilities, and we will need to write a report on those for the Federation. =/\=
=^=Aye, Captain=^= was the curt reply that came from the Ship.
=/\= Oh! And if you intend going to investigate the Sleeper ship with Tia, who will have Command of the Merrimack in your absence? =/\= Glen asked. =/\= I’m not stopping it, but I still feel the Merrimack is vulnerable in this region of space. It needs to be someone with command experience, preferably a weapons officer if not a Bridge officer. let me know who and have them contact me when you leave. Glen out! =/\=
Glen spoke to the First, =/\= Our ship is sending help to your second lost Sleeper ship. My Chief Engineer, Science Officer and a medical team are on their way there now. I have my Chief Medical Officer coming down to the planet shortly. After the transport hub and training centre, could we visit your medical facilities, and you arrange to have her meet us there. She’ll land the shuttle in the same place as before. It would also be good to see how those crew that we rescued are recovering after their burns treatments. =/\=
Glen, CO
“I can return to the ship if you wish Captain.” Kord offered.
