“It should be fine, but keep it small. The thing to remember is that Tyrellian society generally is a harmonious one. Violence is incredibly rare and most people would never dream of arming themselves. To them it would be seen as a measure of distrust. However, that was before contact with the Federation and now that there are off-worlders visiting and sometimes living there, that precept has relaxed a bit. It will be tolerated, but it could alter people’s perception of you upon first meeting.”
Halai moved over to the side of the room and picked up her dark stained bō and showed the wooden quarterstaff to everyone. “This is what I’m carrying. It’s a bit shorter to suit my fighting style, but I can assure you that as unassuming as it looks, when used properly, it is more than enough. I have no intention of needing to use it, but it serves as a warning to those that already caused me harm that I’m willing to defend myself and those who are entrusted to my hospitality, which is all of you.”

Conrad nodded understanding perfectly now. “Got it. And finally are there any stipulations about being in Tyrellia space? I really don’t want to be surprised to find my ship towed from its parking spot, if you catch my drift.”
Conrad aleady knew what he had in mind to bring with him on the trip down. Some special tech he had managed to procur when he found Katrina would work quite well on this trip.

Halai smiled almost shrewdly. “You won’t have to worry about a thing. When we get into the system and Control hails you, I will be present on the bridge. It is… not a stretch to say that people will know who I am. Tyrellian Starfleet officers are rare and I have a reputation on the planet earned from work I did with a government a few years ago. Not only will they not question you but we’ll all be warily welcomed. Well, those who aren’t against me, I suppose.”

Valkris’ head tilted again, this time catching onto the last statement. She couldn’t help her frown getting deeper while she spoke. Her eyes studied Cosgrove’s movements and her behavior for anything off. As far as she has seen, there wasn’t anything in the woman’s profile that might indicate she would lie on purpose. However, most would never consider her mother the type to marry her father and not leave him immediately.
“Is there anyone of note we should tread cautiously around?”
