OOC: Creating a split here with new title.Meanwhile, the scans showed several things: not only did the bullet cause damage to multiple organs, but the system spat back an ID alert: Halai Cosgrove.

In a non-descript warehouse away from Sacred Heart, Eryn sat at a computer console, with multiple monitors and watched. She hated these days. She’d rather be in the field working than watching it. But it served a purpose and it was her turn. Her eyes darted back and forth across the screens watching the comings and goings around Oed, when the computer beeped and flashed and blinked at her. Halai Cosgrove? A quick look told her it was pinged from the hospital. Well that wasn’t good for Halai Cosgrove. “And vhy my dear is your name pinging my alarms? Hmm?” Turning to the key board Eryn initiated a search.

Halai Cosgrove (formerly a decorated Lieutenant in Starfleet) had been the Head of Science & Terraforming on Oed V from 2389-2395 until she resigned her position. This came weeks after she had been notably attacked in her villa and the attack had been traced to a small Tyrellian spiritual group. During the attack, they also abducted Halai’s half-sister Kristina Cosgrove and managed to remove her from the Oed system before the ports were locked down. Halai refused to press charges, but was determined to get her sister back. She took a leave from her duties and went to Tyrellia. She promptly resigned her position on Oed and has not set foot on the planet since. It is noted that she remained on Tyrellia, but Kristina returned to Oed safely with no adverse affects of her abduction. Halai has recently been named Tyrellia’s Cultural Ambassador. To date no formal explanation was given for the attack and abduction and the officials who knew about it are no longer on Oed V.

Well that was interesting. Eryn was sure it would mean more if she had been on Oed then. She put in a search for information on the Tyrellian spiritual group and their past and current activities. News reports on what Halai Cosgrove did as Tyrellia’s Cultural Ambassador, as well as any shady reports she could find. A search for known associates and backgrounds on them as well as on her sister, Kristina Cosgrove, since she seemed to play a part in the previous incident.
She hit a com button the desk, “Hey, James come in here a moment. Take a look at this.”

Amongst the slew of results that popped up, the Black Sparrow captained by Michael Conrad, would be there. The Black Sparrow was the ship that had taken Halai back to Tyrellia. It was also well known by intelligence within the sector. It was described as a raggedy civilian vessel with unconfirmed unique capabilities. More could be found on both Conrad and the Black Sparrow if needed.
-Black Sparrow info dude
The Intelligence records were spotty, but after the attack on Cosgrove’s villa, Starfleet and Colony Intelligence kept tabs on the movements of the group. Prior to the abduction there had been no reports of violence from the group… ever. In fact, on Tyrellia they were practically considered myth. But piecing together a few statements from Halai herself, it seemed she had had previous contact with them before applying to the job of Head of Science & Terraforming on Oed V, and her extensive back tattoos have been noted as having been done by the group. Halai is, as best as they can understand, considered ‘blessed’, due to burgeoning psi abilities that apparently all Tyrellians genetically have but rarely develop into anything these days.
In her role as Cultural Ambassador, Cosgrove invites high ranking officials from across the Federation to come to Tyrellia to understand the world better. Decades ago, the Federation intervened upon the request of the Trellians during a massive plague that swept the planet. While they had had warp drive from some time, they have been a reclusive people, protective of their culture but also welcoming of those that wish to experience it for themselves. This dichotomy is something the planet still struggles with, but many of the visiting personnel from Starfleet stayed connected to Tyrellia and there is now a generation of mixed-species children like Cosgrove who are trying to balance their different heritages and the genetic issues that come with the mixing. It is noted that a disconnect from the spiritual practices in both full-blooded Tyrellians and those that are mixed (that some scientists believe have a physiological affect upon the body), can cause harm in the form of neurotransmitter deficiencies (and causing all sort of mental health issues) as well as a markedly higher risk of cardiac issues and death. Cosgrove has been an advocate for continuing these practices and making sure other mixed species children like herself get the support they need. It is believed also that Tyrellia intends to make a play for Federation membership at some point in the near future.
As far as associates, notable is her companion Akem, a Deltan she met on Michael Conrad’s ship Black Sparrow and he stayed with her after she resigned her position on Oed V.
Dowann Castinne, the Deputy Councillor for External Affairs, is noted to be a former lover of Cosgrove’s and he was involved in organizing the attack on Halai and abduction of her sister. They interact professionally, but reports confirmed that she has zero personal contact with him anymore.
Halai’s half-sister, Kristina Cosgrove, had a clean record other than her abduction by the clerics. She chose not to press charges stating ‘it was a spiritual matter between the Tyrellians and who was she to interfere’, baffling OED police but there was nothing to be done about it. She returned to OED V after and attended a 2-year program in Public Relations and has since returned to the colony after spending time on Earth with her family.
~Helpful Computer
Akem’s file didn’t provide much. He had been a traveling physician, offering services primarily in the form of therapy. However he was a licensed medical professional. After traveling on the Black Sparrow for a year or so, he decided to leave the Sparrow and stay on Tyrellia with Halai as needed.
-One last little info dump
Eryn ran a search on The Black Sparrow and Michael Conrad and his known aliases, crew, and associates.
She queried the computer to find the last known location of Halai Cosgrove and relevant pictures.
A link up to the computer systems across the colony allowed her to pull pictures of the Halai in Sacred heart and she used those pictures to compare to the Halai that was supposed to be on Tyrellia.
She also did a search for current activity of the Tyrellian spiritual group. As well as details of their spiritual practices. A search for Dowann Castinne to see if he was up to old tricks.
All of the information was focused on Halai’s Tyrellian heritage. Eryn did a search for other associates and family and connections from the other side of her family, even possibly connected to her half sister. After all of that, it would be time to head to the hospital to see what she could find out there.
