Re: The Search for Information
In reply to Ken Jenkins (msg # 521):
They were in the passenger service tunnels, so the view of any ships was limited. Lorain answered Ken, "yes, my message! I convinced the crew of Kalamanaru's ship that we really needed that artefact and that Kalamanaru would kill them if they showed up to Qarant without it. They bought it. I figured anyone that dumb would probably screw up and leave some kind of evidence! I mean, it was a thousand-to-one, but I had no better option, I had to delay them. Once I got to Qarant, I would be as dead as that scout they kidnapped a while back."
Suddenly, how close a call it was struck her and she began to shiver in shock.
