Captain Maya will, in turn, ask Carrick to relay the message to Governor Inistrati.

Assuming he does, the Governor will ask to open a direct line to Cyril.

"Tell them I would need to know who authorized the use of Imperial ships in a civil matter first, before I can answer that..."

He does.

In reply to Carrick Teague (msg # 943):

There is a long pause, before responding

"The officers with enough rank to know that are dead."

Kat just listens at this point.

I don't follow... that who is dead?

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 946):

The senior officers from the cruiser that was destroyed.

OK, so the senior officers are all dead... and only they knew who authorized this is that it?


What rank is this guy? can I tell?

The junior officer barely look to be thirty.

"Yes, sir. With whom am I speaking? Your Vilani is...not that good."

Cyril switches to High Vilani My Apologies, I am Commander Zotmund and to whom do I have the honor of speaking?

"I am doctor Trots, formerly of the Patrol Cruiser Gunnersai"

Glad you are safe Dr., we expect to have the captain of the Scout in hand ishortly, perhaps he will speak for all of you. I gather the Governor is discussing what to do with his advisors, and I will not be a part of that decision.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 952):

"But we were defending the Governor, who was in the scout you disabled."

The vilani commander of the over through force, if I am not mistaken. We take orders from the Governor.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 954):

"He was the rebel, who called himself Governor. Administrator Sharik Yangila herself told us to support Bonito Yangila, who was in the disabled scout."

[OOC: Translating the word 'governor' in both sentences, are we talking about the same tier of government as Inistrati? In other words, are we hearing the same word "sarriiu" (perhaps "shakkanakhu") every time we're translating the word 'Governor'?]

In reply to Carrick Teague (msg # 956):

Yes.

[OOC: So, this fellow is basically telling us that Inistrati is an impostor? Is that what I'm getting?]

Captain, I think we need to get that air raft ASAP.

In reply to Carrick Teague (msg # 959):

"I don't know a lot about Vilani politics, but I am not sure that a planetary Governor can be removed from office without a very public trial...Kat, lets get to him. Carrick, if you could try to open communications to get him on board."

In reply to Cptn Niki Maya (msg # 960):

The Dastavka is by now drawing very near to the raft, but it could not be collected in the docking bay for the ships boat due to it's small size. It will have to be brought into the rear cargo hold that the speeder formerly occupied, which will require the rafts co-operation.

Insuring safe communication first,

Vilani vessel. This is the Dastavka. We are attempting to bring you aboard for your own safety. Please comply.

In reply to Vilani (msg # 955):

We just did a quick check of records and the news... your boy is not the governor... our guy still is. I suspect that you are part of a failed coup attempt. I imagine you and yours will not be well received by those in power who initiated this ... almost assuredly they will disavow all knowledge and call you criminals.

In reply to Carrick Teague (msg # 962):

The raft does not respond, but continues towards the planet at staggingly slow speed.

In reply to Fate (msg # 964):

"No! That can't be right! Our officers were certain of what they told us! Guarantee us a fair trial, at least!"

Dr. Trots, I can't grant such a boon, but neither I nor my fellow crew members are inclined to see you punished for following what seemed legitimate Orders. Vilani politics are well beyond us ... But I do promise to say what I am allowed on your behalf. We are not interested in killing all of you, as our actions should indicate. It was a bit of tricky flying to save you all from a horrible end. Why would we do that and then throw you to the wolves?
