Subj: RE: Concerning Information
ET AL,
This situation is just like one big onion. We keep peeling back the layers to reveal more layers. CDR Nathes, thank you so much for this information. I had heard that rumor years ago but I had never heard the name “khaiell rhadai” associated with it. That is, in short, both disturbing and a lead we may need. Most likely an analyst heard it but given the amount of rumors that turn out to be chaff, filed it in the garbage bin.
The disturbing issue here now is that given the species’ ability to conform and adapt to any shape given a few months and a structure to clean to, our khaiell rhadai could be anyone. Given the time that has passed since, CDR Nathes, you heard this rumor and it’s apparent falling off the radar, that means there is a possibility that Charvas or Ansha could be this khaiell rhadai.
Charvas’ background claims have been vetted to mycelium 25 years ago. We were able to interview the mother and she was very helpful. Said she went digging after the, get this, the 'pale, pointed eared, ones ’ came and raided the warehouse from where she went trash picking. That may be why our ‘jiffy pop army’ sales were stopped? Maybe it was Tal Shiar? Who knows.
Ansha, however, is only vetted back 17 years ago, as she was found floating in space, frozen solid. We do know the rescue pod she was in was launched from the Slygo Surveyor and that it had be in space for 26 days. Before that we are taking her at her word.
NOW, before we grab pitchforks, there is a theory by those that have studied Ansha’s development, that this species seems to have an issue with lying. They can’t seem to do it. Ansha’s psychological profiles seem to indicate this and Charvas’ upfront openness suggests this is a viable theory.
Ansha has also had numerous mind melds and none came back with red flags. I think, honestly unless I’m missing something, there is still a third Wind People running around and it is working for the Tal Shiar.
Now, next bit of info. Dhisuia s’Droall, that’s a name I haven’t heard in years. I was almost willing to bet she had been executed for being a disgrace after I defeated her when she challenged me to a duel. Fortunately for me the high minister that was present was big on honor. She tried to cheat, (you could see him rolling his eyes and shaking his head anytime you heard the shink of a poisoned boot blade). Long story short, the minister honored my win and let me leave with my wounded partner. That sporting of him at least. That was about 21 years ago.
So here we are to item number three on the list of things that will keep me up tonight, Klingon border? CDR Nathes, I’m assuming you mean the border with RR space? Like the Azure Nebula? We may need to head there if I can clear it, Capt Tungsten. That’s the last known location of the Von Gruber, the ship that if you remember, may hold the data that will tell us where the Wind People are from. We need to get that info before anyone else does. It does not make me at all happy that someone leaked that information but then it was only classified at Level 1 so there you go.
Last little bit and then I’ll end the missive. Capt Tungsten, can we have a meeting on the Dragon, with you, CDR Nathes, CMDR Reese, and anyone else you feel is relevant, please? I’m inviting you, CDR Nathes, because I would so much like to get some more detail on this information you have that could be better asked outside of a message like this. First thing on the agenda, I’m sending CMDR Reese home. He’s done enough distracting and I’m sure his pregnant wife wants him there.
I think it may be time to level with Ansha, and arrange a family reunion. If anything to see how this progresses.
