Negotiations between Starfleet and the Delta Alliance

[Koloblicin]

*Kolo tries to stop singing but fails and instead joins Vorak in a duet.*

[Randall Sanchez]

*Sanchez shakes his head, as his normal temper begins to return.*
"Luckily the alcohol of this Razanis doesn't stay in your blood very long, the effect runs out nearly as fast as it came."
*Then he turns to his crew.*
"Mr. Brooks, Mr. Reeves, Mr. Dalon, it's time to return to the ship. Follow me."
*He nods at admirals Vorak and Karelia, and the remaining people, and then leaves the embassy with his ship's crew.*

OFF: Evolution crew, post in the Evolution forum again please.

OFF2: Delta Alliance Revox crew, post in the Revox forum again please.

[Dalon]

*Dalon calmly drinks the glass of Razanis that Reeves gave him. His Vulcan control never seems to waver. Everyone looks at him with expectations, because everyone wonders if it will have the same effect on a Vulcan as on a Human, but Dalon does not seem to give the slightest hint. Then he looks at the person on his left, Ragolis, and calmly begins to continue the ceremony by taking some salt from the box and putting it in the hand of Ragolis.*
"The salt, for the bitterness of life."
*He calmly waits until Ragolis eats the salt, and then fills his glass with the Razanis.*
"The Razanis, to rejoice the soul."
*Then he gives the glass to Ragolis.*
"I am the past and the future.  And the future commands. Be my friend for the present."
*At the moment Ragolis wants to drink it, Dalon suddenly starts singing really loud, his voice pitching from very high to very low and back. Ragolis almost spoils his drink from the unexpected singing.*

[Randall Sanchez]

*Sanchez looks at his first officer.*
"No, you're not getting another glass until you change your bathing suit into a descent Starfleet uniform again!"

[Will Karelia]

"Yes, but I have to attend the command-code transfer on the Tiberon first."

[Daniel Reeves]

*near the door picking at his uniform was the Evolution's Chief Science Officer*

{this uniform is so uncomfortable }

Here I am Captain, better late than never, huh?
*takes his seat*

OFF: thanks Dhante http://expansionfleet.sparks.priorweb.be/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

[Nick Brooks]

*Walks in with the away team*

Captain, Admiral, sorry we are late, have we missed anything?

[Vorak]

"I am aware that high warp travel can, in long term, damage subspace and thus render certain areas in space damaged to the extent that warp travel is rendered impossible there. That is why we have a regulation, one of the latest additions to our book of rules, that warp speed above warp 5 is not allowed unless in extreme or urgent circumstances. But I take it you have developped alternative technology to be able to travel at high warp without damaging subspace?"

[Will Karelia]

The Admiral trys to hold back a chuckle.

(OFF: If Koloblicin's turn comes up and he cant post, I will do it for him. He is having computer trouble.)

[Daniel Reeves]

*at this point Reeves sat there pondering what his reaction might be to this powerful drink. He wasn't really looking forward to being "drunk" but he knew that he would have to perform this part of the ritual in order to fullfill his duties to starfleet, as they were in the heart of a very important alliance negotiation*

[Nick Brooks]

*Brooks trys to remain unnoticed, trying to hold down a chuckle*

[Vorak]

"Those goals are very noble indeed, and strikingly similar to the goals of our Federation. Even though your regulations may be different, in the end we reach for the same aim. I hope that your High Queen is willing to consider a treaty of peace between your faction, and ours. This treaty could be effective in various ways, the exchange of scientific information, technology enhancements, aid in case of perilous situations, trade, and of course... communication between your people, and ours."

[Vorak]

*Vorak glances at Sanchez.*
"I believe Mr. Ardwyad requested glasses."

[Randall Sanchez]

"Usually not, I would think... but as we say: wine reveals all secrets."

[Ardwyad]

"Ah yes, captain Sanchez. I understand we discovered you at a crucial moment. We were aware of activity nearby the Quantum Singularity Network, and decided to have a closer look. That was when we found you."
*He glances around and then looks at Sanchez again.*
"Well, hmm... Mr. Sanchez, there is one request I must ask of you. It may seem insignificant for you, but for us it is of great importance. You must know that the Quantum Singularity Network is sacred territory of our two supreme gods: Qughan, the God of Light, and Savarin the Goddess of Life. In other words, the Great Light and the Great Creator. There are many historical legends surrounding them, which I will tell you about at a later time perhaps, but the important thing is that they bring harmony in the universe, especially to our people and our allies in the Delta Alliance. Angering the gods of the Q.S.N. may result in disaster for us all."
