Nanny State

Mission: Azimuth Horizon: Crusade - Chapter 3: Preparations
Location: SB 10 meeting room.

Gould listened to Jureth's concerns as to the Dominion without much concern, as the fleet captain pointed out it was unlikely they could strike so far away from DS9, at lest in the foreseeable future.

But these 'Horizon children' as they were called got his attention. He too felt Jureth's frustration at no knowing enough to fully contribute to the conversation and his personal knowledge of Klingon's was limited to mostly diplomatic situations, having spent much of his career near Romulan space.

And diplomacy was after all his field of expertese..

"The USS Lotus is one of the best re-fitted ships in this sector as well as having been shaped in part to counter the effects of the AH, and while she can hold her own in a fight she was never meant to be a ship of war. I would like to volunteer the Lotus to contact these children and arrange a more mutually beneficial relationship between them and the Federation, it could also be that they have an insight that we lack regarding the AH and they may even be willing to help reverse its growth with the right encouragement."

Or perhaps they may show us how they created it? he mused to himself.

"I cannot think of a better ship than the Lotus and myself to handle such as mission, sir."
