Dracos:
Deela: I have experience in ancient languages, would you like some help?
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Krag:  so long as you keep that targ controlled and off the bridge, permission granted
zyrc:
<Xia>  ::smells yummy soup::
Host Matt_vTrek:
Doctor: Ensign T'Sele, ship's counselor. I believe you have a patient for me to speak to?
Rich_Ayles:

87ewas:
rand: Aye sir it did sheild normal
Host Cheryl_vTrek:

zyrc:
<Xia> ::puts half empty bowl of soup down::
Rich_Ayles:
::runs fingers over his PADD but looks up when Xia sounds alarmed::
Dracos:
Deela: ...with that race with the really weird dicton?
87ewas:

Deela:
Gyrax:  Yes I do...
zyrc:
<Xia> ::stares at T'Sele's ears::
Dracos:
Deela: This is similiar in structure.
Deela:
::symbols start to make sense now::

zyrc:
<Xia> You have come to find out more about T'Sele?  Sit, please.

Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::nods at Krag::  As security chief, implement appropriate procedures 
Dracos:
Computer: Are you familiar with the symbolic structure of the ::the Gorn coughs, knowing he forgot the race's name:: alien culture
Host Matt_vTrek:
Xia: Why don't you tell me all about your race, then I can tell you about all the different races on board this ship.
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  My race, my beloved race, I am all that is left.  I carry all that is known about them.
87ewas:

Rich_Ayles:
*Ensign Krag* This is Dr Ramares. It is great  to have you on board but I would like you to report to me for a routine medical check at the next available opportunity. Thank you.
87ewas:
rand: all ready done sir?
Dracos:
::looks at Deela:: Deela: I, er, forgot that race's name.
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  ...predicated on *acceptance*...'fatalism' you might call it.
Deela:
Gyrax: Tamarian
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
*Sickbay*  update?
Dracos:
Computer: Use parameters Tamarian
87ewas:
rand: Also sir i am empathic it is possiple for me to pick up strong emtoions if i am close sir.
Host Matt_vTrek:
Xia: Fatalism? Please explain.
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  I was a spiritual guide to my peoples.  My poor, beloved peoples...::weeps::
Dracos:
::grins widely at Deela for saving his pride::
Rich_Ayles:
*XO* The counsellor is with Xia at the moment and I will run a full bio-scan when he is finished.
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
*Med* acknowledged
Deela:
::looks at Gyrax and smiles::
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  ::still crying::  oh, you see, we believe that we must accept whatever happens without trying to interefere in the course of nature...
87ewas:
*sec: send some one up to the bridge aspa
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Sec:  go to Xia's quarters and keep an eye out
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  ...that is why I am the only one left.  ::weeps::
Dracos:
<Computer> Gyrax: Understood, program running
Host Matt_vTrek:
::looks about for a hankie, fails, and gets a bandage from the sickbay cabinet::
Dracos:
<Comp> Gyrax: Match indicated
87ewas:

Dracos:
Deela: We've got it!!
zyrc:
<Xia>  ::composes self a touch::
Host Matt_vTrek:
Xia: here, um... dry your eyes.
87ewas:
::goes to xia quartes::
Deela:
Gyrax:  Thanks for your help..  Idon't think I would have saw that pattern..  ::smiles::
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  But, T'Sele, I am not truly sad as whatever happens was meant to happen and it is my priviledge to accept that.  ::takes hanky::
Richard_Castillo has joined the conversation.
Dracos:
Deela: Anytime. It was my pleasure.
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::watches as the bridge hums along smoothly::
Rich_Ayles:
::looks up as Ens Krag walks in:: Ah Ensign Krag. Here for your medical check already ?
Deela:
::watches as computer begins to display information::
Dracos:
::moves gracefully back to Engineering station::
87ewas:
::singales Xia quarters::
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  The Prelates thought it best that we not evacuate when our sun went supernova....
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::receives a message to report to Estefan's Ready Room::
Host Matt_vTrek:
Xia: I think I understand. Do you believe, then, that there is no way to affect your own destiny? That whatever is fated to happen will happen whether or not you do anything to help or prevent it?
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  ...and so they packed me off so that others may know of our race, as the entire planet was wiped free of life.
ea_poe has left the conversation.
87ewas:
Xia: This is Esign Krag [permasion to come in?
Dracos:
::notices a glitch in the power cuplink on deck seventeen::
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  That is our belief, Counselor, yes.  One **should** not affect one's destiny.
Dracos:
::dispatches three engineers to fix the problem::
Rich_Ayles:
::mutters to himself "obviously not here for his medical check" and sighs::
zyrc:
<Xia>  Krag:  Enter , of course ::looks at odd man with some fear::
Host Matt_vTrek:
Xia: Then why do you do anything. Why do you not just stand around all day and do nothing? What motivates you to eat, to sleep, to live?
Dracos:
::something starts to bother Gyrax::
Deela:
Xo:  so far I am able to determine that their government body was called the Prelate...  Looking for info on time index.
87ewas:
::enters the room and stops after door close at parde rest::
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  Well, we are of course to go about our business.  But acceptance, you see, is the key to all our problems today.
Dracos:
::he remembers that the Klingon cup of Gagh Soup didn't hi the spot very well::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::nods at Deela:: yes
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
that fits with what Xia said
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  If we can accept what goes on about us, we are freed from control and thepain that comes with that.
87ewas:
Xia: I am ast Securtiy cheif if you have any problem.
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::ponders::  Science:  any information about their society
Dracos:
::the Gorn stiffle a loud belch, embarrased at his indigestion::
zyrc:
<Xia>  Krag:  Oh, why thank you.  Those are most interesting ridges you have.
Deela:
XO:  Just getting to it now Sir.  One moment...
87ewas:
::tries to get a feeling for xia empathe::
zyrc:
<Xia>  ::picks up soup and finishes it::
87ewas:
XIA: all klingon have them
Rich_Ayles:
::notices unusual brain wave patterns on Xias scan::
Dracos:
Rand: Engineering is going smoothly here. Could I aid Mr. Deela in sifting through the information?
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  You see, I cry when I try to fight against accepting the deaths of my people. When I accept, the pain fades away.
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Gyrax: make it so
Dracos:
Deela: Could you patch the subroutine language program into my console?
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  I notice you are not a very emotionally inclined person, T'Sele.
Rich_Ayles:
::looks at Xia to notice any unusal reactions as a result of the brain wave pattern::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::decides to see what's happening with Xia::
Host Matt_vTrek:
Xia: That is correct. The vulcan race learned long ago to suppress our emotions.
zyrc:
<Xia> ::finishes soup and hands it to Krag with a smile::  May I have some more? This was delicious.
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Mr. Gyrax:  you have the bridge, comm me if needed
87ewas:
::speaks telepathicly to T'sele she seems to be sincer::
Deela:
Gyrax:  sure ...  ::patches info into eng console::
Dracos:
::nods to the commande:: Rand: Yes sir!
Host Matt_vTrek:
Xia: Our race nearly destroyed itself due to emotions, and we have sworn never to let that happen again.
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::moves to TL::
87ewas:
Xia:thank you ::takes a cup and forces a smile::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::swooshes down to sickbay::
Dracos:

zyrc:
<Xia>  ::thinks about what the counselor has said::
Dracos:
::downloads the data into a PADD::
Deela:
Gyrax:  It apprears that they followed their leaders with out questioning them...
Dracos:
::settles into the leather appolstered captain's chair::
Host Matt_vTrek:
::feels a mental intrusion, and automatically blocks it off.::
Host Matt_vTrek:
::stares at Krag::
Dracos:
::looking at his PADD:: Deela: You are correct
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::arrives in Sickbay and makes way to Xia's quarters::
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  We have trained all our lives to accept fate.  There must have been a higher purpose for my people's annihilation.  ::smiles::
Rich_Ayles:
::pulls Krag to one side:: Ens Krag: I am reading some unusual brain wave patterns in Xia consistent wiht violent reactions amongst humanoids. Keep an eye on her.
Host Matt_vTrek:
Xia: A moment, please.
Dracos:
Deela: Strange that such a race would just allow their own self-destruction
zyrc:
<Xia> ::sees Rand approach::
Deela:
Gyrax:  I am finding information that had warp capablities and weapons compareable to ours.
Host Matt_vTrek:
::goes over to Krag::
zyrc:
<Xia>  T'Sele:  Of course.
87ewas:
MarK:aye sir
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::nods at Xia:: Xia: you are awake again.  Do you remember me?
Host Matt_vTrek:
Krag: I would appreciate it if you did not attempt to ... invade my mind .. without my permission. Please do not do so again.
Dracos:
Deela: Yes, but there seems to be some encoded information about certain cultural rites
zyrc:
<Xia>  Rand:  I have met you before, haven't I?
87ewas:
Tseal:yes sir
Rich_Ayles:
::looks up as Lt Cmndr Rand talks to Xia::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Xia: I am Rand; I was there when you came out of stasis
Dracos:
Deela: I've found something here!
zyrc:
<Xia>  Rand:  Yes, yes, you were the one who found me, how good to see you!  Sit, sit!
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Xia:  You are indeed the only one we've retrieved from the planet
zyrc:
<Xia> ::smiles::
Host Matt_vTrek:
Krag: Thank you. ::Returns to Xia::
Deela:
Gryax:  What?  ::jogs over to Gryax::
Dracos:
::check section 1124 paragraph 71
zyrc:
<Xia>  Rand:  And that is the way is was to be.
87ewas:
::goes over to matt and whisper:: I need to talk to you out side for a sec
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::nods at Xia:: thank you, I prefer to stand
Host Matt_vTrek:
::walks outside::
Dracos:
Deela: There is a map of this sector!
87ewas:
::followes mat::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::considers how to tell Xia what is on her mind::
zyrc:
<Xia>  Rand:  As you wish.  You have many more butttons on your collar than the others, are you a leader too?
87ewas:
Matt: i think you are right i have beem sence that she is hiding something
Deela:
:: looks at map::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::smiles wryly::  Xia, some think so
Dracos:
Deela: And the areas of where the rebels settled
zyrc:
<Xia>  Rand:  What did you come to tell me?  ::looks around for her soup
Deela:
::goes back over to console::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::looks earnestly at Xia::  Xia, there is evidence that some may have escaped your planet's fate
Deela:
::looking at map in more detail::
zyrc:
<Xia> ::shocked::
Host Matt_vTrek:
::shudders in revulsion at the thought of someone purposely entering another's mind::   Krag: Do you have any idea what?
Dracos:
Deela: This is strange. If they had warp capacity and they new where the rebels settled, why did they self-destruct?
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Xia: it seems so
zyrc:
<Xia>  Rand:  That cannot be!  No one but I was evacuated.
Rich_Ayles:
::approaches Xia on the other side of her bed:: How are you feeling Xia ? I am concerned that your short sleep may be affecting your brain wave patterns.
Dracos:
Deela: Do you think it was a cultural death-wish?
Rich_Ayles:
XO: Sorry to interrupt sir.
87ewas:
::not sure but i feel it to it was strong
zyrc:
<Xia> ::represses fear::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Xia:  We are searching your planet's computer files at the moment
Dracos:
::noting his findings, Gyrax taps his comm badge::
zyrc:
<Xia>  Doc: Oh, I am sooo tired, Doctor...
zyrc:
<Xia>  Rand:  May I be of some service to you in your search, Rand?
Rich_Ayles:
::scans Xia with medical tricorder::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Xia:  after you were placed in stasis, a ship got away from here
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::looks at Xia::
Dracos:
*Rand*: Sir, we have located some interesting findings
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::considers how to handle this::
zyrc:
<Xia>  Rand:  A ship?  How could that be?  My people?  ::snuggles deeper into pillow::
Host Matt_vTrek:
Krag: evidently you are not as.. restricted.. as I with entering another's mind. Can you attempt to find out more from her?
Deela:
Gryax:  There appears to more information...  The Rebels left the planet but the general populous was not even aware of them....  The government knew of the rebels location...
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
*Gyrax* indeed?
zyrc:
<Xia>  Rand:  I am so ...confused...so...weary...
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Doctor:  I think we should let Xia sleep for a bit
Rich_Ayles:
::watches tricorder as bran wave patterns fluctuate wildly::
87ewas:
tSele: Possible but my telepaatiic ablly only work on other teletaphate
Dracos:
*Rand* Sir, would you have a moment to review them. I think this is important.
Rich_Ayles:
XO:Agreed
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
*Bridge* On my way
zyrc:
<Xia>  Rand:  I am so sorry that I cannot help you in some way...so weary.
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
*All* to the ready room
Host Matt_vTrek:
Krag: But you picked up something from Xia... Does that mean she is a telepath?
zyrc:
<Xia> ::falls asleep, terribly exhausted after the conversations::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::takes TL , appears in Ready Room::
87ewas:
Tsele: i am empathic and i pick up that see is not telling the turth or hidding something
Dracos:
Ens. Chopra: You have the bridge. Don't mess up the captain's apolstery
Rich_Ayles:

Host Cheryl_vTrek:
*All staff* report to RR ASAP*

87ewas:

Rich_Ayles:

Rich_Ayles:

Erminia_Camassa has joined the conversation.
Rich_Ayles:

87ewas:
rand: I also pick up some usual empathci reads from her sir>
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Doctor: violent?
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Doctor: have you seen evidence of violent leanings in our guest?
Rich_Ayles:
XO: it is hard to tell as they may be natural for this race of humanoid but it occurred when counsellor T'Sele was talking to her.....
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::looks at T'Sele::  your thoughts?
Host Matt_vTrek:
Rand: I was talking to Xia about the nature of her race...
zyrc:
<Xia> ::dreams return and she dreams of fields of flowers waving gently in the breezes::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
and?
Host Matt_vTrek:
Rand: I have discovered that they have a society based on "fatalism". They believe that everything that happens is fated to be.
Kelly_Quest has left the conversation.
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
But we have evidence of a few "rebels" not accepting
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::looks to Science::  The data analysis?
Deela:
XO:  We have found a stellar catographical map of where a group of rebels fled too.  It appears that they had warp capablities and weapons comparable to ours..
Host Matt_vTrek:
Rand: That would definately contradict with Xia's description of her culture.
zyrc:
<Xia>  ::the dream fades to the vision of a sun going supernova and the flowers frying to crisps, the bones of her people scattered about and then turned to ashes::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
::considers::

zyrc:
<Xia> ::she tosses::
87ewas:
::thinks to him self all this talk and now action::
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Gyrax?
Dracos:
Rand: For a people with such advanced technology....
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
speak your mind, Gyrax
Dracos:
Rand: Why would they have such a fatalistic mannerism?
Dracos:
Rand: Areas of the alien document were encrypted
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Gyrax:  Is it our place to question that?
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Ah, encryption
Dracos:
Rand: Places which explain their belief system
cyberfalcon has joined the conversation.
Dracos:
Rand: WHy would that be encrypted?
cyberfalcon has been made a participant.

All right
Host Cheryl_vTrek:
Gyrax:  I'm not sure, there is more here than meets the eye

Rand: My culture is technologically advanced yet considered primative in other areas 
Dracos:
Rand: Yet we do not covet our cultural icons in secret
