Ship's Log, Stardate 11511.22, Tio Ayidee recording.  The revival process has started, and so far it is at a controlled pace.  We hope that we can find them answers on how to move forward.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Resume Mission>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

SO_Expendable says:
::helping the engineering teams and coordinating the science teams efforts::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::In the control room where the computers are, watching Artang scramble about::

Host Artang says:
::In control room, watching the crew work their stations.:: Crew: Make sure you have full data on the beings in stasis, until we get a few answers on how we're going to handle this I don't want to end up digging ourselves too deep a hole here.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: How can we help?

SO_Expendable says:
::hears the CO and thinks:: Self: Well, so far we are up to our knees on this matter... ;;smiles and goes back to work::

Host Artang says:
CNS: Right now we're tring to see just what happened here.  Step after that is to figure out how we survive.  I've got one crew going to check supplies but after this long?  Yeah, even the seeds probably have disintegrated.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Artang: I hate to be the bearer of even more bad news but there's nothing left of your supplies but dust.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Looks a CTO:: Artang: Yeah, we found one of your storage areas, nothing much there but dust.  However, we can supply you with food.  That is if we can make whatever it is your people like to eat.

Host Artang says:
CTO: That's what I expect.  But I'd rather have one of our people look. No offense but we're more familiar with our supplies.   And don't have many more options.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Artang: I understand. I didn't get very far in my explorations.

SO_Expendable says:
Artang: I suggest to personally check the information on your supplies from the computers... After all this years, maybe the data have been altered somehow.

Host Artang says:
SO: Yes, they are going to be checked.  I can only spare the one crew member now, but we will send more once the system's operation is checked.
CNS: That would be appreciated, but we have nothing to trade for such help.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Artang: We're not asking for anything.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: I told you, we want nothing in exchange.  It's our pleasure to assist you in whatever way we can.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Artang: It's what we do.

SO_Expendable says:
Artang: We are here to assist you, not to rip you off.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Artang: That is correct.  We can help you get back in order.  We hope that will lead to friendly relations with your people, but there is no cost.

Host Artang says:
All: I have no choice right now but to trust that.  But how much can you really handle?  How big is your ship?

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: We have many ships in Starfleet.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: ...some of which are on route to our location.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Artang: And there are several relief vessels already on the way.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: They’re bringing more food and supplies for you and your people.

Host Artang says:
All: For right now I'll just keep those you have revived up.  There are more ships coming with supplies does not mean there is enough here.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: Is there anything special in the Pertel diet that we should know about?  What is it you like to eat?

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Artang: Just how many of your people are in this....station?

Host Artang says:
CNS: Our most universally eaten food is called B'lang, but I'm not sure how to even describe it  what would the name do you after all this time?
CTO: We had 50,000 put in stasis.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: Is B'lang animal, vegetable or mineral?

SO_Expendable says:
::looks for the information on B'lang on the alien database::

Host Artang says:
CNS: It's a mix of animal and vegetable.  There is no way you could have that in your ship's stores, though.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Artang: We can make it though.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CO: <whispered> 50,000.  We're gonna need more ships.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
CTO: That was assumed, and others are on the way already.

Host Artang says:
CTO: Make it how?  All our supplies are long gone, and you wouldn't have most of the ingredients.

SO_Expendable says:
::whispers:: CTO/CNS: Lot's of B'lang will be needed to feed 50000 people...

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: It think Q'ten means we can make something similar if we knew B'lang’s chemical make up.

Host Artang says:
CNS: That would be a neat trick, But it would take months.  Hopefully we can show you enough data to make something close enough.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Artang: Molecular reconstruction.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: My species has a diet of both meat and vegetation too.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
Artang: For now let us leave it at "we can make it" and we'll get into how later.  There are other concerns we must concern ourselves with and move carefully with.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Artang: Of course there's always the possibility that we could find a suitable alternative.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CTO: There's lots of different foods in the galaxy, must be something out there they'll like.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: Who knows, maybe they even have a taste for gagh?

SO_Expendable says:
All: From what I could gather from the database, B'lang could be easily replicated with our technology, so that's one less worry for your people, Artang.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CTO: I tried gagh. I didn't like it.  It's not the flavor.  I just couldn't stand the way they wriggle around in your mouth before chewing.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: that's how you know it's fresh ::grins.::

Host Artang says:
CNS: I have to agree with your friend on that one.

SO_Expendable says:
All: B'lang may taste different, from original, a little more salty, but I think it will be within your tolerance standards if you stick to the original recipe... ::realizes he sounded like a chef instead of a science officer::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
SO: Original recipe or extra crispy?

SO_Expendable says:
SO: ::blushes:: Original recipe with a mild Federation ingredients reminiscent flavour.

Host Artang says:
SO: I'm sure it will be acceptable.  At least until we can get things figured out.  There must be...no, I...I don't know.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: What's the matter?

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Artang: tell us about your world. If we're to find you a new world to call home, it would be nice if we knew what to look for.

Host Artang says:
CNS: Where to start on that list?  I just keep thinking we can find some outreach of our empire, but the odds of that are pretty slim I suppose.

SO_Expendable says:
::hears the word Empire...::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: Yes, I'd say they were.  Shouldn't you focus on what's next for the Pertel and not so much about what has happened.

Host Artang says:
CTO: It is home.  I have no idea what you have to compare it to but the light, the temperature, the humidity, it is as this station is.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CTO: It is quite humid in here.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: So a jungle type planet?

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CTO: More like a swamp like planet.

Host Artang says:
::Taps a few consoles.::  All: The screen behind you has an image of our world.  Not quite at its peak, but about 5 years before we went into stasis.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
::Looks at the pictures of the Pertel homeworld::

ACTION: An image of a large, rainy planet appears with a large city surrounded by fields.

SO_Expendable says:
Artang: Was this your capital city?

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: Perhaps we could give them Ferenginar?  Might help the property values.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Self: Rain, large city, surrounded by fields.  All: We could settle them in London.  ::Smiles::

Host Artang says:
SO: No, the Directorate of Art complex, the capital would be...here.

ACTION: The image changes to a larger city with lights fading out into the distance and numerous roadways heading in and out.  The rain persists however.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: It's a beautiful city.  ::Still looking at the screen::

SO_Expendable says:
Artang: Interesting... :still the word Empire resounding in his head:: ::with a cautious but curious tone of voice:: Nice for an Empire principal city...

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
Artang: You had an entire Directorate devoted to Art?  That's interesting.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
SO: See what you can find in our databases for worlds that could fit this culture.  Even ones in need of Terraforming.

Host Artang says:
CTO: Yes, a place to put them together and let them share ideas.

SO_Expendable says:
CO: ::turns to the Captain:: Aye, sir, Immediately. ::goes back to a corner of the room and starts taping on his PADD::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
SO: The right planet should be uninhabited.

SO_Expendable says:
CNS: Indeed, Counsellor.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
SO: With plenty of natural resources.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
SO: ...and nothing on the planet that might eat them.  :Smiles::

SO_Expendable says:
::whispers:: CNS: I assume a big diversity on insects on the low steps of the food chain  ... ::smiles::

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CTO: Mmmm, dragonflies, yummy.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: I'm afraid I'm not familiar with dragonflies.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
CTO: Didn't they teach you anything about Earth in Klingon grade school?  I know stuff about Qo'noS.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: Of course they did, but they didn't cover every little detail.

CNS_Ens_Daniels says:
Artang: Don't worry, it will all work out.  You'll see.

Host Artang says:
CNS: I hope so.  But yes, we'll see.

CTO_LTJG_Q`ten says:
CNS: And it's not as if what they did teach us was focusing on the ghewmey* of Earth.
