Summary:  The Avalon Crew, after searching the temple for a few weeks, are returning back to the main hall near the entrance with not so good news as to the location of the artifact.
Host A-AGM_JP says:
At this point in time, the Vulcan Artifact of Logic is nowhere to be found in the temple and tricorder readings don't show any signs of it.  Where could it be?

CNS: Can I help you?
XO_Commander_Serok says:
CO: Jut a thought Sir, what if the Grigari got here first?
CEO_ENS_Kinsale says:

Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:

CNS_LtCmdr_Jappic says:

CEO_ENS_Kinsale says:
CO:  Perhaps this artifact is UNDER us?  Or, perhaps this structure is the artifact itself?  I've been trying sounds, percussive vibrations and so forth.
Host CO_Capt_MacLeod says:
CEO:  I believe that the sensors on the Victoria might have a better chance of penetrating the surface, wouldn't you agree?
CEO_ENS_Kinsale says:
CO:  I'm game to try anything, sir.
XO_Commander_Serok says:

With both the Romulan and Vulcan Artifacts in their possession, there is only one more left to find.  We've always known that the Romulans and Vulcans are related, but what will the third piece of the puzzle have in common with the other two?  Have we seen the last of the Grigari?
