Before the Ambassador could say anymore Velaul's voice came over the commbadges,
[Aquila to Away Team we are attracting a lot of attention up here, all eyes on the planet are on us right now. It appears they want to know us better, or what we are made of.]
Brooks tapped his commbadge, "Brooks to Aquila, just keep everything calm up there. Be as diplomatic as you can be. Brooks out."
He closed the channel and said "Sorry Ambassador, do go on."
“The Federation Diplomatic Corps, in its wisdom, appears to think that living on Riani for ten years has made me into something of a native. They still see corruption, society dancing on the edge of war. They’re concerned that this planet has changed me more than I’ve changed it.” He gestured at the implants on the side of his head, as if to illustrate his point.
“I’ve pulled every string available to me to handle this situation quietly. The relationship between our governments is fragile enough as it is. It won’t withstand a scandal like this. Again, I apologize for bringing you into this mess rather blind.”
Captain Brooks looked at the Ambassador for a moment,
"Don't worry Ambassador, we wouldn't have been sent to assist if the Federation had given up on you. Problem with people sitting behind the desk thousand miles away means they don't actually see what is going on in real time. They only follow reports and the problem with that is when a situation like this as you say is fragile you can't say what you really need to otherwise it could cause a whole new set of problems."
Looking at both Kurasa and Talion he said,
"I am sure we will be able to find your replacement and then we can move on from there."
Dan knew the Ambassador was wanting to tell him more but clearly there was a reason for him holding back some information.
"If there is anything else you like us to do while we are visiting Ambassador let us know, we do have a gift to bring you from the Federation as a mark of respect of your ten years here. I thought you might like to come back to Aquila and have a little bit of a party to celebrate. I will also get one my officers show you around. She is a Ross class vessel and pretty well equipped for all kinds of scenarios."
