Jez wasn’t sure what was happening beyond two groups that appear to love engaging in violence to achieve power and don't care who gets hurt in the process. Jez looked at the General with a look of disgust and pity, but then it occurred to her that maybe the General was an unwilling pawn in this whole mess. Maybe this was the only way the Legitimate Government of Riani, could ask for Federation’s help?
Jez stood watching Commander Velaul , the Commander was like a Chess Master studying the General and his words, anticipating his next move, in many ways the Commander reminded Jez of her Grandmother, a straight forward no nonsense kind of a woman, a powerful force of nature.
Jez suddenly recalled the saying, Si vis pacem, para bellum, ("If you want peace, prepare for war") , the well-known quote attributed to Roman author Vegetius. It suggests that a strong defense is the best way to deter aggression and maintain peace, emphasizing the importance of military strength for discouraging conflict. However, some argue that true peace requires more than just military might, highlighting the importance of justice, understanding, and peaceful intentions.
Jez, couldn’t help but think that maybe what was needed was a small break, “Excuse me Commander perhaps we should take a small break, you know get something to eat and come back to this from a fresh perspective?” Said Jez, hoping that the Commander would pick up on the hidden meaning in Jez’s words, suggesting that the Away Team should talk in private and confer with the Captain and see what he has to say.
