8:14 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: can be seen working at one dedicated Science console, going through gathered information on Reman ship.
8:15 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: is at the conn, reading through reports on the ship’s functions. She’s particularly interested in the latest reports from the science labs and tactical.
8:17 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Commander, the residual energies of the mycelial corridor are interfering with direct scans of Reman vessel. We must consider sending an away team at some point.”
8:19 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: I could send a message to the Republic to ask if the ship is theirs.
8:20 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Taht would be a prudent course of action.”
8:22 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: looks out onto the Reman ship, still sat there unmoving “Indeed. Forward on a copy of our mission reports as well. We suspect the ship may have been reported missing or destroyed six years ago.”
8:22 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Let me compile the reports. One moment, please.”, he says, tapping quickly.
8:22 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: Yes, Captain. In the meantime, it seems the only way we’l learn more is by moving closer.
8:23 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: leans over the console and attempts to send a message to the Republic inquiring about the Reman ship. Once SOREK finishes his reports, she attatches them and sends. "It is possible it will take them some time to reply. We may not get an answer in time.
8:24 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Attachment is ready, Miss Shallas. You may proceed at Your leisure.”
8:25 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: Well whether we know who they are or not, there’s a potential they’re in distress regardless. Helm, take us in, let’s see if the corridor’s abilities are still occurring."
8:26 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: Sent.
8:26 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: moves close to the arc, rerouting some of the science there.
8:27 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: moves over to the helm to take the conn, steering the vessel in towards the Reman warbird. With no speed set, she opts for half impulse.
8:28 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: FX | As the Siva approaches at half impulse, she crosses the boundary of the corridor, and the vessel briefly shakes as gravity distorts and reasserts itself.
8:29 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: checks the shield emitter systems.
8:29 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: FX | Those of the crew unused to natural gravity may even feel a slight dizziness or discomfort.
8:29 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: continues on course, attempting to scan the Reman vessel as the Siva draws closer. She keeps an eye on the ship as the disturbance occurs.
8:30 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: No troubles from the disturbance so far, Captain.
8:31 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “What would be the risks of towing the vessel?”
8:31 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: FX | While not causing any troubles, the astrogator would read a speed of almost warp 3, despite the Siva very much being locked to impulse speeds.
8:31 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: I suggest we get more detailed information before attempting a tow - They may be too damaged for that.
8:31 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: ..Or perfectly intact and not in need of a tow.
8:32 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: frowns at the instrument, and attempts to bring the Siva to wthin near scan range. “..Curious. The instruments read warp three. But we’re clearly not at that speed.”
8:32 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: It’s all speculation until we reach the ship.
8:32 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “I will attempt another lifesign scan.”
8:33 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Warp 3?! Curious. I was not aware the mycelial rifts can produce such an effect.”
8:33 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: There’s a lot we don’t know about them, other than their links to subspace, that’s why the Lukara’s weapon was so dangerous.
8:35 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “I will definitely dedicate my time to background reading on all this.”
8:40 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: squints at the controls. The ship occasionally heaves as Lyna and the helmsman are forced to make adjustments.
8:40 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: ..strange. I’m correcting for gravity interferences. But sensors didn’t detect a source of gravity. Did we scan for black holes?
8:41 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “I shall initiate the lateral sensors for that particular assignment.”
8:44 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “These readings are…”, he pauses. “… show an indication of a black hole… or at least something that leaves similar effects.”
8:44 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: Could that reman warbird have been part of a fleet?
8:45 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “I would infer some kind of pulsar, rather than a black hole. Singularity similar to artificial one used by Romulan drives.”
8:47 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: I doubt the Republic would have given up looking for an entire fleet.
8:47 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: It’s possible though.
8:49 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: Well, either way, I can manouver around the disturbances.
8:50 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: ..But they pose questions of their own.
8:50 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “I am feeding lateral sensor data into the conn.”
8:55 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: attempts to run known models of wormholes and other Einstein-Rosen bridges on the sensor data received thus far to try categorise the anomaly.
8:55 [/color][STOIC] Kara@S.J.Brex: =C= This is Commander Blake of the USS Siva forwarding our mission logs to the Romulan Republic Command under a request for information. We are attempting to render aid to a Reman vessel within the T’Ong Nebula. We suspect the vessel may have been reported as either missing or destroyed 6 years ago. Do you have any information you can share on this vessel?
9:00 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: Commander Shallas, these disturbances, do they pose a risk as we head deeper in?
9:00 [/color][STOIC] Passio@optoprime101#5730: This is Commander Passio Tar’nin of the RRW Passionate Phoenix. Command is attempting to access our information on the missing vessel. In the meantime, my crew and I are coming to help. Just in case.
9:01 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: Yes, Captain. But since they are stationary, we can manouver around htem with due caution.
9:03 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: Very well, I trust in your abilities.
9:04 [/color][STOIC] Kara@S.J.Brex: Commander Tar’nin, I appreciate the assistance. Please note that there are gravitational and navigational anomalies, we are transmitting a flight plan so you can avoid them.
9:04 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Curious. It seems I might have to allow the deployment of Ensign Davin’s ECHO-5 protocol sooner than I anticipated.”
9:05 [/color][STOIC] Passio@optoprime101#5730: Thanks for the flight plans commander. What are we looking at so far?
9:06 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Ensign Davin’s still-unrefined protocol which is dedicated to better allocation of noise filtering, Commander.”
9:09 [/color][STOIC] Kara@S.J.Brex: The vessel appears to be stuck in an anomaly with a mycelial signature. It may also be linked with the T’Ong Corridor anomaly. We used a phased pulse to force it open unintentionally that might be the cause of some of these navigational hazards.
9:10 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: transmits a series of sensor logs to PASSIO, essentially showing the contour of a reman warbird near the centre of a recent flare.
9:13 [/color][STOIC] Passio@optoprime101#5730: Ah. Hm. This extra-dimensional stuff always makes my head spin… Do we have any way to reach it?
9:14 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: …Impulse?
9:15 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: Very well, keep me updated as we travel in, Sorek, can you set up a link with the Romulan vessel’s science department so we can compare data?
9:15 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Yes, Commander. I will send a request and share all the information compiled thus far.”
9:17 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: Yes, Captain. We remain on course to the warbird. Sensors should become more accurate soon.
9:19 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: My science team will check over your data and send you ours in the meantime. Corowyn - er, Subcommander Edelweiss - has a good head for this kind of thing.
9:22 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “What is Subcommander’s opinion on all this?”
9:26 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: nods. PASSIO’s warbird might recieve many transmissions as Lyna works to establish a direct connection between the two ships
9:27 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: Well, for the first time in a while, she’s not sure what to make of this, either…
9:28 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “I have attempred to run some modelling on known space-time bridge systems but computer has not found anything thus far.”
9:32 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: My team is trying to cross-reference the anomaly with some old files regarding singularity core tests. Nothing so far on that end, either, though…
9:32 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: What about an exposed or damaged singularity?
9:33 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: Given the other anomalies both in the nebula and whatever a micelial rift might throw into the mix, maybe that’s causing these effects?
9:33 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Subcommander, a thought occurs. Have Remans ever attempted to recreate mycelial weapon? Their leader Obisek was… fond, shall we say, of its thalaron counterpart.”
9:35 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: Elements, I hope not. I almost lost my sister to that damn thing…
9:35 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: I mean, I’d rather Obisek have it than that Petaq J’mpok, but not by much.
9:36 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Interesting comparison.”
9:39 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “If not weaponising it, what were they doing?”
9:39 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: It does bring up a thought, though. The Remans and the Elachi don’t exactly get along. Maybe they were looking at recreating the negative effects the weapon had on Mycelial space…
9:40 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “That would be… troublesome for the Alliance.”
9:40 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: It’s all speculation until we get answer from the ship.
9:44 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “That we can agree upon. Perhaps a joint away team?”
9:44 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: Ten minutes to transporter range. The anomalies are getting more erratic, so it wil ltake more time to manouver around them
9:45 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “I shall continue mapping them.”
9:46 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: Very good, keep us steady and provide updates to the Romulan vessel
9:49 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Understood, Commander.”
9:50 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: Passio opens her comm unit and speaks into it.
9:51 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: Ruby, keep a security team on standby. Something about this rubs me the wrong way. (A pause) Awesome, thanks babe, love you!
9:51 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: FX | As the Siva reaches the Reman vessel, the vessel appears to be embedded within the mycelial rift, but the rift itself appears to be much smaller than the anomalies would have suggested.
9:52 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: FX | The occasional arc of lightning strikes wildly into the nebula from the edges of the rift, before sweeping back and impacting the Reman vessel at its centre
9:52 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: ..She’'s definetely trapped in the rift, Captain. At least, I am assuming that is not on purpose.
9:53 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: Can we hail them now that we’re closer?
9:53 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: performs the Picard Maneuver.
9:54 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: attempts to hail the Reman vessel, indeed.
9:54 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: ignores the look she’s given. She’s used to it by now.
9:55 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: Attention Reman vessel, this is Commander Kara Blake of the USS Siva. We are going to attempt to rescue your vessel from this rift.
9:58 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: `…No response, Captain. They’re not answering hails.
9:58 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: attempts to scan the vessel’s environment to see if it remained healthy for Remans.
10:00 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: ’s lips thin as her fingers dance along the controls.
10:01 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: ..Captain. Several sections of the hull have vented atmosphere. No readings further in the ship.
10:01 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: continues on modelling the anomaly.
10:01 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: But it’s possible their crew is incapacitated. ..Or dead
10:02 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “After six years, it would not be a suprise.”
10:03 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: ..I should hope they havn’t spent six years like this.
10:03 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: …Is it possible for them to have fled into Mycelial Space? The rift has practically cleaved the ship in two.
10:03 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: Perhaps. But we should at least find out what did happen to them.
10:04 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “how would they nourish themselves in there?”
10:05 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: You say there’s vented sections of the hull, is their integrity high enough to lock on a tractor beam?
10:05 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: attempts to determine just that by scanning the hull integrity.
10:06 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: No idea. But I’d also wager they wouldn’t have known that before jumping in. Assuming the transfer attempt didn’t kill them, anyway.
10:06 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: Checking now. But captain, towing the ship in it’s current position is hazardous in the extreme.
10:06 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: If the Remans have taken refuge in the mycelial realm, they may not be able to return, and there is no telling this rift will remain intact if we remove the vessel.
10:06 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: ..I also cannot begin to speculate whether these…Funghi..Are pulling on the ship themselves. If so, it may be ripped apart by two forces.
10:06 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: Long story short, you’d be gambling.
10:07 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: Would it be safe to send an away team in EV suits?
10:07 [Local] Passio@optoprime101#5730: Safer, I guess. Safe is relative, here…
10:08 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: Indeed.
10:08 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: Very relative. But safer for the Remans, yes.
10:09 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: Very well. Is it possible to use the transporters?
10:09 [Local] Sh’Lyna Shallas@isabeldawn: I see no impediment to transporters.
10:11 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Then I shall lead an away team, Commander.”
10:12 [Local] Kara@S.J.Brex: Very well. I’ll give you an hour to investigate, then we’ll pull you back.
10:12 [Local] Sorek@xander#2039: “Understood.”
