WHO: Prince Gorak
WHERE: The other ambassador suite, Suid Sidal...

Meanwhile, at the other ambassador suite, the podquids finished shredding what remained of Pramie’s men and moved on in search of more food. Gorak looked at the carnage, kicked some body parts away from threshhold, and locks the door again.

Gorak: "By my ancestors, that was very impressive ambassador. But, I am afraid your, uh, boys took some casualties as well…and make take even more before this is done."

The ambassador burped and farted his response from somewhere within the writhing mass of his personal attendant podquids that remained behind.

Translator: "Not. Problem. Water. Getting. Crowded. Fun. Making. More. Soldiers."

Gorak: (smiling) "Indeed. If you don’t mind ambassador, I am going to help myself to your first aid kit and then take a shower in the restroom."

Translator: "We. Not. Use. Restroom. All. Yours."

Gorak calls the bridge first and tells them to pull back the security guards or else they will be attacked by podquids. Instead, he wants the guards to block off deck 5B. Detain anyone trying to get in or out of it and to use lethal force if necessary. Gorak also expresses concerns about the marines. He doesn’t trust their part in all this. The science officer assures them that the marines are still in Stand Off status and only the current captain, Gorak, can release their weapons.

Gorak is satisfied and goes off to take his shower.
