| Zivan nods and says, “Excellent. We would like to pursue a military alliance, against the Dominion, the Dai’Loq, and the Wabai Unity.” Mel winces and repeats, “I’ll pass that up to my superiors as well.” Seeking to defuse the sudden tension, Jessa jokingly asks Zivan, “So tell us the truth, when you learned of Marat’teer’s untimely demise, how did you react? An interpretive dance?” Mel groans but Zivan snickers. Mel then realizes her junior counselor’s ploy and tells Zivan, “I will inform my superiors of your requests, but the primary aim of the Federation is to sow peace.” Zivan retorts, “But you’re heavily armed.” Mel shrugs and says, “Not everyone shares our beliefs.” Ssleestak adds, “And not all Federation ships are this heavily armed.” | Zivan nods and says, “Excellent.

| - | Zivan looks away for a minute, and then admits, “There’s something else. Another reason we seek an alliance. Something’s coming captain. Something bad. I’ve heard from good authority that the vanguard of a massive swarm of ships is bearing down on us, and these monsters will swoop into a system, take what they want, burn everything else, and rape, kill, and eat whoever they can find – and not necessarily in that order. The N’Dari were an advanced civilization on the other side of the Dai’Loq Sphere. Twelve years ago, these ravagers swarmed their space and destroyed everything. The lucky few who escaped fled into the Dai’Loq Sphere for protection, which was granted per their Rite of Compassion.” | + | Zivan looks away for a minute, and then admits, “There’s something else.

| Mel nods as she recalls the Mother-Confessor’s warning from two months ago. Zivan admits, “The Dai’Loq destroyed the vanguard, but it cost them dearly. The N’Dari have enclaves within the Dai’Loq Sphere, but several came here.” Ssleestak pulls up several primers the Federation prepared for first contact situations, he motions to Mel and rumbles, “Alright if I share these?” Mel nods and Ssleestak uploads them into a nearby computer. In return, Zivan offers the footage of the Dai’Loq Sphere’s victory over the Dominion and jokes, “Do you want it set to music or no?” | Mel nods as she recalls the Mother-Confessor’s warning from two months ago.

| + | The monorail leads them to the mansion, and they are brought into a pleasure room first and then into the ‘champagne room,’ where they meet Zivan. They join her for lunch, and enjoy various Earth dishes, culminating in lasagna. Over the lasagna, Zivan has a frank conversation with Mel; the others chip in as needed. They cover Tizit history, Federation Secundus, the Dai’Loq, the NX-07 // | ||
