The Zenarch - A Zoner Agora at Mal's

[Quiron]

"I truly understand your situation with the Gauls" he started with a noticable sigh, "one of the hardest things in life when you try to resolve problems with talks but the opposite parties put their fingers in their ears. We have to bear the same difficulties due to certain threats in the Omicrons..." he spaced out a bit. "But our transports usually pay a lot more than their vital supplies."

Quiron turned to Doc Holliday. "As I am a Gran Canarian born man, I have heard a lot about your humanitarian activities Sirius-wide and I highly respect you for it. Your reputation assures me that the vessel in question wouldn't be abused. But despite all of your goodwill, serious problems can occur." he stopped a bit for considering his speak. "My fear comes from the thought that Gallia may will learn about the Leviathan's existence and infiltrate in your ranks to steal the technology. Or simply come and take it by brutal force. My whole body starts shaking come to think of they are holding such a war machine."

He turned to the window to see the space. "And as I said to your associates before, the Royalists are not the only one, who concerns us. Far be it from me to judge your allies as I don't know them well enough, but greediness or despair can change the greatest men or women from the basics. Also, I think that not a single Zoner will be in safe if the existence of the ship be revealed. Our ill-wishers may overthink that we have other warships and technologies and the witch hunt would begin against our kind. I have already experienced being on the wrong side of the gun and I would like to avoid it as much as I can."

Quiron turned back Doc. "Mr. Holliday, my conclusion about this complex matter is that we, the Zoners could loss far much more than we may gain. I feel it too risky to put that vessel into Baffin. As such a ship is being under our custody, we have to hold responsibility for the whole Zoner community. I truly sympathize with you according to Gallia and if I listen to my heart, I would made my recommendations to our leadership to give you a green light, but we should keep ourselves rational and cool headed."
