Eris on Cardamine

[Doc Holliday]

Doc smiled and nodded his understanding of the device. Taking a sip of his drink, he answered, "Rest assured, it's no homing beacon, no com device. I made sure of that before I implanted it. It also takes all of a few minutes to remove. It's no threat to anyone. Besides, the Coaltion has more problems to worry about than me. They're fighting with themselves nowadays as I understand. I made a trade agreement with them and nothing more."
He then turned back to Anje, "Neither the Order nor the Coalition....or anyone for that matter knows you're here......nor will they. If someone wants to persecute me for my attempts at understanding and seeking a peaceful co-existence with the Nomads then so be it. If they don't like the fact that I have decreed that any and all K'Hara ships may fly through or around Baffin as they wish, that's too bad for them."

"But listen, I'd like to make this meeting a positive one. I don't condone a lot of what the Order does. While they're bent on "saving humanity" and doing a lot of killing to do it, I'm the opposite. I didn't create Med Force Enterprises for death, I made it for life. With the exception of a few donations, I fund it entirely myself. Staff? They either learn to help all or they don't work for me....period."

He sat before Anje, taking a caring tone, "I built a special area aboard my flag ship, Med.Force.One. I built it so that Nomad research could take place in secrecy, not because I didn't want the Nomads to know but to keep any chance of saboteurs away."

He then poured himself another drink, offering Anje one as well. He looked up at her soothingly, "but the best meeting I had was here in Baffin when a K'Hara showed me the light. He also showed me the dark. It was that moment that I chose to advance my efforts. Good will needs to start somewhere. I'd like for it to begin with me."
