Discussion With The Core

[Doc Holliday]

War Vessel Glacier, Above Planet Naaru, Omicron Delta, 1500 hrs.

Finally! Doc was getting his chance to address the Core. He didn't fear them but he did have a heavy level of respect for them. He was tired of hostilities between them and the Zoners but, it wasn't about that. He had an enterprise to run and his research involved travel in and through Omicron Delta. If in his talks with them that resolve could be reached, great. If not, he was there in the interest of medicine and research.
He found the ship in orbit of Naaru that he was supposed to find, the War Vessel Glacier.

"Core vessel Glacier, the is Dr. John Holliday aboard the Marshall Earp requesting docking clearance."
"Dr. Holliday, stand by for a ship scan," was the reply. After a minute or so he was called back, "You are clear, proceed to docking bay one."
Doc proceeded as instructed. While he was being auto-docked, he took a few minutes to prepare himself. He swore that he would never again wear an ambassador's robes but this was a good place for them. He locked his pistols in the safe. He was here to talk, not fight. Besides, he was getting older and had little desire for combat. Instead, he made sure everything was right about his robes before standing by the sliding doors to his hosts.

As expected, he was met with an armed guard. His hands were together in front of him, his hat affixed his head covering his shoulder length but well groomed hair as was his small beard and mustache. Having not been in the area in a very long time, he was respectful with his words, especially with the tension in the area.
"Gentlefolk, it is good to be here," he began, "You will find my hold full of medical supplies and food for you all. It is a token of my good will. You will find the cargo manifest on the table behind me."
The manifest included bio-stability monitors, elixers, pharmaceuticals and a good store of basic medical goods.

"Please, lead the way, Gentlefolk," he said kindly waiting for whatever was next.
