”..To create, to destroy, to conquer, to remake, to bring to life, so many things in a blink of an eye. Such is ours to design and bring to order..” Drudoc said as of quoting something or someone fondly.

”..Sorry, it’s a verse from an old Romulan scripture piece. Among my people of older belief is that we have a ‘path’ to be ‘among the stars’. What form that takes has always been of much debate among our people but the most obvious and favored was of a more conquering sort sadly. I admit at one time to subscribing to that until my time during the Dominion War. During such times, war I mean, .....changes you in ways you can’t expect and in what you experience. It was during this time I realized I wanted to one day be the first Romulan in Starfleet after serving with them during the War.” She said.

Drudoc seemed about to say more when a chirp from her comm panel over by the work station came to life. =/\= NE Rel’eck to Fleet Captain Andone, you got a comm call from a Commander Watson.=/\= The NE said.

”..Seems our improved meeting is at an end for now Ensign. If you could excuse me I’ll let you see yourself out and/or say goodbye to Tel’eck if you wish. I need to take this call. Commander Watson needs my input on Starfleet’s efforts to provide aid and supplies for trade from the Rol’tol colonies which broke away from the remains of the Star Empire in 2389..” She said rising and wiping her mouth off and straightening her uniform.

Sharah had been about to respond when the comm went off. “Thank you for lunch, Captain.” Sharah stood, straightened herself out and decided that she would tell Tel’eck bye. She quietly walked over to the door and knocked. When the door opened, “Hey Tel’eck, how’s the programming going? I’ve got to get back to work. But I wanted to say bye and thank you for letting me have lunch with you and your mom.”

”..Programming is going good! I’m almost done.” Tel’eck said then saw that Drudoc was on a comm call intently talking to someone. “..Guess Mom is giving you the boot huh? See I told you something would come up boring with you or her.” She said with a chuckle. “..Anyhow, thanks again for stopping by with us. It’s fun having guests over!” She stated holding out a hand to shake. Despite her young teenage age her grip was strong and confident for her age.

“If you have time later, come by, I have a project in the arboretum I could use help with if your up for it.”

”..Oh? I’ll see what I can do!” Tel’eck said smiling.

Drudoc meanwhile seemed to be getting into a slight arguement with the Commander on the screen. Arguing over requisition of supplies, and what is appropriate for trade for high grad dilthium from the Rol’tol colonies that the Romulan refugees didn’t need.
