OOC SNIPOOC: No worries at all Kirt! It’s probably my fault to for not reading in deeply! I’ll go forward from here doing a better job I promise.
Lunan finally took the decision to try and open a channel to the Chimera, “=^= Lunan to Chimera, do you copy? =^=”
-Lt. Commander Lunan Farrah: XO-
OOC Cross posting again
=^=Chimera here Commander, go ahead,=^= came the reply to the XO’s Comm call
GMT Phoenix
”=^= Chimera, we have made contact with the local people of this planet. Please inform the Captain that this society is very much a pre-warp civilisation. Specifically, they seem to run their lives based on the use of Steampunk construction methods, if she’s available, I need to speak with Captain Andreassen as soon as possible.”
-Lt. Commander Lunan Farrah: XO-
=^=I’m here Commander, what’s up?=^= Freja’s voice came through on the comm call.
~Freja Andreassen~
At that moment another Mar’zek This one was Bright red came running up and Whispered something into Mal’i’s Ear her eyes went wide shouting orders in her native tongue other rebels began to rush about turning to the Away team she said “Come We have been found by the Commandants forces my men will hold them off for as long as they can we have to get to the escape boats Follow me We will hit the Commandants Island there is no more time for intelligence gathering!” she said as she ran to a tunnel waving the away team to follow herGMT Phoenix
”=^= Stand by, Captain, we have a situation down here. =^=” Lunan closed the channel and shot off at a jog, following behind Mal’i’ into the tunnel.

Keitah followed the Commander. Staying close behind him as they jogged through the tunnel. She certainly didn’t want to be captured again and definitely not by this Commandant force.
Naisyr, Counselor
Spartacus followed. It was time to move out again. He didn’t know exactly what they were doing. But, they were moving so he was going too.
“Do the Commandant’s forces know this area well?” The XO asked no particular rebel, clearly trying to keep both the Away Team and the rebels safe.
-Lt. Commander Lunan Farrah: XO-
“Well enough Come” Mel’i Said as she lead them on down the tunnel beside the away team was a squad of 11 Mar’Zek rebels
after a short time running they came out of the tunnel into a large natural cave inside this cave was a hidden bay where the rebels apparently kept a bunch of steamships all fired up and ready to head out to sea there were 4 of them roughly about 120 feet or 36.5 meters in length they had two square-rigged masts these had apparently been modified into steamships later having started their lives as sailing ships the masts and sail rigging was kept as an emergency backup on each of the ship’s sides were two large Paddlewheels
Mel’i ordered something and three of the 8 broke off hopping onto three of the boats “They will keep watch and will set the ships up for scuttling if the commandant’s forces breakthrough!” Mel’i Explained “In the event enough of my people show up to crew them they will flee to other safe houses,” she said as the other 8 hopped aboard one the name plate on the stern read Hinonga for the Starfleet officers in disguise there was something very comforting about that name and there was a bearing about the ship that felt Familiar in a way in fact the three Mar’zek seemed to smile knowing that the HInonga at least would live
the Mar’zek Rebels all raced about preparing the ship to leave

“Can we do anything to help prep the boats?” Lunan asked, taking a moment to find his balance.
-Lt. Commander Lunan Farrah: XO-
This type of craft called a boat and sat on water was an ancient concept to Keitah. On her planet they had something of the sort but way more advanced. As she saw the general structure and watched them prep it, doubts in her mind began to rise about it’s safety. “They look really old,” she commented, “Are they safe and secure for travel?”
Naisyr, Counselor
Torvalds examined the vessels, not for style, but for material quality and any signs of degradation.
“Old to somebody from the Federation, yes, but the vessels seem to actually be of a recent construction. The materials all seem to be either kept well or manufactured recently enough to show no signs of decay. I can’t say much as to whether they are actually capable of leaving their docks - vessel design at the Academy is specifically centered around spacecraft and aerial vehicles - but it will not be directly because of hull failure.”
