As he sat at Helm, his mind raced in two different ways, one being running a mental list of navigational procedures and two, ways he can prepare the ship so there are no surprises. An Idea forms and he turns toward the Daise' Dheno, seeing her mind was busy as well. He was about to say something to her when he saw her jump out of her thoughts and proceed to the Leih's office. He puts that idea on hold for the time being until the Daise' Dheno emerges from the Riov's Ready Room. He then turns to her
"Daise' Chief T'Stellam, I would like security teams posted around the ship, in case we should have intruders"
( I hope i got that right.. )

"Daise' Chief T'Stellam, I would like security teams posted around the ship, in case we should have intruders"
t'Stellam considered his request for a moment trying to decide whether he had no personal access to the reports filed by her or whether it was some type of test. She discounted the former. Surely if he was in command of the oira, then the information was also available to him. She turned to face him.
"Rekkhai. Teams are in place at all normal postings with additional teams assigned to outlying areas. These have been supplemented by Marine teams in all high risk areas. Do au wish to be sent a copy of the most recent report?"
She had made it clear now that the information was already on file. She watched for his reaction.

A slight nod was given as she had responded to his request that Security teams were already in place, supplemented by Marines in all the vital areas
"Le, that would be helpful. I commend you for your prompt actions"
He turned back to his console, tapping out some keys, attempting to gain access to the latest security reports. Finding he is unable to gain access from the gonai ( helm ), he turns and moves to the Riov's center seat. He keyed in his access codes, to see if they would work, attempting to gain access to the latest security reports

She went over in her mind what she had found out so far about the enriov and the admiral and mentally began composing the report.
Enriov Aehkhifv Selot
Expert tactician
He is bonded with six children, four males, two of which are adopted.
He is devoted to his family but speaks little of them.
He applied for his present post and takes great satisfaction in it.
He is precise, methodical, ruthless and cunning.
Outside interests include travel and puzzle solving.
He is strongly prejudicial against both the Vulcan and the Breen.
His eldest son has only recently announced his intention to take a Vulcan as his bondmate and renounce his citizenship. Selot disowned his son as a result of this decision and though his son has subsequently altered his decision to leave ch'Rihan, Selot has not reversed his.
Admiral James Newsome
Sees his service as a unique learning situation though was originally displeased to be assigned to Rihannsu space. He has now reversed his decision and has discussed bringing his family here.
Enjoys fencing, playing chess, skiing, classical music and water sports.
He has three children, all male. Ages 9, 12 and 15.
He is thoughtful and precise in his actions.
She organized the information as succinctly as possible and though she did not wish to draw any specific conclusions about the two officers, she added her own thoughts.
"Both Enriov Selot and Admiral Newsome are strongly connected to their careers and their families. Enriov Selot appears to personify those attributes associated with Fire elementals while Admiral Newsome appears to portray those of Air. Working together they have the potential to be both unique in their tactics and formidable in battle."
Reporting Officer,
Erein Lyretha t'Stellam
Daise'Dheno
Hoping that it would be sufficient, she sent the report to the Lieh, then sent a copy of the last Dheno report, including Kor's information, to Sahen.

T'meryl looked up as the command to report to the Riov's ready room. "Le Riov." she said into the com. She crossed the bridge to the door of the ready room, and signaled her presence. As the door opened, she stepped in and saluted, "Science officer, T'meryl, reporting as ordered, sir." She stood at attention, awaiting his orders.

"Enriov Aehkhifv Selot," he ponders as he awaits his science officers arrival. He hadn't thought of him in years yet the year he studied under him and was one of his teaching assistants was always in the fore. Tactics was the Enriov's gift and those who studied with him learned to live tactics. And now his old professor and mentor was on the other side. He would have to use everything he knew about Selot to beat him.
Looking at his screen he sees that his Daise Dheno had already pulled the information on both Enroiv. If nothing else she was efficient.
As he started to read the report he hears his chime and door open and the science officer walked in. He looked up as the Vulcan saluted. Returning he salute he studies her for few moments.
"I am not going to mince words here. I still feel you are at a disadvantage on a Rihannsu vessel. However I need your expertise in science. We are entering a new training ground. I want you to explore every inch of this area for any anomalies, abnormalities, as well as every inch of this area for hiding places for our prey. I will shortly announce to the crew what our mission will be. Until then I want you to give me as much data as you can. Is this clear? It may mean the success or failure of this mission."

T'meryl bowed and asked, " and if I need more access to areas of the computer than I now have, may I have permission to request it?"

She returned to the Dhiv late last night, she wished she could say her brief trip home was enjoyable. But the sadness remained with her. They were close enough to alllow this brief return when she got the message, that her second mother died. She was special to her and helped her when the time of first puberty began. Her birth mother was not well then and passed this task to Othava.
Now Othava is gone and its only a matter of time before Akeen dies as well. He was already showing the decreased interest in living, with his health failing rapidly. Not even the talk of battle, which she shared with him, or of life in the Imperial Guard gave him even a second of interest. When she left she looked at him with her thoughts closed. This would be the last time she saw him, in her heart she knew this.
It was not the time to take a leave of absence for family reasons. The time of the shakedown was fast approaching, her skills, knowledge and training was needed here. It would be something she could not live with if they did not pass this trial.
She would, however take time later and run her personal program. Only now did she come to understand how important those programs would become.
She finished her meal and then left for her office and the Marine training area.

Post by *Star Fleet Testing Facility* on May 11, 2007 8:39:35 GMT -5
The night duty officer at the testing facility, opened his messages for mid shift. He read each one and reacted according. But here was one he wished he had opened sooner, he could have used this to enhance Ejuil-a training.
He turned in his chair and faced his monitor.
The file for the RSE Dhivael, needed to be complied. It was a task he never enjoyed, actually it was tedious. He started to enter the opening information and now it was time to shift thur the bits and pieces. Entering the mundane, in one area, the important facts in another, etc, etc, etc.
This vessel was now 2 days out. He would need to set up approach scans as well. Now for the first of the Dhivael instructions. Due to his shift, the ones he sent while important and mainly set things up, never seemed as interesting as others.
He opened a channel.
"RSE Dhivael, you will now be observed as you approach the area for the next 2 days (44 Rihannsu hours of 110 minutes in length). you will now drop your cloak until instructed to do otherwise."
"Belak testing facility out, Arrian Hhirl Jareth give the second set of instructions on time."
He returned to the file set up for this vessel.

She arrived at her office and then entered. The settings she had she found comforting. She sat at her desk suppressing her grief and admonishing herself for having a need to do this. She turned to the mountains of communications, and reports that built up in her absence.
She sent the following communication to t'Stellum
We should meet before our arrival at the testing facility. I suggest a meeting in my office at your earliest convenience. Because of my recent dehydration, prolonged exposure to the heat, the meeting will need to be held here. I recommend a sweater or light coat.
Inform me when you'll be able to be here for the meeting.
Capt I Kor.
Alliance Fleet
Andorian Imperial Guard Representative

She was at her station, when she felt a subtle change in their course. She knew not many would feel this but her time at the helm, before tactics gave her an awareness of such subtle changes.
She noted the change and then paid no attention to it, if it were important enough she would be informed. She was standing with one hand behind her back looking out the VP when the second communications came in. This time it was open to the bridge personnel.
What concerned her was this one statement, "you will now drop your cloak until instructed to do otherwise." . Terrh had not said said a word, she would need to have authorization to drop it. It was the Leih, himself who said to raise the cloak and maintain it.
As the few seconds ticks away her anxiety grew. If they fail this it would be her fault. She turned and looked at Erie'Arrian Terrh Sahen, "Did you not hear the instruction from the testing facility. I need *your* authorization to disengage it. I will not be held responsible if this is counted as a failure. Now will you give the authorization or will I inform the Leih?"

Finally she finished shifting though the mountains of work which she found on her desk. She got up and left a message in the event that t'Stellum decided to stop by her office.
"Computer If Erien t'Stellum comes allow entrance, no security clearance for my documents."
She went to the armory and personally went over the inventory for the Marines. Finding it in full preparedness she took out her card for the demolitions locker and inspected as she joking referred to as her bag of tricks. She discovered many officer referred to them as the bad of tricks. When one thought of the reason it made more then enough sense. Satisfied that everything was order she closed the locker and secured it.
Leaning on the armory counter she filled in the report for the inventory. She had hoped Security had run a similar check or would before reaching the testing ground. She nodded at the Amory officer and then left for her office to drop off the Padd.

He was busily reading the latest security reports and the report on the Enriov and the Admiral when the hannam ( message ) came in from the testing facilty. He shifted his attention momentarily so he could listen to it then went back to reading before Veralen cut into his thoughts. He glanced up at her with a hint of amusement in his eyes, but no other expression
"Disengage cloak as per instructed. I shall inform the Leih of this action" He then lowered his voice so that only she can hear "If we fail, I will take full responsibilty"
His eyes stayed on her to gauge her reaction as he tapped a key on the center seat, activating the comm into the Leih's Office
"Rekkai, We have recieved intructions to disengage the cloak from the training facility as they wish to observe us as we enter the area. I have athorized the disengagement of the cloak. We are still on a heading for the Training Grounds at 1/4 impulse, in a 'zig-zag pattern"
He then waited for a response

This is a double post between MCapt Kor and Erien t'Stellam and takes place in Kor's office.
t'Stellam acknowledged Kor's message and sent back her intent to meet with her immediately.
Choosing not to wear anything apart from her standard uniform, she quickly arrived at Kor's office.
Kor had just returned from the armory when she saw t'Stellam at her door. She looked at her, "Thiptho lapth (greetings)" She entered her access code and they both walked in. "Please have a seat, are you sure you'll be warm enough? I can turn the heat up a little"
t'Stellam nodded her greetings in return. "Hann'yyo. There is no need for au to make any alterations to your own environment." She wanted to impart to the Andorian that simply because she is on a Rihannsu ship that does not require that she must give up her own traditions and comfort.
She seated herself. "What would au like to discuss?"
"We need to have coordinating plans that will work well together. There is a spider on my homeworld known for its unique webs. Our combined plans should be like that, easy enough for the prey to fall into, impossible to escape.
In order to do this we need to draw the design for the web together."
t'Stellam smiled in genuine amusement. "Very well illustrated."
Noticing her look of amusement Kor looked down then into her eyes. "Sometimes we tend to speak in ah", looks away for a moment "colorful illustrations. I will try not to" "We have a love for stories and tales." she hoped that would help to explain why she did that.
"I doubt it could have been as accurately conveyed by any other means. Please do not stop."
"I see the Marines placed at the far ends of web, out of sight but in postion. The Leih must be protected he is at the heart of the web. Its greatest strenght and weakness. I would place a team of Marines at the entrance to the jeffies tube into the oira, and then at each point of entrance."
"It is unfortunate that we did not have more opportunity to work together. There are many points at which we need to understand one another's methods and ideally our officers should be cross-trained in some of their duties. However, we were not given ideal circumstances."
Kor leaned forward and pushed a cup of Andorian tea towards her while listening.
"Holding these drills will allow us, with what limited time we have, to observe how well we can coordinate. Both goups will have to work together if they are to protect the target effectively. I have involved areas that are well known to one group but not to the other. Groups responding to the intrusion in this first exercise will be working in the areas the are unfamiliar with. Marines in engineering and Galae personnel on the Hangar Deck."
"In all areas of command, wheher it be a facility or ship there are areas of vulubility. As a Marine I saw severaI and I have circled them on this padd. As too your suggestion I am in aggreement. But I will keep several team on stand-by in case they do something similuar to Andorian practices, which is to involuve ground forces."
"It is what the Marines are trained for and excel in. I expect that part of the "test" to go quite smoothly."
She accepted the tea and took a sip, nodded her approval of the flavor and set the cup back down.
"Good I'm glad we are in agreement. I dislike having security in a combat situation even if only simulated."
t'Stellam stood. Though it had been a comfortable and enjoyable meeting, not being on the oira made her uneasy. "I will send the details of the exercise as soon as possible". She nodded. "Hann'yyo for the tea."
"You're welcome. I look forward to reviewing the exercise. I hope you were not to uncomfortable"
"It is a temperature that if nothing else, keeps one alert." She smiled again to show there was no animosity.
Kor stood and then tilted her head slightly, eyes downcast for a few seconds then looked her in the eyes. "Be well t'Stellam and may you find your way to the wall of heros where a vial is kept."
