The Pelian Brief (Gorkon): Difference between revisions

[[The Pelian Brief (Gorkon)#Notable Characters|Agent Lynas]] took Lieutenant Commander [[Samira Neathler]], Lieutenant [[Cory Stoyer]]. Lieutenant [[Lephi]] and Ensign [[Tahna Meru]] to the local FedSec headquarters, where Tahna used their labs to analyze the samples taken from Bisul's residence. She learned that Bisul was poisoned by a powder made from the Gorak mushroom, an invasive species that was believed to be eradicated because it was highly poisonous to Pelians (but, notably, had medicinal properties for Vulcanoids). The team (minus Lynas), boarded a bus to follow leads on bookstores and restaurants Sylan and Bisul frequented together, but their bus was bombed and the scroll they found in the grotto was stolen. Lieutenant [[Lephi]] found them in the aftermath of the explosion, and they regrouped at The Burrow, a restaurant Sylan was known to frequent. They learned that Agent Lynas was also caught in an explosion, and agreed to meet him at his house, but when they arrived they found themselves caught in a trap with Lynas, set by a Pelian masquerading as Bisul and a Lady in Gray. Neathler, Stoyer, and Lephi engaged them in a shootout, scaring their attackers away, though Neathler fell injured by a mysterious weapon. They follow the fake Bisul outside, where he had raised a crowd of onlookers, back to the real Bisul's house. There were six life signs inside, and after throwing a phaser set to overload into the room and a brief struggle, they subdued the fake Bisul and others present. Fake Bisul was not working with them, however, he was attempting to poison the six gathered religious and political figures so he could consolidate power, just as he'd poisoned the real Bisul. With the murderer caught, they turn the investigation over to FedSec and local authorities.
