On arrival at Agurtha, Fleet Captain Nicholotti determined that her skills would be necessary on the ground, brooking no argument from either her First or Second officers, who remained on the ship. She felt that it was necessary both for the medical, political, and diplomatic reasons. Oddly, Captain Walker remained quiet, not arguing the point at all. Security prepared for the difficult task of guarding the medical staff while in the hazmat suits, as the doctors prepared to combat an unknown illness. | |||
The away team was met by the acting director of finance of Agurtha, and his "aide", who's actions lead many to believe him to be related to the Tal Shiar if not actively a member.

Shockingly enough, the Tal Shiar Commander agreed. | |||
