I don’t know why we were attacked. We are on an important, but personal task.

You are a long distance from Cait, and not with the entourage that would normally accompany a clan Patriarch.
L’Tyru

A strategy that might have gone poorly had our ship not been in the region.

You have received the hospitality of our vessel, the services of our Sickbay and our Engineers. Was there a reason your vessel was potentially a target, Patriarch?
CdrEdraCrow

— 1/27/2026 9:33 PM
::raises a brow at his abruptness::
Lt Cmdr Millie Stepanova, Couns. — 1/27/2026 9:34 PM
I believe that two of your crew are still in our Sickbay being treated for their injuries–thanks to the help of our medical team. ::indicates the medical officer::
CdrEdraCrow

— 1/27/2026 9:35 PM
::nods:: And we are trying to find a motive behind these attacks, so that you or anyone else are no longer targets, so if there is any information you can give us, it would be helpful, and we can help you get on your way.
Asst Med Officer Thomas Seals

:: Nods back:: Yes, two are finishing up. The injury I am more worried about was L’Tyru, Patriarch of Clan Bataal. Please be careful pacing.

Our mission is personal. I don’t see how any would want to attack us because of it.
Cmdr. Statzia G’Karet
APP
— 1/27/2026 9:38 PM
Perhaps because you are a Clan Patriarch, and left yourself exposed without an escort?
::turns to K’Naut:: How much damage did the Patriarch’s ship sustain?
L’Tyru
APP
— 1/27/2026 9:40 PM
Nonsense! No one on Cait knows that I left.
CdrEdraCrow

::nods to Seals, appreciative of the medical report::
Lt Cmdr K’Naut, Chief Engr — 1/27/2026 9:42 PM
The Patriarch’s ship was beat up pretty badly. It will take 3 or 4 days to complete repairs.
CdrEdraCrow

— 1/27/2026 9:44 PM
perhaps this was a random attack, then. Patriarch, was there any contact before they fired?
L’Tyru
APP
— 1/27/2026 9:44 PM
3 or 4 days?!? Is that how you treat a superior, scion of G’kar?
Cmdr. Statzia G’Karet
APP
— 1/27/2026 9:45 PM
Patriarch, I’ll see that you treat my crew with the utmost of respect. You are a guest aboard our ship, and we are doing you the courtesy of discretion.
Lt Cmdr K’Naut, Chief Engr — 1/27/2026 9:45 PM
::shrugs:: You should have taken a bigger ship, Honored One.
Cmdr. Statzia G’Karet
APP
— 1/27/2026 9:46 PM
The alternative– ::gives a glance to Edra:: Is to take you to the nearest Starbase and inform your homeworld of your location…for your safety, of course.
CdrEdraCrow

Cmdr. Statzia G’Karet
APP
— 1/27/2026 9:47 PM
Or we could set you back aboard your ship and wish you the best– though our Tactical department would likely discourage this course of action, in case that unknown attack group comes back. It is not our first time encountering them in this area.
L’Tyru
APP
— 1/27/2026 9:49 PM
::holds up his hands:: Let’s not be hasty. There’s no need to go to a starbase or contact Cait. We can wait for repairs to be completed.
Ens Einar Bowman Tactial — 1/27/2026 9:49 PM
Once those ships entered warp we couldn’t track them with Long Range sensors, I wouldn’t recommend any of us try to go it alone
Cmdr. Statzia G’Karet
APP
— 1/27/2026 9:50 PM
::nods:: Then, perhaps we can dispense with the runaround, as the hu-mans call it, and allow us to assist.
L’Tyru

I apologize. We are grateful for your assistance.
CdrEdraCrow

::leans forward:: I’m glad to hear that. We’re happy to get you back up to speed. Please let us know if there’s any other assistance you need. In the meantime, is there anything else you can tell us about who attacked you? Did anything seem outof the ordinary?
Or did anything stand out as odd to you?
L’Tyru
APP
— 1/27/2026 9:55 PM
Nothing that I can think of. We were cruising at warp when they pounced on us. They took out the warp drive first.
Lt Cmdr Millie Stepanova, Couns. — 1/27/2026 9:55 PM
Any communications from the vessels?

I suppose. I will instruct my captain to give you what you need.
Ens Einar Bowman Tactial — 1/27/2026 10:00 PM
I’ll have our logs compiled and brought over, we are also analyzing the attack on our side and it seems they were focusing on secondary systems once we were engaged
Almost like they were more interested in taking the ship rather than destroying
Cmdr. Statzia G’Karet
APP
— 1/27/2026 10:01 PM
Have Emma compile her scans as well. CELIA can start on the comparitive analysis once we receive the information from the Caitian ship.
CdrEdraCrow

Good plan. ::looks to L’Tyru:: In the meantime, do you need quarters here while we help with repairs, or are you comfortable on your ship?
