 Notes from the Admiral:

 You guys really need to get off Coro and go exploring Xanadu while
 you have a chance.  ;)

 See you all next week!  :)


 Sim Title: "Crowded House", Part 2

 Teaser and Pre-Sim:
 -------------------
 Lt. Commander Jim Owens picks up Dr. Patricia Luisa Lopez, who has
 recently emigrated from the Milky Way to M64.  Dr. Lopez is a
 theoretical physicist, who is surprised to learn that she is needed
 in Xanadu, though she is not initially told why.  Owens gets Lopez
 on her way to Xanadu aboard Reor'sa's first slipstream packet, Arrow.

 During the Sim:
 ---------------
 Xanadu prepared for its "Beckmann translation" and those aboard
 Coronado and otherwise inside the asteroid-starship braced
 themselves for whatever this might mean.  Meanwhile, those outside,
 including the Task Group staff aboard Kelaka, either rushed to get
 within Xanadu's hull or elected to remain outside the facility for
 the translation.  Among the latter was Kelaka herself; Rear Admiral
 Lora Kor made it clear that he wasn't leaving the system without
 first rescuing the escape pods ejected from Panache before her
 destruction.  Coro's Wraith squadron, however, did make it back into
 Xanadu in time, as did the majority of other Defender craft in the
 region.  U.S.S. Vanguard remained behind as well to ferry those
 ships that couldn't make it inside in time.

 For those that did make it, the translation wasn't very much fun. 
 Those that could watch the singularities during the transit reported
 that either the singularities moved, or Xanadu moved "along them,"
 like a bead on a string.  However, those reports only came
 afterwards.  During the translation, those aboard felt as if they
 had pins and needles across every part of their bodies; some
 reported feeling "stretched," as if their skin had become very thin.
 The experience wasn't pleasant for anyone aboard, but some took it
 even more badly -- Sickbay was soon full of people whom the
 translation either knocked out or unbalanced.  In addition, every
 Reorsan Braid aboard Coronado "went to pieces," breaking into their
 component cords, as they do when they encounter something extremely
 surprising or frightening.

 When the transition was over, Xanadu reemerged near the J043 system,
 coincidentally the same system that Coronado was to rendezvous with
 M.R.F. Onyx in.  At first, many aboard worried that there might be
 another spatial distortion here, but relaxed when it turned out that
 there was no evidence of this.  It was the closest system to our
 previous location, so perhaps that had something to do with why
 Xanadu reemerged there.  In any case, it didn't take very long for
 Kelaka and Vanguard to finish their work, and rejoin Coronado, Onyx,
 and Xanadu in J043.  During this trip, Commander Tal shared what she
 could about what she believes Rear Admiral Wallace's motives might
 be.  In particular, she guessed that whatever is in the Fourth
 Chamber must be a source of tremendous power, power that Wallace may
 feel that it is his duty to protect.

 Doctor Reed managed to bring around most of those rendered
 unconscious, though some of the more serious cases took some doing. 
 He was unable to do anything for the Braids at all.  Meanwhile, more
 badly-shaken people made themselves known, including one deranged
 Ensign that entered the Bridge, sought out Captain Daren, and
 demanded a transfer.  When he was confronted, this Ensign ranted for
 a bit longer and then became catatonic...

 Once Xanadu had settled in, more traffic arrived from Reor'sa, in
 the form of a small but fast transport ship.  Though we didn't know
 it, this was Dr. Patricia Luisa Lopez aboard Arrow.  The ship
 transmitted this name and a valid Reorsan fleet identifier, and
 little else.  In particular, Arrow didn't respond to hails, nor to
 efforts to slow the ship down; she deftly avoided a tractor attempt
 from Coro.  She passed through the Second Chamber and into the
 Third, the portal at the zero-G hub opening at the packet's
 approach.  Unfortunately, Coro's Wraiths were unable to follow; the
 portal closed behind the new arrival.

 "Exchange" of the Week:
    Bad news: Kelaka uses Windows.  At least Savant is Plug and Play.
 <[CRS2_Ma`Aru]> Kel> ::turns to Tal:: Can we do a cold restart in
 the field?
 <[CRS2_Tal]> Kel> Knowing Mr. Dejat's penchant for the practical, -
 ::taps the CTRL-ALT-DEL keys and smiles as the system restarts::
 <[CRS2_Tal]> Kel> I would say so.
 <[CRS3_Savant]> Kel> ::Savant stuffed her own drivers into Kelaka as
 it restarted, pulling herself back onto Kelaka by her bootstraps::
 <[CRS2_Tal]> Kel> Memory overload purged.  System returning to
 optimal.
 <[CRS3_Savant]> Kel> ::Savant reappeared with a rather undramatic
 fizzle of light::
 <[RAGC_LoraKor]> Kel> ::hears a holographic buzz over his shoulder
 and smiles::  Welcome back, Commander.
