Voice: Wednesday Morning

We've found the missing hunters.

[Nem's voice sounds incredibly weary.]

I'm sure some of you wanted some resolution on that - mystery. They're deceased.

[There's a brief pause.]

I ask that you remain in the southern section of the city for the time being. There's no need to antagonize the Outer Authorities.

And me out of town on some damned-fool science expedition...

If I can swing a way to keep them cool, would the families be willing to hold off a few days for me to get back and do an autopsy?

It won't bring them back, but if it can help us understand...

Possibly. All I can promise is that I'll ask them, if you can come up with a way to keep the bodies preserved from both decay and scavengers.

[He pauses briefly.]

I know you're frequently busy, but if you could teach one or two of our own how to determine cause of death, I'd - appreciate it. Between the raids and the plague, we've lost our experts.

Solving the power drain on the ship is critical enough that I don't want to pull people off it unnecessarily, but rigging up refrigeration in a space on board it shouldn't take too much of their time.

I'll put out a call. And sure. You folks are less inclined to squeamishness than others I've met, so I can show them the ropes if you send them to me.

[Voice]

[outer_npcs]

We have little choice in the matter.

[What with all the crazy people wanting them dead.]

Thank you, Dr. McCoy.
