Let me start by asking the Major, how are the Colonists? What conditions are they currently "living" in the cargo hold? If you know, how are they emotionally holding up?
And Mayor, what are your thoughts on the future for the colonists?

"Under the circumstances while conditions are not ideal they are being taken care of physically. We have shower and laundry systems set up along with food preparation and we are doing our best to set up families in empty quarters as well as setting up walls to allow more privacy."...*looks to Sharrel and gives her a nod..."The Medical staff is also doing what they can and doing that well....I am concerned about how they are holding up mentally....they've been through quite an ordeal. Fortunately Sarina is now on the scene and is able to start taking care of that but she is only one person and the colonists are many so it's going to take some time."

Pouring coffee for herself. Thank you that is very good to hear. It helps to ease my concern for them.
I had hoped, that we could re-build the colony, but this lady, ((pointing to Sharrel)), has very practically pointed out the mountainous issues with that. ((To Sharrel)) You made some suggestions but I am vague on recalling them.

*grabs a sandwich, a small plate of fruit and takes a look at the whiskey and decides on some hot tea instead.
"Think nothing of it...we're here to help anyway we can."

Mayor, would you like glass of wine? or a nip of whiskey maybe? You've been under a great deal of strain lately, we'll join in you a drink, what is your preference?

Looking at the whiskey. I'll take the wine. Looking between the three. Are you sure everything is alright with the population?

Pours herself some whiskey.
Sharrel? Major? Some whiskey or wine?
Offering to pour a glass of either, to both.
There is a problem with re-setting, rebuilding with your previous location.

There are always problems, and we are hear to discuss them, and its polite to join someone in a drink, and although I don't thinking drinking is a solution to anything, taking in moderation, it can be a mild tonic it can certainly help to buffer any issues we need to talk about.
Mayor, before we start talking about the really serious issues, can you please tell me where you are mentally? Are you ready to do the duty of your office? Do you feel you need support to do this duty? Would you like some help in your position from the population? I'm interested to know if you can make some serious decisions, without letting yourself collapse under the weight of things. And you most certainly can get help from others in the population if you feel you need to, or if you want to.

Takes a deep drink.I think there might be two others who could help me with it. One would be my assistance, and another would be his co-worker.
I think I can handle it, I am a bit emotional weak.

Takes a sip of her own drink.
Mayor, there is no easy way to say this, so I am going to come right out with it.
You can not go back to Talusia, there is no Talusia to go back to, the drej came back after you left and blew up the planet and its moon, its as if it never existed.

WHAT!
No, no that can't be!
You can't blow up a whole planet!
You must be mistaken!
Tears freely running down her face.
Drinking the last of her glass.
That was our home!

*Changes her mind and pours herself a double shot of the Whisky*
They have done it before but I never thought they would do it again. I was worried about repeat attacks but not this.
I am so sorry for the loss of your home. I had thought you would at least be able to return long enough to collect belongings. We need to speak with Sarina before we tell the rest of the colonists.
Captain this is a serious escalation in aggression. The Drej have all but declared war on humanity again.

Yes they have.
On the bright side, previously when Oliver and Reny set up the containment field in the caverns, they somehow messed up and created a drej weapon, and the drej they captured, they destroyed them.
I asked them to do the same again, but on a larger scale, and they were able to replicate the process, and in doing so, we were able to destroy the drej ship that destroyed the planet.
Drinking her whiskey down and pouring another.

“Captain, in light of this information, I recommend we return home where there are more resources and we are more adequately equipped to aid the population as well as replicating this weapon. If the Drej have indeed stepped up the war on humanity we are more and more vulnerable the longer we are out here.”

We would be taking 25,000 people back to the station. Any one of which might pose a security risk.
They were all held in the caverns by the Drej for some time.
If the location of the station is compromised it will almost certainly be attacked putting both our people and the colonists at risk. The destruction of the planet might have been designed to force our hand. Or it may just be that the Drej are evil, but I have learned to expect the worst.

OCC Sorry, I had thought I would get on yesterday, it was Thanksgiving, but didn't have a chance.
For now, lets get the Mayor settled, with her people so she can organize something, or start to organize something to set and speak to her people and while she is doing that, we can speak more about what we should do.
But I will say this, I have been visited by an Ancient twice since this has happened, and although the encounters have been extremely brief there is a place for the Colonists, and Mayor you need to know that.
I think for now, Mayor you need to beam back to your people, speak your aid, and his aid, set up some organization.

Your issues sound extreme. I am needing to concentrate on my people. Getting back to them seems like the right thing to do now. I trust that you are going to help us find a home. If you were not interested you would not have saved us.

Sarrin please transport the Mayor back to The Titan, just outside of the cargo bay.
Mayor, this way you can go back to your quarters to gather yourself, or go directly to your people.
