Captain Suren'kum temporarily deactivated his throat mic. Speaking in side conversations to his other soldiers.

[i]"A monarchy? Definitely not a member of the Terrans' own federation."[/i] Higher Kordal Yurin'tum murmured.

[i]"But they speak of gods. Perhaps they have understandi-"[/i] another soldier began to say before being cut off by Ranan.

[i]"Don't be stupid!"[/i] he hissed, [i]"If these primitive creatures knew anything about the Supreme Being we would know of their existence. Given Sazkar Major's proximity from here they are no doubt a planetbound species; ones to even regard the fierce warriors of the Peoples' Military as 'angels' and disciples of gods! Pah! Clearly they have no notion of space travel as they regarded a heavily-armed warship as an 'angel' itself."[/i] He paused for a minute, wondering. [i]"Regardless; it will be sometime before a warfleet comes here, so I suppose some time of leave is in order while our ships arrive. No doubt something to take to the Marshal, though."[/i]

Captain Suren'kum reactivated the throat mic and began speaking to the Captain of the militia.

"Captain Reynald, we a truly flattered. Your respect for us and your reverence is appreciated." he started, he turned up from the man and looked towards the rest of the crowd. "I am absolutely certain that many of you are frightened. It seems that you of Nouvelle are a planetbound one--whether that may or may not be certain--and have physiology radically different from your own. We've often been attributed the derogatory term 'Lizard' for this reason. We can assure you that we do not mean any sort of harm." he turned back to Reynald. "Captain, I'm certain you would like to speak with my superior. She is the captain of [i]Might of a Thousand Suns[/i] and things will be clarified there. We can provide airlift if you do not have your own transportation."
