“Our recommendation is to evacuate. Decisions regarding your people are certainly yours; we can only give our suggestions. Just know that, should you decide to evacuate, you will have our full support and assistance in that task.” Roth’Orsa commented before, as requested, moving on to her next point without delay. “The Rahn’Saki have only one other point to address. The terms of our deal stipulate that we do not demand your secrets regarding the Cradle. We do honor our agreement, but we do still [i]ask[/i] for any data you might share. Any information you are willing to give may improve our response, and may save Human lives. We recommend that you take the time to discuss among yourselves what you are willing to share before the device arrives at Outremer.”

With just a thought, Roth’Orsa pushed holographic copies of a surprisingly detailed estimated timeline of the excavation ahead of them to everyone in attendance. “You should expect our gateway to arrive at Outremer in just over a week. By the time our gateway reaches you, the gateway around the device should be assembled and ready. We will be able to transport the device as soon as you are ready, at that point.”
