[color=cyan]<Huginn: This ability defies logic.> 
<We are not meant to be heard, and the natives possess no other signs of such technological prowess.>[/color]

[color=orange]<Muninn: The only thing that would be more irrational would be to deny what is right in front of us.>
<We can look for a rational explanation later.>
<Everything we can see right now points to the fact that this reptilian can communicate into our mind directly.>
<This could be dangerous.>
<It could also be useful.>[/color]

[color=cyan]<H:We must look to explain this in time, but I can find no fault to your argument.>
<The ability to have direct communication would be of drastic help to our translation efforts.>
<However, we do not know enough about the process to know if he would be able to access sensitive information.>[/color]

[color=orange]<M:Then we copy our personality into an isolated partition with the translation algorithms and no other sensitive data.>
<If anything would allow us to proceed safely, that would be it.>[/color]

As requested, Wodan had stopped saving the recordings from the bridge momentarily. Though, he continued to maintain his presence in order to continue carrying out his own duties. Ideally, Wodan would have allowed the Captain the time needed to recover completely, but the situation in general demanded more immediate decision making.

Once Dr. Feng was finished for the moment and the Captain was alert once more, Wodan took the chance to address her. “Captain, I believe we would be able to learn more by having experts question the natives, rather than civilians. It may be possible to do so safely. This reptilian native, by some means, can convey his thoughts even to my mind. With such direct communication, I could complete a translation program in days, rather than months. We would no longer require his presence in order to communicate.”
