"You should not allow such prejudice to cloak your judgement Calum. What we do now strengthens the alliance between all of us. The Tok'ra, the Tau'ri and the Jaffa." The young man speaking to Calum as they walked through the temple grounds was carrying a small data pad as he spoke. He was one of the many scientists in the city, working on ways to expand the energy network and not strain their resources too greatly.
"Do not fear Homet. I am not so foolish as to betray my emotions to grunts." Ahmos was the one speaking now, Calum had obviously grown tired of the debate over why they would need Jaffa at all aboard a Tau'ri vessel. Tok'ra and Tau'ri had worked well enough together without their assistance. In his experience their beliefs and superstitious ways left them easily manipulated.
Homet stopped his friend with a friendly gesture of his hand over Calum's shoulder. "And that is precisely what I mean. Jaffa are a proud people. Speaking to them as if they are lower then you will only give them cause to resent you."
Ahmos sighed and turned away to look into the distance before bringing his gaze back to his friend. "You are right as always my friend. Be safe while I am gone, and look after my plants..." Ahmos gave a smile and bowed his head, Calum being permitted to return and give Homet an endearing hug before taking what he chose as necessity items and began walking to the gate.

Necessity to Calum and Ahmos meant the zat by their side, a fresh set of clothes, a communications device and a datapad to work with. They had seen Tau'ri computers only once before, and so preferred their own technology over such devices. Still, that would not stop him from working with such machines. The two were anything if not resourceful. The sand had krept into the temple entrance again. This was one of the minor problems with living on a desert world, the sand got everywhere. He could see the gate had already activated from a distance and fixed his clothing to look presentable before marching over to Ariadne who was already at the DHD looking entirely uncomfortable. "I see our guests have arrived..." Calum said, one hand behind his back with the other around his small bag of belongings. He looked over the Jaffa, their ornate armour that iconic silver and gold. The symbol of their leaders head was of the Serpent god, False God, Apophis. He had fought them many times in the past. It would certainly be intriguing to see how the faired under his instructions. That is, of course, under the belief the Jaffa would not be given command over his actions. Such a thought was impossible to accept.

Calum just gazed at them, cold emotionless eyes only flickering when the occasional breeze kicked up dust and made him blink. For now he would simply be silent and follow Ariadne's lead. He had come to trust her judgement of late, even if he had never spoken with her before.
