Mikal

Mikal then said his good by's and went to the left, when the door opened up Talin then said; " i hope you can handle the job Mikal its not going to be easy! "

  he turned around and looked at him then asked; " what gives you the idea that i can't?"

  nothing its just when i reviewed your record i got the opinion that when you make up your mind you close it to other possibilities that's all!"

  i never close the door to anything, Admiral Talin, to this day i am still looking for evidence to support some theories that Professor Darik of the Trojans are looking for when he first got into Archaeology!"

  "yes, that is what he said, why are you doing that anyway?"

  " every possibility must be ruled out before it can be ruled out as a possibility! there can be no closed doors anywhere anytime! what in my record told you that i closed doors?"

 "there are a couple of little things - nothing major though!"
  i would very much like for those little thing to be told to me so i can clear up any confusion! Admiral!"

Mikla walked back over to the chair and sat down, "now tell me some of them please?"

"Okay for starting off with there is the little matter of the Trojan Desert ' the lifeless lands " why are you so bent out of shape telling people that at one time there was in fact life there?"

 "at one time there was, the genetic make up of that desert clearly shows that - i don't know what changed the genetic make up of the region but the salt mountains aren't a natural development for the area, the salt you find in the sea and the salt you find in those mountains have nothing encomium! right down to the genetic make up the cells are different where the salt in the sea can be ate the salt in the desert will kill you if you ate it!  there just nothing that can tie them together!"

  well on that one you were right, Ridium told us that the Lifeless lands were made by him to bring forth a mineral we now know as Trysillucant, to him its call silicon and it wasn't natural on Phobia, the point though is you closed that door before the proof was found!'

  "Ridium?  who is that?"

  "Ridium is a true Arkondian, he was born in the Altiearian time here on Phobia!"

  "Altiearian time, the Altiearians are a race of people that Vytra Korvan found or wait Vytar named them, Professor Dathan Lindaran found them right?"

 " right!"

 "so how could he have been born in the Alterian time?  they lived over twenty three million generations ago?"

"not quite, the Altiearieans are in fact three hundred generation old, that is three hundred generation ago they came to Phobius then the name of the planet was changed to Phobia but that's about what happened according to Ridium!"

"still how could he be from the Altiearians!"

"you aren't into astrology are you?"

"no - why?"

"if you were you would have known, were do you think we got the Radiant Spirit space station at?"

 "i thought we built it!"

"no, Ridium is the computer that is on that station, that station is in fact a star ship built by the Altiearieans, we inherited it!  and you were going to take on a job with little to no knowledge of the true situation!"

 "we inherited it?"

Talin laughed then added, the first thing you need to do is go to Radiant Spirit Station and learn your history!"

"i"ll do that now then!"

"your free to go then!"
