[QUOTE="Tun Kai Poh, post: 8537251, member: 6761960"] [B][SIZE=5]Drifting, Part 4[/SIZE][/B] [SIZE=4]Tabitha sighs, "Very well then. Arrange for a full investigation and report. Then prepare an appropriate burial service for them as appropriate for their origins. Full honors and record the ceremony to be distributed to kin and colleagues as per their last wishes. I have three more letters to write." She turns and walks heavily out of the hangar. It is only a few days later that Vera finds her alone looking morosely out the observation gallery.
