The Memoirs of Lieutenant Colonel Carl T. LaFong
Preflight Conversations
Talk to SHOTGLASS
- Well, hiya, Maverick!
- Things are happening around here. We've been making a lot of jumps.
- A LOT of jumps. You don't have to be an active-duty pilot...
- ...to realize that something unusual is happening.
- Keep your ears open, and let me know what you hear, okay?
Talk to BOSSMAN
- Maverick Sit down, have a drink. I was just thinking about a story I'd heard---
- ---about the Gwenhyvar, an Exeter-class ship that disappeared a few years ago.
- Michael Casey
- You don't really believe that old fairy tale, do you?
- Kien Chen
- I don't think it's a fairy tale, Ice.
- Christopher Blair
- I've never heard this story, Bossman. What happened to the Gwenhyvar?
- Kien Chen
- Supposedly the Kilrathi captured it intact in dry dock, with all of its fighter complement and some of the crew....
- ...and they've used it to deceive and destroy other Confederation ships.
- No one who's encountered the Gwenhyvar has survived to tell the tale.
- Michael Casey
- I'll believe it when I see it.
Talk to ICEMAN
- Strange things going on.
- I was on the bridge a few hours ago.
- Tiger's Claw received a coded transmission...
- ...from High Command. The Colonel read it...
- ... and ordered non-essentials off the bridge.
- Since then, we've been jumping like crazy.
- Kien Chen
- We'll know what's happening soon enough, Iceman.
- Michael Casey
- True. Very true.
