1 nq220100_msg0001 1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Colony Tau doesn't have
any off-seers, does it?
2 nq220100_msg0002 L 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 No. We return our dead to the earth.
3 nq220100_msg0003 5 0x8148 0x4081 0x430 126 Weird thing to do. I never heard
of anyone doing that.
4 nq220100_msg0004 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 Who grows up in the forest, goes back
to the forest. And until that time comes,
a peaceful resting place awaits you.
5 nq220100_msg0005 4 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 I'm from Agnus and even I've never heard
of this custom. I suppose it's deeply rooted
in Colony Tau's culture.
6 nq220100_msg0006 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 It is. Which is why the concept of
"sending off" isn't something we've
ever had to consider.
7 nq220100_msg0007 2 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 But...you did have an off-seer in the past,
from what I've heard?
8 nq220100_msg0008 L 0x8118 0x4081 0x430 126 In the past, yes. But he was
killed in combat with Keves.
9 nq220100_msg0009 3 0x8100 0x3004081 0x430 126 Were you there, Juniper?
10 nq220100_msg0010 L 0x8128 0xC04081 0x430 126 I was. He drew enemy fire with the
rear guard. I would not have escaped,
were it not for his sacrifice.
11 nq220100_msg0011 3 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 Well that's depressing.
12 nq220100_msg0012 5 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 But what did your off-seer usually do,
given that he wouldn't be off-seeing?
13 nq220100_msg0013 L 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Tilled the fields, mostly. As I said,
we didn't really need off-seers.
14 nq220100_msg0014 3 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 Still depressing.
15 nq220100_msg0015 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 ...Actually, could I ask you
to send off our off-seer?
16 nq220100_msg0016 1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Of course, if that's what you want.
17 nq220100_msg0017 L 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 If there is a place we return to,
then surely there are avenues
other than the earth to reach it.
18 nq220100_msg0018 L 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 That's what I've come to believe, anyway.
You know, if there really is some peaceful
place waiting somewhere...
19 nq220100_msg0019 2 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 That's a lovely thought.
20 nq220100_msg0020 1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Do you know where the off-seer is?
We'll get there straight away.
21 nq220100_msg0021 L 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Thanks. I'll take you.
