T'Ree regarded Tienn Iteela with a simple look. "Is all well?"
"My accommodations are satisfactory, thank you." Tienn responded evenly, without smiling.
T'Ree arched an eyebrow, clearly in a questioning mood. "Indeed?" she inquired. "Are you prepared for your first session?"
"I am." Tienn responded. "I read the literature you supplied me with and while much of it is fascinating, I do need to read it more in depth, which.. I can do later."
"I understand." T'Ree answered with a gentle smile. "This way." as she turned before she led the shorter woman who followed in silence to their destination which turned out to be T'Ree's study where she spent most of her waking hours while doing her research.
Tienn regarded the room, it was decently well lit and somewhat cool, there were four sets of bookshelves that were about seven foot or so in height along the walls with books organized by various subjects, one of the sizable tomes caught Tienn's eye, it was titled 'When the Prophets Cried.'
"I didn't expect to see a copy of the sacred texts here.."
"I make it a policy to help my clients be at ease, you may borrow it should you desire it." T'Ree responded. "As I said earlier, my home is your home for the duration of your stay."
"You are too kind." Tienn responded as she stopped next to the two mats. T'Ree knelt down and gently produced a few items, one of which was a meditation lamp. Tienn knelt before the other woman as T'Ree finished her preparations. "Lets begin."
With that the taller woman gently touched her right hand to Tienn's face, one finger under her ear, one under her temple, the middle finger went under her eye and one next to her nose. "My mind... to your mind... my thoughts.... to your.. thoughts... we are merging... we are one."
Stars wheeled overhead as the two women ended up inside a thoughtscape created by the two of them. "Interesting place this.." as Tienn looked out over the landscape. It was dark as the sky was festooned with stars and four large moons overhead, all of which shone brightly as they reflected the light from the host star down onto the ground before both women.
"I didn't come here, you brought me here." T'Ree responded. "Still... Its not a bad enviroment." as she paused. "Shall we go?"
"Yes.. Lets... Clearly that is our destination." as the two women set off for the massive building in the distance. It looked like an inverted dish with four arms reaching up for the heavens. "I have never seen a building like that before... is it of Cardassian design?"
"Nope... Its one of my own design. Inside... is my entire life... All my memories." Tienn smiled as she regarded the small two man utility vehicle that seemed to appear from nowhere. It had four wheels and what looked like an old style rapid slug-thrower in the back. Tienn climbed into the drivers seat to come face to face with an old style driving system.
Tienn nodded as she finished climbing in. "Its been awhile since I've driven anything... but I'm sure I can figure this out." before she turned the key that was in the ignition. "See... climb in.."
T'Ree climbed into the passenger side in silence as Tienn stamped her foot down on the gas and the two were off.
About an hour or so later as the two reckoned the passage of time, they reached the entrance which was a small and rather plain looking double door which opened at the approach of the vehicle that Tienn was driving.
Tienn stopped her ride befre she climbed out, T'Ree followed in silence. "Where are we?"
"This is the garage.... I know this place... My sisters and I created a ground Starbase design but we never got the chance to share it with anyone."
"Mmm... Maybe you should.." T'Ree smiled. "If we get the chance to I mean... This is an impressive facility."
Tienn nodded. "Thank you." she turned. "This way.." as she led the taller Vulcan towards the central computer core which both of them knew was where her memories were located.
The door opened at both woman's approch, and the room looked like it had been destroyed. "Alright Lets out this room back the way it should" T'Ree responded.
"Yes.." and with that Tienn went to work.
