Ben's there after breakfast, loading up a vehicle with equipment. If they decide to go out to further sites they may have to use the teleporter, but they'll sort that out as it comes.

[Narvin saunters up in his oldest set of Gallifreyan civilian clothes, a tunic and trousers in a drab russet. He wears a work belt with assorted pouches filled with tools and he thinks he looks like a Low Town handyman except for the staser pistol holstered at his hip.

He can't decide whether he resents not having the mantle of authority he had as Coordinator and then Chancellor or whether it's refreshingly relaxing to let other people be responsible for making decisions and him just carrying them out.]

All right, let's get this over with.

[usfuzzies]

Agreed. [Ben's in a bush jacket and sensible hat; he has a hard-copy waterproofed topographical map of the surrounding wilderness, marked in several places with adhesive dots.]

I'm thinking here, here, and here-- we'll need to come back and take the 'porter out to this one, but you'd expect to find a lot of game around this water source to draw hunters-- and water sources are also prime sources for terrorists.

[timesbureaucrat]

[That gives Narvin pause.]

Do you know what the water source is for the resort? Groundwater wells? Aquaduct? Synthesized?

[It wasn't something he'd thought about before until the possibility of terrorists poisoning the water was dropped in his head.]

[usfuzzies]

Groundwells or aquifer. There's no need for a synthesizing plant on a planet like this.

You're used to more developed planets, aren't you

[timesbureaucrat]

Indeed. I prefer it that way. Nature is unpleasantly unpredictable.

[usfuzzies]

Why take this assignment, then?

[timesbureaucrat]

I enjoy studying alien technology.
