11:31 am	Naara, Still no trace of our ship in the expanse. Dissent within the council is worsening. We fight every day. The Reptilians are dangerous, I cannot trust them. I fear this mission will be at once my biggest success and my greatest regret. Degra (Comment on this)

10:25 pm	My wife and love, There has been no word from the ship we lost in the Expanse. No trace of it. I am worried beyond belief. It's just one more sign, one more piece of evidence, one more indication of how dangerous these people are. If we are to act, our time is now. I long to see you again. To run my fingers through your hair and hold you close to me. How was Piral's science fair? And Jaina's dance performance? I do miss our children. I fear I will come home an old man with no place in their lives. Do they even remember the sound of my voice? Do you tell them stories of me, of why I had to go away? I hope they still hold me dear in their hearts, and don't hate me for what I'm doing. Things are moving quickly here. I hope and pray with every fibre of my being that this will end soon, and I will be with my three beautiful girls again. I love you, Naara. I miss you terribly. Degra (Comment on this)

3:34 pm	My Beautiful Naara, How I miss you. The children must have grown so much by now. Do they even remember me? How I wish I was there to hold you all. Apart from losing a ship in the expanse, everything here is going according to plan. As much as I hate my work, and the fact that it takes me far away from you and our children, I am determined to save our people, and the frail unity of the council. Don't think me a monster, my love... I am doing this for you, for Piral and Jaina and for their children and their children's children. For our future. With all my love, Degra Current Mood: sad (Comment on this)

12:37 pm	Dear Diary We still haven't heard from the research vessel that was sent back to Inova for Phase Two tests. I'm worried. The council wants to give them another week, but I have a feeling we're already too late. Got a letter from Naara. How I miss her. I feel as though my children are growing up without me. I wish I could get home, if even for a day, just to hold them all again. But I have a mission. The future of not only my family, but my entire species, rests on it. I can't turn my back. Not now. There's nothing I can do but wait for word on the research ship. Current Mood: worried (Comment on this)
