Arrianna entered the Sickbay looking for the Doctor. Apparently she needed a physical, and a psychological evaluation.

The ship's chief MD had been busy taking a break from his implantation of the ship's crew and had been cleaning and feeding the animals they used in many medical practices. After cleaning his hands he walked over to the waiting room giving the best smile his species could do. " Ah Commander Arrianna Sssalannis an Vantar here for your appointment. if you follow me we'll get you ssseen to." he said profesional

"Doctor. I am pleased to see you." Arri mentioned. "How are you this fine day?"

" Doing rather well. Been keeping busssy." He replied as he lead to one of the bio beds and tapped the side. " Any medical incidentsss that weren't reported sssince your lassst checkup?" he inquired.

"Not really, Doctor. There's not much we can learn from this Void, Doctor. Other than what was on the probes we sent. We're just going to be recording data someone will find fascinating in a hundred years."

" Well let'sss get you ssseen to. Have you been given your sssubdermal tracker?" He said as he tapped the bio bed as an indicator for her to take a seat.

Arrianna spoke. "I am also here to see to that, Doctor. Understand I would most certainly want it removed when this assignment is completed." Arri mentioned calmly.

" Okay. Jussst ramin ssstill and I'll get it implanted. " The gorn said as he reached for the implantation gun. " Can you roll up your arm and we'll get it implanted. " He said calmly.

Arrianna done so. "Have you had any more vision's of your wife lately?"

The gorn simply nodded and held up three fingers. " Three timesss today. We've found nothing in medical ssscansss so we'll have to try sssomething more ancient to sssee if we can find answersss."

"While we have made great strives in the sciences, there are still things in this galaxy that elude us." Arri noted. "I will meet with you later, and perhaps we can get to the bottom of why your wife will not ascend. But for now, we must focus on my physical evaluation.

Arri spoke again. "I have been utilizing my physcal regiment recommended for functioning in what I consider, double gravity."

" Ssso I sssee." the gorn said as the first bits of data began to come in through the scanner. " Bone densssity is well within acceptable parametersss. Any complaintsss in that department?"

"If there are, you would know." Arri mentioned. "Care for body and mind is important to my kin. Doctor."

" Have to asssk. " the gorn replied as he watched the data. " Electrolyte levelsss looking good."

"I've been engaging in a medative trance to keep myself from looking outside when we enter the void." Arri noted.

" A wisse precaution. I'm terrified about what could happen." the gorn replied honestly.

Arri spoke. "My people's philosophy college researches our telepathy a great deal. Staring into complete darkness is dangerous, and I intend to relate that to the counselor. We believe that by doing it enough. The void enters us, and I do not want to take a piece of this place with me."

" Indeed." The gorn agreed as a bleep from the computer made him look over. " Okay. Everything looking good. I sssee no reassson not to confirm you fit for duty. "

"Thank you Doctor." Arrianna stepped off the Biobed.
