In reply to: Lewa, followed by Tahu 's message, "He skidded to a halt, just short of a transport sailing past...." on 21:44:16 04/06/02 Sat

"We stood unbothered while others reacted in terror to a disaster which was nothing more than a clever play of light and sound. Enlightenment from our own transcendence allows us to understand the nature of matter and energy, and to tell when reality has substance and density.

We've spent enough time on this primitive starbase. There are beings with potential aboard; that much I can feel. But it will take time, perhaps centuries, for them to evolve. For now, our path is clear Tahu. These primitives cannot help us reach Gali, wherever she and the others may be. But this COM...I've a good feeling about the knowledge we might find there.

It is time we Toa moved on."

Lewa grunted in agreement, taking Tahu's now outstretched hands. Others in the Docking Bay, still shaken from the recent "test", or distracted by a nearby commotion, didn't pay much attention as the two higher plastorganics glowed, coalescing into a single ball of red and green intermingled energies, and departed Starbase Rugby forever....
