I appreciate your confidence, and no, I do not know who it is. But I am fairly certain the cultists are not to blame.

However, I believe we can take advantage of this event.

[irongaze]

[It's 30%-confidence and 70%-the accuser not having evidence.]

Oh? I'm listening.

[Valdis is well aware of your Vulcan ways, Eliyen]

I think that the cultist will be emboldened if they believe that the Chief of the KPD is being investigated. Boldness leads to mistakes, and we sorely need them to make some of those.

[She smiles. See! Vulcans don't smile!

No, for realskis, though, she's basically T'Lar.]

I like the way you think.

[redlightgreenlight]

I am glad we agree.

If you announced that you are taking these accusations seriously and have launched an investigation into the claims, in addition to asking me to step aside, temporarily of course,...we might be able to lure them into a false sense of security.

[irongaze]

If we can capture even one, we can question them as to the whereabouts of the others.

[redlightgreenlight]

Exactly.

[Your deviousness is appreciated.]

[irongaze]

[As is yours.]

I trust you have contingencies in place in case they decide you are weak and intend to attack you.

[redlightgreenlight]

I should hope they aren't that foolish or it would reflect poorly on my abilities as Chief.

[irongaze]

They're foolish enough to worship that abomination.

[redlightgreenlight]

True. I suppose I shall consider some contingency plans.
