Obviously you'll invite me along, about the manticores.
Attempt to avoid them, firstly. Stun it if needs be, kill it if stunning isn't enough. I'd be interested in observing them. Manticores exist where I am from, but if that young man's information is correct these ones are very different.
[ That question is tougher than responding with flippant confidence, and Xavier is forced to hesitate over it. Sip some distastefully lukewarm space coffee. He wants to be specific. It's hard to be specific. ]
I will know better when we get there. But intuition says that if its remains do not hold the key to the secrets of this ship, then it holds the tools to craft one. I'm prepared of course to be disappointed.

but one assumes that's against the rules.
Perhaps we ought to compare notes over galactic scotch rather than over these devices , sometime.
