[Deep breaths. This is fine. This is all going to be fine. They can do this.]

[But if he broadens the search pool, the better the chances of this working out. As much as he hates to think about what he'd learned, as much as he wants to pretend it's all okay...]

[His voice is steady as ever, over the TAB. Despite the late hour.]

I'm looking for someone good with data extraction and compilation. Especially someone who can do that for alien or unfamiliar tech.

Maybe even translating unknown languages. I can't say for sure.

I'll take any help you can offer.

They're called Galra.

And I don't know.

[ryuuzaki]

Without any knowledge of the culture, it's unlikely that I could translate it, even if I can extract the data. However, someone else might be able to.

[He hasn't forgotten Ronan's weird translation device.]

It seems implicit that the Galra aren't accessible via the Ingress. Still... you don't know how the device came into your hands?

[shiro2hero]

I don't... I don't know anything about their culture.

[He knows their military. Their war machines. Culture... that's different. Something else entirely.]

No. There's no memory of ... any of it.

[ryuuzaki]

I understand.

[Well, enough to move on: Shiro doesn't remember.]

How are you sure that it's related to them?

[He's assuming it's something like how any number of people from his own world could identify something as "Ancient Egyptian" even if they didn't know how to read hieroglyphs and didn't know much about the culture aside from sand, Sphinx, pyramids.]

[shiro2hero]

Because I didn't have it before I ran into them.

[And a whole lot of other reasons, like:] And people familiar with this technology identified it, afterward.

[ryuuzaki]

Do those people know anything about the Galra? Has anything they've told you implied that the Galra could be a danger to us here?

[shiro2hero]

Yes, they do. They know them... better than anyone else would.

But no. Far as any of us know, the Galra aren't here.
