thlngan Hol yllos
(Klingon Battlecruiser Bloodrain)

Exiting the turbo lift, Sub-commander Mirath of the House of Vernn wasted no time crossing the bridge and approached the center dias where Captain Mor’Tah of the House of Vagh brooded impatiently, his dark eyes forever locked on the tactical display where the two tera’ngan vessels aligned with a coalition of worlds calling themselves The Federation cruised in slow formation together. The Federation ships had held station now for nearly 78 hours, sensors indicating that the terrans were working to repair the enemy ship which had led the Bloodrain and its crew to this strange dimension. Disgusting to think that the thlngan’s of this dimension were so weak and honorless to have aligned with this Federation.

Had they reached the Terran ship which had led them here sooner, Captain Mor’tah would have already claimed his prize and they would be awaiting the next cycle of the wormhole allowing them to return to their own dimension with the vessel and it’s computers to be stripped of all information about this Federation. Valuable information which would allow the House of Vagh to return here with a full force of ships and strike these weak, spineless worlds. This dimension would be theirs for the taking and rather than a ranked thlngan House, the House of Vagh would dominate this galaxy!

Mirath stood stiffly at attention awaiting his Captain’s permission to speak, eager to share the news he had. Finally, Mor’Tah grunted. “DaneHbogh ylta’”
(What do you want)

“Captain. Sensors have detected the first gravimetric changes indicating that the wormhole will reopen in approximately 15 minutes time. Based on the level of neutrinos we are detecting, the Passage will remain open long enough for 4 vessels to safely cross before the Passage collapses once again. The Federation ships will detect the Passage opening, but should remain unaware of the arrival of Hatlh, majQo’vaq, Jabwl’, and TughQlb.”

“Excellent. Monitor the Passage. As soon as it begins to open, send orders on a repeating cycle for them to take position and signal us when ready. We will take two prizes this day!”
