<p class="MsoNormal">Ssvresh listened to the transporter's signature whine without opening his eyes to watch those returning from the mission to the planet. The notion of bringing both away missions into isolation together confused him, but he was not a medical
officer and bowed to their better judgement.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The transition to isolation protocols had been a simple one for him. Selay biology emphasised economy of movement, requiring extended periods of digestion and conservation of energy. Upon materialisation in the holodeck, Ssvresh had taken
to his assigned bunk and entered a resting, meditative state. He listened as other crew made their own adjustments to their current confined status - some with much less ease – and barely noticed the continuing cold sensation in his hands and feet.</p>
