Mission: Welcome Home Stanger
Location: Starbase 135

The Trill freighter 'Bojeae' had been docked at Starbase 135 for several hours before Rella disembarked. Knowing that the freighter was not leaving for the Trill homeworld for twenty four hours she had taken the time to sleep. It had been a difficult journey and Rella had made up her mind she would not make a journey this way again. the crew had made much of the fact that they had a Joined Trill on board and also a doctor and she found most of her time had been given treating various ailments, overseeing a birth and sorting out their very limited medical facilities.

Feeling refreshed she shouldered the rest of her now depleted medical supplies, some clothes, her orders and her personal PADD and departed the Bojeae without a backward look. It felt good to be walking around again and her cramped muscles began to relax. The promenade of the station seemed incredibly busy after the relative quiet of the Bojeae and she recognised many species and some that she did not recognise. she realised she was incredibly hungry for some free not replicated food and, spotting what looked like a small cafe wandered in dropping her pack by a small table by the exit. A Bolian server approached her.

"I would like some veralian stew with a side of beran bread, not replicated?" She asked.

"Our stew is always made freshly" the Bolian server bristled and moved away before Rella could apologise. Whilst she waited she watched the passing foot traffic, Rellas's eyelids began to droop as her server reappeared with a steaming bowl of appetising stew.

"The Beran bread is also fresh" the server said as the thick green bread slowly broke apart.

"Yashalen apa Verali nushaa rad!" Rella said as the Bolian's face broke into a smile.

Bella finished her stew and bread and feeling satiated she began to look for the Senior Officer to report in to before she found her quarters and looked for sick bay.
