Thanks for the comments guys, it's greatly appreciated as always. I may start posting at less regular intervals as this story will now have to share time with my other project. But not to worry, it's still very much alive and kicking with much more to come.
And
Badger, Terrence Glover is a character from
DarKush's Dark Territory series and he has appeared in a number of other United Trek works. I'm glad I've managed to introduce him in a manner that made sense to you. Please check out
DarKush's excellent stories right here on the TrekBBS if you want to learn more about the guy. He's one of the more ... complicated, maybe even controversial characters in United Trek.
