You enter the Fertility Control Center- and Maktana's laboratory.
<span class="mu-g">”Hello, Sir! I'm sorry I'm late, but I'm ready and willing to work.”</span>
<span class="mu-b">”Well, if you're gonna be late, you better not came empty handed...”</span>
<span class="mu-g">”No Sir! I brought saliva from the back of the throat of the breathless- err- <span class="mu-i">asthmatic</span> boy. I also got a urine sample from the die-a-beet-is man, and some... ummm.... discharge. From a girl.”</span>
<span class="mu-b">”Oh? Of the young lady in the village?”</span>
<span class="mu-g">”Yes sir, though her dad nearly stomped me to death when I asked.”</span>
<span class="mu-b">”Haha! The sacrifices we make for science- I know Ton, you always work hard. All is forgiven. Put it in the sample machine, I'm a bit busy.”</span>
<span class="mu-g">”What are you working on today, Star-Overseer Maktana Sir?”</span>
<span class="mu-b">”You can just call me Sir, or Maktana, if you really want. We don't really do the “star” thing.”</span>
<span class="mu-g">”Yes sir!”</span>
<span class="mu-b">”Well, if you're <span class="mu-i">curious</span>, I'm trying to isolate Baalathi DNA, especially in regards to their magnetic biology.”</span>
<span class="mu-g">”The Baalathi? I thought they were like... weird gas things.”</span>
<span class="mu-b">”They are. And their DNA is basically totally foreign, even with convergent evolution principles applied to all land dwelling creatures based on carbon... But Hazaar DNA is like clay, it can bind up almost anything, if I can just get it to catch on a Blue-Hazaar's structure, we might be able to carry that on over to the Jaxtian genome...”</span>
You don't really understand what Maktana is talking about now. You sometimes think he just hired you to be his student and assistant so he someone to spout off about stuff with- someone to listen. Not that you mind. There are very few Star-People on Vetuck, he probably doesn't have anyone to talk to on “his level”, and while you aren't on his level, you can at least listen to him.
