					WORF 
			Few humans would. However, I do 
			apologize again for the 
			inconvenience. I did not intend 
			to cause so much damage.

					MARTOK 
			I am the one who did not parry the 
			blow in time. A simple and 
			foolish mistake -- one that I 
			would not have made two years ago.

					WORF 
			You have made great progress. 
			Your fighting skills will return 
			in time.

					MARTOK
			Yes...

	Martok looks down at his shoulder, still bothered by the 
	mistake he made. Worf decides to change the subject.

					WORF 
			Can you discuss your mission?

					MARTOK 
			Three days ago, the battle cruiser 
			B'Moth began a patrol near the 
			Cardassian border. They have not 
			been heard from since and have 
			been reported as missing.

					WORF 
			It is possible she was destroyed 
			by the Dominion. The Jem'Hadar 
			attacked a Federation starship 
			near the border less than a week 
			ago.

					MARTOK 
			That is our assumption as well, 
			but we must be certain. So I am 
			being given command of a Bird of 
			Prey -- the Rotarran -- to conduct 
			a search for the B'Moth. 
				(beat) 
			This will be the first time I have 
			led troops in the field since 
			my... confinement by the 
			Dominion.
