Well, it feels like I've been sick for a month straight. I know it hasn't
really been that bad, but that's why I'm late with this actions. I'd meant to
set up cooperation with the Ka'Shari this year, but it looks like that didn't
pan out. Anyway, it's a bit late to rewrite the action, so feel free to adjust
it to reflect lack of Ka'Shari involvement.
Anyway, sorry this is so late.
