The image from the planet would resolve as an office area, empty at first.  Eventually, a bearded male Vulcan would sit in front of the video pick up.  His eyes were sunken and bleary-looking, and his normally slightly greenish pallor was pale and wan.  His voice was deep, but halting.  "In the event that this is not some sort of hallucination or mental illusion, I shall respond to your hail."<br/><br/>He paused, and he caught his breath, steadying.  "I am Sonvek of Vulcan.  I am the sole survivor..."  He suddenly began to twitch one eye, and shake slightly.  "...to the best of my knowledge.  The other members of the expedition have..." The twitching became more severe and he seemed to be having trouble focusing on the video pick up now.  "...been taken...  I require assistance..."  His hands went to his head, as if he had a severe headache, and he exhaled forcefully.  He seemed to quote something.  "'Cast out fear. There is no room for anything else until you cast out fear.'"<br/>
