From his position in the second row of the crowd of Minions, Doctor Greymyst listens intently to General Steele, his ears twitching slightly as the purpose of the gathering is announced. While he is not surprised that there is another group of humans on the island, he is slightly wary due to the events of the proceeding months. As one of the senior doctors who staffed the Liar's medical wing, he had seen first hand the abstract cruelty that the Titan had wrought, starting with the illness of the man who was now addressing them.
Of course, that illness had not been natural, and it had taken all the expertise of many doctors, himself included, and Doctor Silver to keep the now General alive. It had, of course, led to some interesting reasearch and insights into the ppneumonic plague.
The next thing General Steele says puts Sylvian's fears somewhat to rest, though not completely. History teaches that anytime a new population comes into the circulation of a closed environment, such as the Calendar Islands are, problems inevitably arise for both groups as unknown diseases and bacteria are introduced both ways. So, even before General Steele starts on handing out orders, Sylvian has already reached into a pocket and pulled his tablet out, quickly flicking through the database of vaccines currently stored in the Liar's labs.
Of course, this begs the obvious question; which should they start on first? Of course, this is a question for Madam Bane and Doctor Silver, one that would be better suited to back in Medical, when he is able to perhaps pull aside Doctor Silver and have a conversation about it...
But then, they're all here, so perhaps it would be best to ask now, so the rest of R&D knows as well?
Shaking his head he sighs and goes back to going through the database, selecting and dragging different vaccines currently stockpiled and compiling a list of the more common diseases present in the atoll that the new population might fall victim to. The last small part is simply a reminder to ask Silver what possible diseases General Tungsten's people might be bringing with them.
