I expected to immediately be exposed to a lot of Matasians but in reality I was just in a receiving area with a few human guards. I told them that I was to work with Talach and they brought me to a door marked Lab #4 and led me inside. This is when I saw my first Matasian's. Talach was an older male probably about 55 if they age in the same manner as humans. The guard introduced me and I heard a machine begin making noise, translating it to Matasian. Talach looked at me I recognition and almost smiled, he glanced through a doorway but I didn't see any one there. Up close I could see the blood flowing through his veins and I didn't know whether I should be grossed out intrigued. I was a little of both. He waved his strongly boned hand toward the computer and began to speak.
"I am Talach and researcher of plants. I have heard that you a very organized and intelligent. I am trying to learn your language so I will try to talk to you in English when I can. Do you have any questions?" the computerized voice echoed to me.
