Captain's log - Stardate 2262.074
Tomorrow, we beam the other Horta aboard and return to Mother Horta. Scotty is delighted - Tallulah processed all of his ore, so not only is it purer and ready to use, it takes up a lot less room in storage. I was a little worried about how all those metals would affect the Horta's health, but Bones explained to me that metals are kind of like Horta candy. Nothing that gives them any nutrition, but they like the taste and, so long as they get enough real nutrition, it doesn't hurt them.
