Having left Sheppard to deal with the fallout of their impromptu election, Eventus had been on track to fulfill his fervent desire of passing out for at least eight hours of uninterrupted rest.

Weir, Caldwell, and Everett wanting to discuss things without him around was moderately understandable from a security perspective.

“That's certainly a ship.” Eventus muttered in bemusement as he studied the mishmash of energy signatures the Daedalus was radiating.
There was the expected Ancient and Asgard of course, a number of things that he suspected were Goa’uld in origin, and a smattering of things that just came up as unknown. Which made him wonder ...
