Story
The Tamile are a race of sentient slug-people, only recently discovered by the galactic community. As a race, they are slowly pulling themselves out of their natural, primitive state into parity. Da Vinci considers himself to be at the forefront of that movement. He is currently serving aboard a small starship as Second Technical Officer, and hasn't been home to the forests in many months.
