The noises come closer; eventually, there's a brief exchange between the man Troi was talking to and another voice.
"Hey," says the first voice.
"Hoi," returns the other. Then, more conversationally: "Did you miss us?"
"Why would I miss your ugly mug, Duncan?" Shifting of feet.
"Has he stirred?" A quiet, toneless female voice.
"No, not a peep," returned the other voice casually. "You find the goods?"
"There were no troubles," the female voice replies, still in the same emotionless voice. "We need only to recover the last cache."
"Right, then we get out of here, eh?" says the man Troi was speaking to, in a tone of somewhat forced joviality. There is no response, and the camp lapses into silence, with only shifting feet breaking the quiet.
