You above all people should know that Vulcans do not walk away from a debate, until we feel as though we have come to a reasonable and logical conclusion to the end of the discussion.
I will hearby inform you that my mother died suddenly. This coincided with the dream I had of Vulcan being swallowed by a singularity at the core of the planet and losing her while being beamed up to the Enterprise. So it was as though I lost her twice over, as well as almost all of my race. I awoke to the phone call from my father, informing me of what transpired.
They believed it was a previously undiagnosed heart condition.
That is why I required time to...compensate...afterward. Finding the words to describe it all afterward was...difficult. I am still processing the events, and I have not dreamed since then.
I do not why I am compelled to tell you, but there has been no one else who I am close enough to, to discuss it with. I am not insinuating that you do not have a right to be angry, as that seems to be a natural human inclination. That is all.
