The harmony worlds of the Netra-Dax were usually in immediate consensus upon what their vessels and units would do; The discussions would last mere picoseconds, a complex debate of ideas and susceptibilities that would take months for a less-artificial group of minds, and end with their decided actions being initiated within the second.

It came to be a surprise, then, to the entirety of the Chroniclers that the decision of what actions to take in accordance to a Passan vessel passing border-sensors, with seeming intent to mobilize towards the central core of their system network, and showing no signs of reprieve, took several full seconds before concordance was met. To the intelligences that made up the Netra-Dax, such a length in discussion upon a harmony world would be as if a debate rolled into several years, possibly even a decade of disagreement. The action that would have to be taken needed to be precise, diplomatic, and assuring that the systems of the Netra-Dax would not come under the scrutiny of the might of the Passan Nomads.

As the decision was met, from an assistance world, a single Chronicler sped off, the dusting glow of Mystys behind it indicating it was in a most definite hurry, with its own trajectory directly targeting the Passan's vessel. Whatever decision was made, the machine had a lack of weaponry, indicating that it had been a non-aggressive conclusion to their long argument.
