LOCATION
Various locations within the Sirkovsky Expanse.
(] SUMMARY [)
The Brunhilde mission is under command of 2O PaRel, along with ACEO Finlay, Counselor Lando as pilot, and MCPO Portnoy at tactical. They found the Meade near a twin-star system, being salvaged by a Breen warship. They destroyed the Meade, and were captured by, and escaped from, the Breen. They are now part of the way back, but are without warp drive. They are negotiating for another one with a Vorta named Meyfun who makes her living scavanging in the expanse.
During the MVA, the three sections ran into a dark-matter particle storm and are all disabled to varying degrees and currently out of communication with each other. Alpha section is commanded by the Captain. They have met up with a Varnii warship and are in the middle of a first-contact situation with them. The ship's Chief Medical Officer, Brigit MacKenzie, and the Assistant Chief Science Officer, Ensign Fletcher, have just beamed over with Commander Vel of the Varnii ship.
The Beta section has found the survivors of the Meade on a class-N world that the survivors have dubbed New Meade. Beta section is commanded by First Officer Byrne, and an away team led by Science officer Anita Alvarez has gone to the planet's surface - mostly water - to make contact with the Meade survivors. There is also a colony of Varnii living there. Ensign Decker was attacked by a shark, and Nurse Lang has taken him to sick bay. Two of the Varnii tried to steal the away team's shuttle and crashed it in the ocean. They were rescued by the away team and Meade survivors, and inadvertantly got beamed up to the ship, where they are in hiding. Ensign Masters, the pilot on the away mission, has beamed down to the shuttle to try and retrieve it, but is trapped there with a dead shark who laid eggs in the main compartment before dying.
Gamma section is commanded by Chief CONN officer Emile Schofield. He has made contact with a Raq'hil warship, the Ghattan, commanded by General Dru'phen. Dru'phen convinced Schofield to come to the Raq'hil homeworld where he has made contact with Emperor Mordkhal. After a tense beginning, negotiations are progressing and Schofield has just called on Gamma section to come and join him at a celebratory banquet.
