Locations of the (crew of the) USS Atlantis:
- In Deasian space, approximately 1,7 light years away from the planet Helteka in the Andari system, in the Gamma Quadrant, at a position roughly 1000 light years from the wormhole.
- The planet Helteka
- Pandora Station.
Summary:
- 2392.07.15:
With the battle of the previous day still fresh in their memories, the various crews of the convoy ships continued to do their jobs. The damage was severe, and casualties were many, but it could have been much, much worse if the crew of the Atlantis had not interfered when they did. Even so, the convoy was in a bad shape, as was the Atlantis. Still, the L'tari convoy had to finish their repairs quickly, since the crews still had a job to do: the convoy still had to reach Helteka.
- 2392.07.16
In the Alpha Quadrant, Ensign Dane, future crewmember of the Atlantis, waited on Pandora Station for her ship to arrive. While waiting, she was visited by an old friend.
- 2392.07.26
Still between jobs, Ensign Dane came to the rescue of a freighter crew who had all passed out because of an unknown gas in the ventilation system.
- 2392.07.28
Having arrived at Helteka, the crews of the Atlantis and the convoy ships began unloading the much-needed supplies. Aid Master Traa arranged for a small ceremony to take place on the irradiated planet, where he bestowed upon the Atlantis senior crew the title of 'Heroes of the L'tari'.
After the ceremony, Captain Torn and Commander Velden decided that the Atlantis would stay in orbit of the planet for another two days in order to help the Heltekans to the best of the crew's abilities. After that meeting, Doctor Kadar talked to Velden and suggested that the Captain be temporarily relieved of duty due to the injuries to his eyes -- the Captain had been nearly blinded during the battle two weeks ago. Velden, however, objected to this, stating that Captain Torn was still perfectly fit to command a Starship. After a heated debate between Velden, Kadar and the EMH, Velden ordered Kadar to drop the matter.
- 2392.07.30
After having said farewell to the crews of the freighters they had commanded during this mission, the crew of the Atlantis returned to the Federation Starship and left orbit of Helteka to return to the Alpha Quadrant, determined to plead the Heltekans' and Deasians' case for the Federation Council.
- 2392.10.12
After a journey of three months (due to the damaged transwarp drive), the Atlantis arrived at Pandora Station. Captain Torn would disembark to face a Starfleet hearing about the decisions he had made during the convoy mission, while the rest of the crew would be able to enjoy shore leave. The short visit from Leon Nerfertii, second officer and STC of the Odyssey and former STC of the Atlantis, came as a pleasant surprise to Captain Torn and several other Atlantis crewmembers.
