StarBase 118 Staff Posted February 9 Posted February 9 KORELI SYSTEM, GAMMA QUADRANT — The USS Octavia E. Butler has set course for Koreli IV to assist the Danni people in ongoing humanitarian relief efforts following widespread flooding on their world. Before departing on their new mission, the crew took time to enjoy a unique experience aboard Celestial Cruises’ luxury liner, Prophet’s Gaze. The vessel offers twice-daily journeys through the Bajoran wormhole, providing passengers with breathtaking views of its swirling, otherworldly colors—visible only from within the wormhole itself. During the voyage, the Octavia E. Butler’s command team recognized crew members for their exemplary service, awarding several promotions and commendations. After more than three decades of Federation presence in the Gamma Quadrant, Starfleet continues to gain ground as a force for stability in the region. Meanwhile, the United Dominion of Planets has struggled to establish control over the vast territories once ruled by its predecessor. The Octavia E. Butler’s current mission involves making second contact with the Danni people, who initially applied for Federation protectorate status two years ago. However, the request was withdrawn a year later while still under consideration. Sources indicate this decision was influenced by an agreement with the Zet, who now hold significant control over the Danni government. Upon the ship’s arrival, it was revealed that the top Zet leader, King Ma’det’ain’ths’ng’in’Grend, had died and was succeeded by King Toal’Dius. What impact this leadership change will have on the Danni people—and Starfleet’s relief efforts—remains uncertain. Unconfirmed reports suggest the Octavia E. Butler has missed its most recent check-in with Starfleet Command. Further updates will be provided as information becomes available. Written by Bianca Solaire View the full article
