abstract
  • Station crew are rebuilding after the attack by the Shedai Wanderer as Desai tries to come to terms with Reyes being alive. She reasons that their relationship cannot resume since he is a convict who has collaborated with the enemy. Having no one to share his joy of Reyes being alive with, Ezekiel Fisher shares this knowledge with a tree memorializing Hallie Gannon and the crew of the USS Bombay. A plaque beside the tree reads, “Our deaths are not ours, they are yours; they will mean what you make them” and lists the 224 crew manifest. Fisher's thoughts turn to the friends they've both lost over the years, and he starts to dwell on a mission while serving aboard the USS Dauntless nine years earlier. Admiral Heihachiro Nogura sends Desai and Fisher to encourage colonists on Kadru to evacuate since Starfleet cannot defend it as well as to investigate the death of a friend and officer, Commander Aole Miller, who was sent there with the same assignment. Desai challenges that they are being sent away because of their closeness to Reyes, believing that Nogura is planning to extract him. Nogura sharply forgives the insubordination and dismisses the duo for their mission. En route, Desai and Captain Khatami of the Endeavor get into a heated discussion over General Order 24 when Desai mentions that the colonists don’t trust Starfleet after ships (including the Endeavor) assaulted Gamma Tauri IV. Khatami is offended when Desai asks her how she would feel if Kirk had exercised General Order 24 on Deneva where Khatami’s family live. Desai is becoming uncomfortable with the moral conundrums Operation Vanguard has put her in. When Desai and Fisher arrive at their assignment, they encounter apathy and aggression from the colonists who refuse to leave the planet because they find the Federation oppressive and don’t trust Starfleet but they are clearly hiding something. The two uncover that the colonists are being secretive and seclusive to protect a local creature whose blood has miraculous medicinal uses. They are afraid if knowledge of this creature becomes public it will be hunted to extinction. The Miller's death is discovered to have been accidental. Desai finds herself more at odds with Nogura after helping the colonists draft legal documents allowing them to stay. Desai requests a transfer to Earth which Nogura gladly makes happen. Desai confesses to Fisher that her reason for leaving is that she loves Reyes but doesn’t want to watch his story unfold while being powerless to help him. Aboard the Omari-Ekon, Reyes is angered when Ganz sends a servant girl with features similar to Desai’s to seduce him. He gazes through a window at the station hoping Desai is somewhere gazing back at him.
