Captain`s Log Stardate 08022012

Starfleet wants me to compile and file all reports into one bundle now, and forward them weekly to Earth Headquarters. What the Fleet wants, the fleet gets. How more liberal did things seem to go back in the 22nd century, I can`t imagine legendary commanders like Shrann being bogged down in paperwork...



Something is brewing in Romulan space.

Admiral T`nae, commander of Starbase 39, has ordered us to take the Ice Kraken and investigate an old abandoned Romulan megastation, known as The Vault. We soon discovered though that it wasn`t abandoned at all, and encountered some Romulan refugees. After opening the bay doors, we soon found out The Vault was a secret weapons research station, as a Borg Sphere was chained to all kinds of devices in there.




Further in we did discover who it`s current occupiers where, namely the Remans who are constructing a Thalaron Device, highly forbidden by all the powers in the quadrant.



We managed to escape with the data, but this let us to one of the mining moons of the Hfahir system.
A Ferengi entrepreneur named Madran runs a drilling operation here, and I beamed down with Twenty-Four to investigate. This whole base turned out to be a listening post for the Romulan Tal Shiar!



We managed to free some captive Romulan miners and steal valuable data, which after decoding seems to suggest that the Tal Shiar plans an attack on a Reman base...

On a different note, we discovered a Horta in the mines, a race long forgotten but in the records of Starfleet. The mother has granted me one of her youngs to accompany us on our journeys and to get the Horta back into touch with the current universe after their self-imposed exile of nearly two centuries...




Obituary

It is my sad duty to inform that crewman Morot died during an attempt to immunize a local colony against Synthococcus Novae. I will inform his family he died in the line of duty while giving everything he had to save the innocent colonists.
