Mission Brief | Sky Harbor Aegis | 1 October 2021 11 August 2388 - Stardate 2388.224 TBS is 1 hour, the time is 19:00 (7:00 pm) Aegis Local Aboard the Aegean are Commanders Coleridge, Korjata, and Cayne, with Captain d’Ka of USS Missouri assisting, continue to investigate the unusual phenomenon that could interfere with the creation of a stable warp field. The blue bubble that surrounds the station could cut Sky Harbor Aegis from outside contact except for subspace communication. Starfleet Command has advised all ships to stay away from the area until more information is gathered. The Aegean has gone to investigate and confirm information from the ship Deke Slayton. The bubble that surrounds Aegis has remained stable. The Aegean has advised the Deke Sayton to hold 0.5 AU from the estimated epicentre as a precaution.

Science and Engineering are watching an unusual phenomenon that is interfering with the creation of a stable warp field. So far a blue bubble that surrounds the station is unevenly distributed. However, it might encroach on the immediate volume around Aegis, cut us off from any outside contact other than subspace communication, and disrupt equipment that relies on sustained subspace fields. If the bubble is only a few AU in radius, ships can still approach and depart. Subspace comms should be unaffected. However, if the bubble approaches a light-year or more in radius, ships would have no way of reaching Aegis. At this moment, Aegis is not in any immediate danger. We will keep Starfleet Command informed.

The 27th Season begins on the 18 th of August in the year 2388 On the 18th of August in the year 1985, Starbase Aegis was born. Then located in the Canar System, it has since undergone two incarnations: Deep Space Aegis, and the present Sky Harbor Aegis. The station and its crew have endured the Dominion, the Klingon Empire, and the Cardassian Wars, plus countless other threats from within and outside the bounds of Federation space and the Joint Allied Powers. As we begin the season, the date is 18 August 2388.223. Aegis itself is a strategic base that stands watch between known and unknown areas of space. Led by a powerful group whose resources and abilities have yet to be revealed, the Alien Alliance is building bases on asteroids and planetoids within a string of nebulae that allow them stealth passage from their space to that of the Joint Allied Powers. Their aim is to form a cordon around the Joint Allied Powers, take over Aegis, and use it as a staging ground to conquer the Federation and the Joint Allied Powers. The Alien Alliance has yet to take charge of the Joint Allied Powers, though they continue to try. The Joint Allied Powers are always watching... And they will endure.

18 August 2020 | 17 June 2388 - Stardate 2388.169 As Aegis enters its 26th Season, those inhabiting the station are in more danger than Starfleet Command will disclose. Established in neural space between former Breen space and that of the Joint Allied powers, Aegis has become a target for the Alien Alliance. The Alien Alliance is not only establishing itself throughout a nebula string, they are taking over planetoids and large asteroids in strategic positions to form a cordon around the Joint Allied Powers. Some of their ships and armaments are beyond our ability to counteract. It is said that if they bring us to war it will make every other war look like a party and Aegis will be its center. Task Forces led by modified Akira Class Starships USS Missouri, USS Iowa, USS Toronto, and USS Calgary monitor the areas between Allied and Alien space, keeping a close watch on every move. That said, Aegis has also been dealing with internal attacks. The Vulcan V’Mal came aboard and employed The Stone of Gol, an ancient Vulcan weapon that focuses on an amplified telepathic energy. V’Mal attempted to take hold of Aegis personnel via intense psychic focus. It will never happen again. More recently, the Alien Alliance convinced a naive group we call Gremlins to enter crawl spaces and plant Alien Alliance equipment for future use. As soon as security’s clandestine operators resolved that issue, they had to deal with plants—tasty but deadly—that are being sold on the commerce deck. Add to that Pakleds who enjoy eating the plants and became ill, and we are on the onset of a very interesting year.

Mission Brief | Sky Harbor Aegis | 13 August 2021 9 August 2388 - Stardate 2388.222 TBS is 6 hours, the time is 0400 (04:00) Aegis Local From Commander Scott Coleridge, Executive Officer, Sky Harbor Aegis To Captain Chirakis, SI-5, Commanding Officer, Sky Harbor Aegis To Starfleet Command via Subspace Portal We have been experiencing an unusual new phenomenon that is interfering with the creation of a stable warp field in the vicinity of Aegis. So far a blue bubble that surrounds the station is not evenly distributed. Some vessels can get through easily, but the phenomenon might encroach on the immediate volume around Aegis. If that grows too large it would effectively cut us off from any outside contact other than subspace communication. Depending on the intensity of the phenomenon, it could disrupt equipment that relies on sustained subspace fields like the FTL processors in the computer systems. Subspace comms should be unaffected because long-range communications happen through a different effect. If the bubble is only a few AU in radius, it is an inconvenience. Ships can still approach and depart on impulse. If the bubble approaches a light-year or more in radius, ships would have no way of reaching Aegis. Their warp field would collapse as they approach, but they would be too far away to reach us on impulse in any practical period of time. Some of this is speculation, since we don't have a full comprehension of what the effect is doing. At this moment, Aegis is not in any immediate danger. We would have plenty of time to evacuate. We will keep you informed. Commander Scott Coleridge Executive Officer, Sky Harbor Aegis

It's interfering with the creation of stable warp fields in the vicinity of Aegis. Scott Coleridge: So far this has only disrupted shipping traffic. The effect has been highly localized. We've been trying to probe it with sensors, and science vessels are en route for a more detailed investigation. Chirakis: ::relaxing in the chair, listening::: Scott Coleridge: Our primary concern is that the phenomenon might encroach on the immediate volume around Aegis. If it grows too large it would effectively cut us off from any outside contact other than subspace communication. Scott Coleridge: Commander Tarisa, can you update us on the latest findings and any hypotheses you have so far? mimipavilion: ::listening:: Tarisa: Our findings are very slim at the moment, and I wish to not make a hypothesis until we can get more insight. At the moment we do not even know if this event is caused naturally or artificial. Amanda Davis PhD: :::crossing the hall:: Dacia, the Lieutenants who are in the trauma unit... I assume they are cared for? ::looks up to take notes::: Scott Coleridge: ::Tarisa:: Other than the warp field suppression, is there any indication of other danger? Radiation? Tarisa: ::Shakes head.:: No indications so far. Scott Coleridge: Good. I would hate to have to evacuate the station so soon after we just got moved back in. Amanda Davis PhD: ::realizing that Dacia is very busy, she moves on::: Dacia Sandero: Yes, they have been. They seem to be doing well now.. they are resting. Dacia Sandero: Well, well enough. Scott Coleridge: If this continues for much longer, we may need to prepare for supply delays. Scott Coleridge: ::Nijil:: Make sure that the industrial replicators are all online in case there's a corresponding increase in load. mimipavilion: ::doesn't like the sound of 'supply delays':: Nijil tr'Korjata: :: nods : sure Amanda Davis PhD: Oh, good. Scott Coleridge: So far the phenomenon isn't evenly distributed around Aegis, so some vessels are getting through fine. But we have no guarantee that will last. Scott Coleridge: ::Tarisa:: Other than the impending science vessel, are there any other resources you need? Tarisa: I was waiting on the logs from the freighter that first encountered it. Otherwise, anything else will be forwarded to you on a list. Chirakis: ::knowing that she is no scientist, she listens and takes notes:: Scott Coleridge: Any questions? Chirakis: Yes, Commander. Scott Coleridge: Yes, Captain? Chirakis: ::leaning forward:: Explain what might happen if the phenomena change and Aegis is surrounded by.... whatever. Nijil tr'Korjata: Computer core issues. Scott Coleridge: ::shifts the view on the display so that a blue bubble surrounds Aegis:: mimipavilion: ::looks at display:: Scott Coleridge: As Nijil says, depending on the intensity of the phenomenon, it could disrupt equipment that relies on sustained subspace fields like the FTL processors in the computer systems. Subspace comms should be unaffected because long-range communications happens through a different effect. Scott Coleridge: If the bubble is only a few AU in radius, it is an inconvenience. Ships can still approach and depart on impulse. Chirakis: :::thinking.. or at least trying to::: Scott Coleridge: But if the bubble approaches a light-year or more in radius, it would mean ships would have no way of reaching Aegis. Their warp field would collapse as they approach, but they would be too far away to reach us on impulse in any practical period of time. Scott Coleridge: Remember that some of this is speculation, since we don't have a full comprehension of what the effect is doing. Chirakis: ...and those in Aegis would be left inside the bubble... if possible? Scott Coleridge: Yes. But right now we aren't in any immediate danger of that happening. We'd have plenty of time to evacuate. Chirakis: Understood.... Chirakis: Anything else? Amanda Davis PhD: ::continuing rounds::: Scott Coleridge: Nothing from me. Any other questions? Chirakis: :::looks around::: Nijil tr'Korjata: :: looks at his 'friend' :: Chirakis: Very well... ::Nods as she stands:: Scott Coleridge: Seeing no other questions... meeting dismissed.

Dacia Sandero: ::checks on the security officer:: Dacia Sandero: ::writes some notes in her PADD, them moves back to her office:: Chirakis: Commander Coleridge... a moment please. mimipavilion: ::nods, gets up and leaves:: Scott Coleridge: ::waits:: Nijil tr'Korjata: +Davis+ I need to speak to you. Chirakis: Commander, this problem is all yours. If there is anything I can do, let me know. Other than that, you are in command. Scott Coleridge: I see.

Mission Brief | Sky Harbor Aegis | 6 August 2021 9 August 2388 - Stardate 2388.222 TBS is 11 hours the time is 0900 (09:am) Aegis Local Lt Jim Pine and Lt Hank Slym are recovering from extensive wounds in the medical complex. Captain Chirakis believes that the Krakraldz Cartel has regrouped to take over Aegis and its environs. Their leader is Kraka. Small particle waves are disrupting warp fields for cargo ships coming toward Aegis. The cargo ship Dennison has slowed its ship to impulse power. Science and engineering continue to work through the information they have gathered. Starfleet has modified a route to approach the station.

Kraka They called their boss Kraka, the name taken from a dangerous man-eating bird that would hide within the trees and wait until its prey moved below. The bird would then quietly spread its wings, drop from the tree, pounce, and devour its prey before the creature could take a breath. In essence Kraka would do the same: devour his prey. Their leader was the Kraka, and Kirel wanted to kill him. “Kirel,” said Dr Bill Slater as he quietly stepped up next to her in the trauma unit. At 0400 Aegis local the doctor was making his rounds as usual. And only Slater knew that the two officers in ICU were high-level recon security operatives. Kirel’s killing expression softened. “Coffee?” “Yes. Thank you,” she replied, pushing out of the chair to walk away. “And if I were in my office I would douse it with ale,” she smirked. “We’ll have to do that some time.” “And I’ll be there, you can bet on that! For now, we’ll grab some coffee and use my office to….” An almost whispered, “Captain?” Then a cough came from behind as they rounded the corner, then trotted back. “You there, Cap?” “I’m here, Jim. Settle down. Doctor Slater’s here too. Relax.” “Hell, Cap… uh ma’am. Heck of pain in my head, and gees ma’am….” “Pine. Relax… and that’s an order. Got it?” “Yes, ma’am,” he groaned, resting back on the bed as soon as the medical staff arrived. Kirel stepped out of ICU and began to pace up and down the corridor. She would kill that man. She would kill his cohorts. She would kill Kraka.

Science and engineering are gathering warp field information. Starfleet has sent an advisory to all ships in the area. The Kakraldz Cartel has not been seen for over ten years. It is possible that they have joined with Ragor Tal. Lts Pine and Lt Slym are recovering well.

Chirakis: (And now I assume the children are always eating and that Dr Pavilion would change your diet.) Jylliene: (LOL - well, growing children DO eat remarkably like a Hobbit's meal schedule.) Tae'Lynn Dran: Nothing new yet. I'm checking astrometric charts to see if anything might alter the wave. Annisha: No, I mean I'm not sure what I'm eating. Chirakis: (You're eating, and you don't know what it is? Hm...) Alexis McFarland: What did you order? Nijil tr'Korjata: :: Goes to the Situation Desk :: mimipavilion: ::pulls up their latest file updates:: Looks like Lt. Pine is more alert than Lt. Slym, so you can talk to him for a bit, but don't be surprised if things are still in a fog for him. Cdr Wyatt Cayne: :: Scanning the sector :: Annisha: A sandwich with an egg and veggie beef patty. Chirakis: ::considering the situation::: Dacia Sandero: ::checks on them:: I guess they look ok. Alexis McFarland: hm, sounds like brunch. Chirakis: ::nods:: I'll try to visit them later, Doctor. Thank you. mimipavilion: ::nods:: Annisha: And are these skinny fries or fat hashbrowns? :: puts a bunch in her mouth :: Alexis McFarland: How does the veggie beef patty taste? Like beef? Alexis McFarland: I think they're hashbrown fries.

Tae'Lynn Dran: I've prepared a list of possible extremes the station could encounter if the wave does increase. I should run it by engineering to see if there's anything they need to prepare for. Alexis McFarland: ::munching on a nugget:: I'm gonna miss days like these... Nijil tr'Korjata: :: Sees her standing across from the Situation table. Nijil does not say anything, and neither does she :: Tarisa: Good idea. I am sure they will want to be involved. CdrBrown: ::approaches his console, nodding to folks as he approaches:: Tae'Lynn Dran: I've not seen any detailed reports from the fighter. Annisha: The sandwich tastes like it always does, but since I've never had beef I don't know. Alexis McFarland: Beef tastes like beef. Scott Coleridge: ::arrives on CnC:: Cdr Wyatt Cayne: Other than the particle issue there is little to report. Cargo vessels are keeping their distance for now.

Dacia Sandero: ::she moves onto other patients in sickbay and checks on other things:: Tarisa: Perhaps they are still out of range. Cdr Wyatt Cayne: They are sending their data to us as they gather it, but the particle density seems to be increasing. Scott Coleridge: ::Brown:: What's going on? Tae'Lynn Dran: ::steps to the TL:: Amanda Davis PhD: ::checks her PADD and notices that they both have been given sedatives so she leaves them alone to sleep::: Nijil tr'Korjata: :: to *her* :: Muuhi did this... :: The tall felinoid woman merely nodded.

Jylliene: :::just glad to be able to kinda listen in and keep a bit of an idea of what is going on:: Tae'Lynn Dran: ::exits TL near engineering decks:: CdrBrown: ::turns to Scott:: Commander, just getting updates on the wave and effects on the Dennison. Commander Cayne has informed me the particle density is increasing Scott Coleridge: We still have no idea of the source? Tae'Lynn Dran: ::enters the main engineering area:: Cdr Wyatt Cayne: It's like an incoming storm on Earth. Tae'Lynn Dran: ::sees Nijil and approaches:: Nijil tr'Korjata: :: Nijil looked up, then to Dran :: CdrBrown: ::shakes his head:: not yet. If it is naturally occurring, it is very intense for that phenomenon. mimipavilion: ::while listening, gets a feeling that Aegis has a bad history of repeating history:: Nijil tr'Korjata: Something new with the particles? We are reinforcing the shields around the computer core. Alexis McFarland: Hm ::finishes her nuggets and watches people go by:: CdrBrown: We won't know more until more advanced sensors can get in range. Right now we are relying on the Dennison's reports Tae'Lynn Dran: I have the parameters of the incoming subspace wave, in case you need to prepare any systems. Chirakis: ::::frowns, reading through information from Rendezvous October::: : Cdr Wyatt Cayne: The area of effect is large. Chirakis: :::Looks up::: I'll be in my office. Keep me apprised. Annisha: :: Drinking her drink :: CdrBrown: And when it gets towards us, if it continues to intensify, even our ships will have difficulty establishing warp fields. Nijil tr'Korjata: :: Nods :: Place it on the table and it will copy the data. Tae'Lynn Dran: I also had some questions for you, not directly in regard to the wave. Tae'Lynn Dran: ::sets down the padd:: Nijil tr'Korjata: :: The PADD does a happy chirp and an animation showing data flowing starts :: Nijil tr'Korjata: Sure. Tae'Lynn Dran: It is about your recent translocation. Nijil tr'Korjata: My vacation in time and space? Chirakis: ::enters her office and secures the door. The office dims and she swivels her chair to enter the code she needs to enter RO::: Nijil tr'Korjata: :: Watched the data flowing, then its completion :: Tae'Lynn Dran: Yes, I was reviewing some of the records. Is it true the place you found yourself was the same location that was the source of transmission that were being uncontrollably broadcast across the station? Scott Coleridge: ::Brown:: Has Starfleet Command been advised? Nijil tr'Korjata: That seems to fit the data, yes. :: Nijil laughed :: I know how they later do it. I'm still pouring over the broadcast. Amanda Davis PhD: :::moving through the medical complex::: CdrBrown: ::looks at Scott:: yes sir, they dispatched a science ship to the area. We expect the first data feeds from the Deke Slayton to arrive this evening sometime Tae'Lynn Dran: And the source was actually in the past, speaking in a linear temporal sense? mimipavilion: ::glad the particle field issue is not her problem at the moment, but she knows it will be in due time:: Nijil tr'Korjata: Over 1400 years. Prani likely knows the exact temporal coordinates. Chirakis: :::exits her office::: Tae'Lynn Dran: ::makes a note of that:: Nijil tr'Korjata: Actually, I may know it. :: Nijil perked up :: I'll work on that. :: the data from the padd filled the desk :: Tae'Lynn Dran: I am following up a theory. It was proposed that the asteroid field that Aegis now resides are the remains of that planet. Chirakis: ::listening to the conversation::: Nijil tr'Korjata: Yes, and in astronomical time spans it seems off, but I was there on that planet before it happened. CdrBrown: ::to Cayne:: have we gotten an updated projection on when we can expect the wave to reach us? Cdr Wyatt Cayne: :: Cayne realized he was more ferrying data than scanning for unknown ships :: Cdr Wyatt Cayne: Estimates put it at over two days. Tae'Lynn Dran: If you are able I was wondering if you could provide me with any geographic and biological observations you may have made while there. CdrBrown: ::nods:: thank you. ::sees Cayne wanting to divert his attention back towards his regular duties:: Tae'Lynn Dran: There have been some interesting samples recovered from the asteroid field and I might be able to confirm some correlations . Nijil tr'Korjata: Prani and I were both engineers, fittingly, but Muuhi was the doctor. I think I can help you in that department as well. Nijil tr'Korjata: Is the correlation natural or artificial? Chirakis: :::listening to the conversation::: CdrBrown: ::looks at Coleridge:: Figure we should have data from the Deke Slayton this evening, give each of the departments the night to evaluate the data and see how it will impact their operations.... Stakeholder meeting at 0600 tomorrow? Tae'Lynn Dran: I hope none of this is too personal. We are, in quite a literal sense, floating in their graveyard right now. Alexis McFarland: I wonder what we should do now. Wanna go another raid in the holosuite? Dacia Sandero: ::settles back into her office to write up a few reports:: Annisha: Oh we need to finish that? How many pelts do we need to return to that guy? Nijil tr'Korjata: No, well... I had many experiences while I was there. I was living another life while repairing their machine. Alexis McFarland: I think we needed six more, then he'd give us the key to the old abandoned barn. Nijil tr'Korjata: :: Nijil glanced over at the... projection of Muuhi :: Nijil tr'Korjata: After my time with Doctor Muuhi, nothing is really personal. Scott Coleridge: ::Brown:: Let's make it 0900. CdrBrown: ::nods:: understood. I'll call the meeting for then. Nijil tr'Korjata: And I miss my ears, her ears. They were also..pointed. Nijil tr'Korjata: :: looks at the data :: A storm is approaching.. Annisha: No copper pieces? Tae'Lynn Dran: I see. Any data you can provide would be useful. I've simulated the asteroid’s movements back to a general spherical formation. More details of its original composition can help explain some inconsistencies. Nijil tr'Korjata: I keep on thinking I can help the Yith, but I don't think the Federation likes messing with time. CdrBrown: I am also going to get in touch with the last dozen ships that transited the route, both inbound and outbound, to get their engine room data. It may help us determine where or when the wave originated. Alexis McFarland: I think I still have a few in my chest. Tarisa: Miana> Ohhh. I think we need a couple more ore nodes for the Old Mister Miner as well. Nijil tr'Korjata: Do you need biological data about the Yith? Cultural musings? Tae'Lynn Dran: Biological and geological. Alexis McFarland: Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Tae'Lynn Dran: Cultural musings would only be helpful if they refer to the former two subjects. Nijil tr'Korjata: I keep expecting someone to make light of my time as someone else. I need to write it down. Nijil tr'Korjata: They were deep into EDM. :: shrugs :: Nijil tr'Korjata: If you can find out what happened I would be grateful. Tae'Lynn Dran: I don't think that info will help me reform a map of their continents, but I will let you know. Nijil tr'Korjata: I can draw that from memory Chirakis: =/\==/\=PAUSE SIM=/\==/\= Chirakis: =/\==/\=PAUSE SIM=/\==/\= Chirakis: Thank you Chirakis: It seems that we'll be very busy soon...
