The AT having uncovered new information has returned to the shuttle with incident, but Tandaris believes they'll need to return to the Excalibur, which has waited patiently cloaked in orbit, to be able to crack the encryption on the PADD they found in the contact's quarters. We pick up en route to Excalibur, leaving Hoth-like-planet behind.

Having discovered some unsettling secrets on the planet and a holocube we hope will point us in the right direction, we pick up in another meeting to discuss findings of the above.

The Excalibur is en route to the coordinates we discovered from the holocube that was found at an abandoned Dominion facility. The holocube indicated that the cloning facility has been moved to another planet within the held territory of the Hundred. Our cloak has continued to function well and keep us from harm. We're now almost in sensor range of the coordinates.

Excalibur has arrived at the coordinates for the Hundred base where they'd hoped to find the missing team they were tracking; on arrival they found a pitched battle between Dominion forces and most unusually -- the USS Ardent. We have driven off the attackers, but not before a Jem'Hadar vessel broke off from the station and fled to high warp. We pick up with more questions than we had to start with.

An away team from Excalibur has shuttled to the Dominion (Hundred) controlled base where they are looking for survivors. Excalibur is assisting the Ardent with repairs while Corizon and Swain talk in private about the situation.

On the Excalibur, work continues on tracking the ship that left in a hurry, healing wounds, and repairing both starships. On the base, the Team has linked back up with the advanced tactical team, where they've found themselves on the flank of a shoot out -- as we paused they were about to attempt to swing the battle in our allies favor.

The Excalibur has rescued some of the members of the original Starfleet team as well as several Romulans who were working on another project and are apparently connected to the reason the Ardent and Corizon are in orbit. The bad news, however, is that the leader of the Romulan science team and the leader of Starfleet team were apparently taken hostage by the attacking Jem'Hadar -- who fled in the closing moments of the battle.

Last week, we learned that the Romulans were working with the Hundred to refine a subspace weapon based upon a similar device originally constructed by the crew of the Excalibur nearly 5 years ago at the height of the Scorpiad Conflict when Corizon contemplated his directive to interdict the wormhole. We also learned the identity of the Romulan and Starfleet officer who were taken by the rogue Jem'Hadar along with a prototype of the device.

The Excalibur believes they have located the the general area where the rogue Jem'Hadar vessel has fled to -- a rather unsavory area of space rife with gravimetric disturbances. Engineering has been making modifications to the cloaking device, while science, helm and operations are working with data shared with our new Romulan compatriot on the prototype of the subspace that was stolen, along with a Romulan and Federation officer. Having assured the Ardent is in some shape to make the trip back to Camelot, we have gotten underway ourselves undercloak.

Excalibur has entered into the "soup" of a the gravimetric disturbances in pursuit of the Dominion attack ship that escaped from the station with two crewmembers and the prototype for a subspace weapon originally designed by the Excalibur.

When we last left off, two Jem'Hadar fighters had ambushed Excalibur in the gravitational anomaly field.

The Excalibur has successfully reached sensor range of a Dominion base where they have been tracking a bread-crumb like distress signal from what they believe to be the captured Starfleet officer, Lt. Abronvonvich. After the initial attack, we have not encountered any additional Dominion vessels.

An away team has been assembled and has landed on the Dominion base where we tracked the signal of the captured officers. Sensor readings are murky and unreliable.

After surviving several security measures, which have left a number of the away teams' devices non-functional, they are headed deeper into the complex to the source of the signal. So far, they complex does appear to be empty.

Having successfully rescued the captured crewmen, the Excalibur has exited the spatial disturbance. Swain has called senior staff to the bridge for a brief update after speaking with Camelot via secure comm.

Excalibur has been ordered to return to Camelot, where long-range sensors indicate a large gathering of Starfleet, Klingon and Romulan vessels. Engineering has been working with Arrain Issaha N'Dak on possible counter measures; science and operations are gaming out possible targets for the weapon; while medical is being asked to assist with the ongoing evacuation of civilian and non-critical military personnel, including refugees from the system. We are just outside of the Avalon system when we pick up.

Excalibur has returned to Camelot, where a full-scale evacuation of civilian and non-essential personnel is occurring. Swain and other senior command officers have been meeting on Camelot in strategy sessions. Additional Klingon, Romulan and Federation forces have arrived as they've been recalled from current missions. In addition, another group of Dominon forces have arrived in the system. Engineering is working with Issaha N'Dak on possible counter measures to the weapon, while the rest of the crew has been assigned to assist with the evacuation.

Excalibur has continued to assist in evacuation efforts of the Avalon system, while additional forces previously scattered across the GQ have continued to return to the system, including two Galaxy-class ships assigned to the sector, USS Fuso and Midway. Engineering continues to work with Issaha NDak on counter measures.

Swain has informed his crew that they believe an attempt to close the wormhole is likely; though exact timing remains uncertain. Efforts are being made to finish evacuating the Quadrant of Federation personnel, and discussions are still underway about the future of Camelot itself. A large armed force has been assembled both at the wormhole terminus and at Camelot. Excalibur's engineers are continuing to work, now with he full resources of Camelot on possible counter measures, while the rest of the crew assists in evacuation and prepping the Excalibur for combat.

The last evacuees have left the system and the military forces are beginning to finish final preparations. There continues to be some conversation about whether or not we will abandon Camelot completely or leave a small force behind. President Nanietta Bacco is expected to address the Federation within hours to address the issue. Long range sensor beacons near to the wormhole have detected what could be a force of ships loyal to the rogue faction, but as of the start of tonight we do not have any firm information. A group of Al-Ucard vessels has entered sensor range of Camelot as well.

The Scorpiad Greg has agreed to help us in our efforts to stop the rogue Jem'Hadar fleet from deploying the subspace weapon near the wormhole. With the confirmation of at least 50-60 vessels en route, and no better solutions in hand; Admiral Abronvonvich has been given the order from the Federation president to withdraw our forces from Camelot Station and the Avalon system and join the rest of the fleet at the Gamma Quadrant Terminus of the wormhole. A small force of vessels loyal to the Hundred have arrived to protect the station and we are preparing to break orbit for perhaps the final time.

The Excalibur has arrived outside the Gamma Quadrant terminus of the wormhole, where a combined fleet of Federation, Romulan, Klingon, Bajoran, Al-Ucard and now a Scorpiad warship have taken up a defensive position in an attempt to prevent a faction of rogue Jem'Hadar from using a sub-space weapon. Long-range sensors have detected a grouping of Dominion vessels on long range sensors. They appear to be holding just outside of our range.

The Second Battle of the Wormhole is underway. For the moment, the battle is an even pitch with fighting all over the battlefield. Long range sensors have detected an incoming fleet of Jem'Hadar ships, though it remains unclear if they are friend or foe. Meanwhile four groups have broken through the mainlines, headed for the wormhole on different vectors. Excalibur is leading the "Goal Keeper Squadron" along with four other Akria-class carriers. Our job will be to intercept anyone headed for the wormhole.

The Second Battle of Wormhole has been won. Thanks to the efforts of the Excalibur, the Rogue Jem'hadar threat to the wormhole has been neutralized, but not without a price. Excalibur herself has been heavily damaged and is currently undergoing an inspection to determine if she is salvageable or not while docked a DS9. The fleet itself took fairly high damages as well. The Excalibur senior staff have been notified to come to the DS9 wardroom where rumor is that they will be honored. The Federation president recently addressed the Federation on the crisis and mentioned us by name, apparently we're important now -- or something.
