Hell's Gate

Another day, another unusual sensor reading - this time relayed to the Avandar by one of the long-range probes that have been launched to roam the Sector. At first glance the readings appeared to be some sort of energy fluctuation, but as the Avandar closed in on the area to investigate it became clear there was more to it than that.

The source of the readings was traced to beneath the surface of a large chunk of rock, a chunk that appeared to once have been a significant part of a moon. Also present, landed on the surface, was a small craft broadcasting a radio signal that proved very hard to get any sort of translation on - and no life signs. Something about the composition of the rock, perhaps with artificial help, made scans largely ineffective, but it was possible to discover that the energy readings showed significant similarities to the signature given off by Iconian technology.

With no intention of leaving something like that laying about, an Away Team was deployed by shuttle to the planetoid's surface, but almost immediately ran into trouble. Communications began to fail very quickly, and a storm began moving in on them - a storm that appeared seemingly from nowhere, and bore all the signs of being artificially generated.

As the Away Team moved to find shelter, the Avandar searched for some way to both disrupt the storm and regain contact with the team. Unfortunately, the best solution for both of those seemed to be to break up the storm directly - and hope that the crew on the planetoid were not caught in the backlash...
