Wister is posted to HMS ''Coldone'' for five years. In 2399, the Royal Navy retire the vessel, and its crew is placed on land postings until a new vessel bearing the ''Coldone'' name is commissioned. Wister is offered a secondment to [[Starfleet Medical]] for the duration of this period. However, he and Panam bicker about Wister taking a posting with Starfleet, with the potential to end up far from Earth—Panam prefers the immediate accessibility of their family, and Wister being assigned off-planet jeaprodises this. They eventually agree that Wister should take the opportunity, but Panam and baby Sara remain home. | Wister is posted to HMS ''Coldone'' for five years, where he serves in a dual role as the ship's coxswain and medic.

Assured by administration that his posting with Starfleet was "basically the Navy but in space", Wister was sent to [[Amity Outpost]], located in the [[Delta Quadrant]] far from Earth. He arrives on his birthday. Bewildered by the large space station, especially as this is his first time in space, Wister meets [[Scotty Reade]], who directs him to the commander of Amity Outpost, Ambassador [[Rivi Vataix]]. Wister later introduces himself to his department head, [[Ikaia Wong]], and the outpost's executive officer [[Wil Ukinix]]. | |||
Amity Outpost plays host to [[Hirogen]] delegates invited by Vataix. Wong gives Wish xenobiological data on the Hirogen, and while he appreciates the run-down, he queries the CMO about his tense feelings about the situation. Wong explains two Amity officers lost their lives to the Hirogen a year prior. The medical team follow through with a display of holographic advancements for the Hirogen. It's then announced the Starfleet contingent of Amity would partake in a series of joint exercises in mixed teams against each other and the Hirogen—which Wish had significant reservations about. | |||
