Aresee was born to Jarin Ventu and Matilda Tayler in 2352. Matilda had been warned earlier in her life that she carried a genetic marker that made neurochemical imbalance almost certain in any children she might have, and so the couple decided not to have children. Aresee was an accidental child and, even knowing the risks, the couple wanted a child and went ahead with the birth.

Don't take it at face value; don't trust anyone. I know for a fact that you were attacked on your way to Starbase 118. That's only the latest in a string of odd coincidences surrounding your ship and this mission. Don't let your guard down. Take this to the captain if you need to convince her to use extra caution, but just remember that I cannot tell you anything more. I can't cause the timeline to shift. ::pause:: I wish I could.
