*[[Tallis & Toni's Marriage]]: 239003.17  

After her marriage to Ambassador Tallis Rhul, a Bajoran, Toni maintained the name as Toni Turner professionally, but when accompanying her husband, she used a name more fitting for Rhul's Bajoran heritage - Tallis Antonia. Unfortunately, and officially, Ambassador Tallis Rhul was killed defending Til'ahn from a Bluegill infestation that came through an ancient Iconian Gateway, ending their seven-month marriage. Toni was two months pregnant at the time of his death. That pregnancy produced a daughter,[[Turner-Tallis, Breeana|Breeana Turner-Tallis]], born 239102.15.

After graduation, Toni was assigned to her first post as a counselor at the Embassy on Duronis II. It wasn't long before the CMO noticed that she had an aptitude for a career as a Medical Officer and began training her to take over his job when he retired. The more she learned the more she wanted to learn, so she enrolled into a correspondence course studying for her degree and interning under the CMO's direction. Most things she learned from watching him, and when he retired, she stepped into the role of CMO, but kept up her studies until she had enough credits to become a full fledged Doctor of Medicine.

In 2388, immediately after the Destruction of Romulus and Remus, rioting broke out as anti-Romulan protesters took to the streets in an attempt to drive Romulan forces from the planet. The Romulan Ambassador was recalled to help with more pressing diplomatic issues elsewhere, but a number of Romulan operatives remained in control of government ministries. The Laudeans, having watched their culture deteriorate during their alliance with the Romulans, took the opportunity to contact the Federation, inviting them back to Duronis II for protection from renegade Romulans, the fragmented Tal Shiar, or any other opportunistic species that could endanger their culture. The Federation agreed, and sent the crew of USS Thunder, captained by Toni Turner, to reopen the Embassy, and serve as its staff.

;

By the time the USS Thunder arrived, the Laudeans had ousted the remaining Romulans, and had taken over the Federation Embassy for their own office use. Prime Minister Ahishma Chandra, now back in office, gave the Federation representatives, the newly renovated Romulan Embassy instead as insurance that the Romulans would not try to reoccupy it.
