Intelligence immediately starts to investigate the evidence found on the Lament, and what they find spells danger for both StarBase 118 and the Trinity sector. A corporation called Emerald Dragon Enterprises has been buying large quantities of both calcium trisulfanese and Gold Dew. Emerald Dragon Enterprises is run by a wealthy Romulan merchant named Lhara Khota. At first glance it appears to be a completely legitimate company, but with deeper digging the crew finds that Khota and Emerald Dragon Enterprises have ties to the [[Ralaaram Ocala]]. An immediate plan is put into place to dig out this weapons dealing, before it puts tons of hard to track explosives into the hands of Romulan terrorists. All evidence point to the Miranda VII Spaceport being the site of the next trade. | Intelligence immediately starts to investigate the evidence found on the Lament, and what they find spells danger for both StarBase 118 and the Trinity sector.

Lt Commander Falcon decides to head to the brig where Counselor [[Ashley Yael]], Dr [ | Lt Commander Falcon decides to head to the brig where Counselor [[Ashley Yael]], Dr [[Pon Pon]] and Ensign [[Lucien Landau]] are questioning Zel Rohan to little avail when an unexpected power surge rips through the security section and all power fails. Zel immediately mobilizes, but instead of trying to flee he dives for cover as several deadly disruptor shots tear through the darkness and the security guards try to locate the assassin. They are hampered by panic in the civilian section outside of security where an entire zoo full of animals have gotten out of their cages at the exact same time the power surge went off. Finding themselves dealing with an experienced - and well planned - assassin, security forces connect with Lt Commander Falcon and try for a pincer attack. It works, and the assassin - a human named Seth Ralston - is seriously injured and taken to sickbay. | ||
Power is quickly restored and security moves out to do animal containment while Falcon tries to press information out of the shaken Zel Rohan. The two have a history together - before Falcon joined Starfleet both were 'suicide runners' - pilots that specialized in making dangerous runs to deliver profitable cargo, frequently through restricted airspace. After a bit of bantering and gentle threats Zel reveals that Drin Jerol, the first officer of the Annabelle's Lament is not only alive (Zel saw him on the MIranda VII Spaceport several days after the destruction of the Lament) but Zel firmly believes Jerol is actually Nacien Rixx, an ex-Orion Syndicate crimelord, and head of the criminal Jenatris Confederation. It seems Rixx has been putting out assassin's contracts on anyone who had information about the Annabelle's Lament and Zel was the only one to make it off Miranda VII alive. | Power is quickly restored and security moves out to do animal containment while Falcon tries to press information out of the shaken Zel Rohan.
