Upon returning to the Eildyr with his spoils, the [[Losarian]] Captain Kaironn contacts the Columbia to try to talk his way to safety. He portrays himself as caught in a big misunderstanding. [[Mirra Ezo|Lieutenant Commander Ezo]], [[Kalianna Nicholotti|Ambassador Kalianna Nicholotti]], and [[Lunara Hol|Ensign Hol]] begin a conversation with the outwardly cooperative Kaironn. Meanwhile, [[Theo Whittaker|Captain Whittaker]] and [[Pholin Duyzer|Lieutenant JG Duyzer]] attempt to communicate with the personnel on Dehner Base in the conference room by using the probe launched earlier. The thieves abscond with the stolen goods when they discover that the Columbia is in contact with the base and their ruse has failed. The Eildyr engages emergency warp and heads for the Spiral Nebula to wait and make repairs. Can the Columbia recover and give chase?

Professor Jev Crim Glev reveals that the relics stolen from Dehner Base are of Tkon origin, an ancient and powerful civilization that died out more than 600,000 years ago. The priceless artifacts could be very dangerous in the wrong hands. He also explains that much of the information about the Tkon Empire is mere conjecture; built from the myths and legends of several dozen species. There is very little concrete information about the Tkon besides their ability to move stars across the cosmos and that they terraformed worlds, placing sentient computer programs on them known as 'Portals' to guard them.

Commanders Tatash and Ezo interrogate some of the captured boarders and slowly uncover details of Kaironn's plan. Lieutenant Duyzer and Ensign ch'Ranni are tasked with finding the likely position of the foe. In the Astrometrics Lab they use sensor data to follow the path of the Eildyr to a Class 9 Nebula. Commander Walker, despite injuries, is able to make repairs and get the impulse engines patched in record time. Unfortunately, she is exposed to a radiation stream in the impulse manifold and must be transported to the Biohazard Ward for treatment.

Commander Walker, despite injuries, is able to make repairs and get the impulse engines patched in record time. Unfortunately, she is exposed to a radiation stream in the impulse manifold and must be transported to the Biohazard Ward for treatment. Walker devises a plan to project a holographic avatar of herself using mobile holo-emitters and a neural link so that she can continue to work while remaining in containment for radiation treatment.


With the ship repaired enough to give chase, the order is given to head for the dangerous nebula. Commander Thoran, Lieutenant Danni James, Ensign ch'Ranni, and Ensign James Colquhoun are tasked with finding a tactical advantage in the coming fight. Commander MacKenna, Solis, Jolara and Lieutenant Duyzer are instructed to learn all they can about the enigmatic Tkon Empire. Is the Columbia headed to another dangerous showdown?

In route to the nebula, Commander Thoran's team devises a plan whereby a probe is modified to send out false sensor signals matching those of the Columbia. Two other probes are altered to use millimeter radar technology and mobile tractor emitters to find and hopefully anchor the Eildyr in place when it attacks. Ensign Colquhoun also suggests the use of positively charged photon torpedoes to generate electrical discharges inside the nebula to fore the Eildyr from its secure spot. Unfortunately, the captain of the Eildyr realizes the sensor signal is false and launches an antimatter torpedo of his own at Columbia, mirroring their tactic of a fake transponder signal. The torpedo detonates near the Columbia but it escapes into the nebula to continue the fight.
