Concerned they may be followed by Tholians, Blake has ''Veritas'' land on [[Kidman I]] under the guise of sharing supplies to avoid leading enemy scouts further into the Shoals —asking Captain [[Roshanara Rahman]] and LtCmdr [[Wil Ukinix]] to return to the ship while there. The crew use the time to make repairs and enjoy shore leave in [[Bupirninyirring]]. She admits to [[Rairen Caide]] that she believes [[Kehive na-Soldim]] was the lynch-pin event that caused [[Jhalib Ekal]]'s version of the future, citing doubt that the [[Temporal Integrity Commission]] went looking for na-Soldim at all in the timeline. Because of this, she assumes (in Ekal's timeline) that na-Soldim made it to the heart of the [[Tholian Assembly]] and was integral to the Tholian invasion effort of the Shoals. She also admits that Parker is right in his assessment of the Colonial Coalition Marshals being ill-prepared for a conflict against the Tholians, so remains convinced that such conflict is indeed as inevitable as Ekal made it out to be. The discussion gradually turns to her position on ''Veritas'': she informs Caide that the ship's tour of duty concludes "soon", and that whether it remains in the Shoals is up to Admiral [[Joseph Washington]]. Blake asks Caide if he is open to keeping her with him in the Shoals, and though he believes the discussion to be pre-mature, he states he would be glad to. | Concerned they may be followed by Tholians, Blake has ''Veritas'' land on [[Kidman I]] under the guise of sharing supplies to avoid leading enemy scouts further into the Shoals —asking Captain [[Roshanara Rahman]] and LtCmdr [[Wil Ukinix]] to return to the ship while there.

For her efforts in commanding ''Veritas'' on the Tholian border, Rahman promotes Blake to Commander. Daunted by the prospect of potentially being next in line to command ''Veritas'' officially (exemplified by [[Sky Blake (alternate)|the alternate Blake]]), she admits to Rahman that she doesn't actually enjoy being aboard Federation vessels because of their impact on her physical health. Contrary to this, however, her time in Starfleet has been important for her mental health. They conclude their conversation with the understanding that when ''Veritas''' tour of duty ends, Blake will return to working alone with the [[Starfleet Rangers]]. | |||
While on their way to [[Donova IV]], the crew stumble upon a distress beacon transmitting from a runaway asteroid. She leads an away team consisting of Ensigns [[Kionn Rao]] and [[Emi]], Lieutenants [[Zhanyt Lafizatar]] and Lieutenant Commander [[Wil Ukinix]]. The asteroid's atmosphere includes moderate concentrations of flourine, which quickly begins to affect Blake's eyesight. | |||
