Reynolds, Fortune and Alieth explored the Pelian archaeology site identified as the source of the outbreak. After working their way through some of the buildings, they discovered a secret passage leading underground. Their decision to investigate it became a forced one after coming under attack from what seemed to be Romulans, pushed underground by the collapse of the building. At the base of the stairs, they discovered a room containing three statues/structures, and their investigation led to Reynolds becoming trapped in some kind of force field, nature unknown. | [[Quinn Reynolds|Reynolds]], [[Corliss Fortune|Fortune]]and [[Alieth]] explored the Pelian archaeology site identified as the source of the outbreak.

The team's attempts to free her from the field led to them being knocked unconscious and transported to another location. The facility seems to be uninhabited and running on automated systems, and the team were ferried from their transport site into a decontamination room. From there, they discovered a vast chamber filled with stasis spheres, one of which is occupied by a Pelian woman who has multiple additional organs. Nearby personal belongings suggest it may be the missing Sylan. | The team's attempts to free her from the field led to them being knocked unconscious and transported to another location.

Marshall, Sevo, sh’Qynallahr, Loxley assisted the Pelians and the Romulans in setting up a field hospital to cope with the current and expected victims of the illness. Shortly after they arrived, all kinds of chaos broke out; a Romulan workbee was sabotaged and caused a terrible accident, and shortly thereafter the hospital came under attack by unknown assailants. | [[Jo Marshall]], [[Ayiana Sevo]], [[Piravao sh’Qynallahr]], [[Loxley]]assisted the [[Pelian|Pelians]] and the [[Romulan|Romulans]] in setting up a field hospital to cope with the current and expected victims of the illness.

After fighting off the attack, the team decided to try to lure the data thief/saboteur back in by sending a false transmission to the Gorkon. The plan succeeded and they captured the saboteur, discovering he had an implanted Pelian organ, infected with the disease. They were unable to discover more, as the “Red Lady” burst in and vaporised his unconscious body before collapsing herself. The team finds the Red Lady has been extensively altered through surgery, with the organs and limbs of different species grafted to her. Evidence on her boots led the team to a facility below the hospital, where surgeries have been conducted... | After fighting off the attack, the team decided to try to lure the data thief/saboteur back in by sending a false transmission to the Gorkon.

Neathler, Stoyer, Tahna investigated the murder of Bisul, an important figure in the Pelian’s religious structure. Their first stop was his study, where they determined Bisul had died from cardiac arrhythmia brought on by hyperkalemia, a known physiological weakness of Pelians. Investigating his library led to a brush with a force field, and the discovery of a note and an access token, as well as access to a hidden cave garden beneath the residence. Inside, they found more secrets; a scroll locked in a case submerged in the pond. As they left the cavern, they ran into the tail end of an assault on Lynas, losing his attacker courtesy of a flashbang and a rapid retreat. After waking, Lynas revealed a secret he had been keeping; his wife Sylan was having an affair with Bisul... and now she’s missing. | [[Samira Neathler]], [[Cory Stoyer]], [[Tahna Meru]]investigated the murder of Bisul, an important figure in the Pelian’s religious structure.

Returning to the FedSec HQ, the team carried out research and discovered the murder “weapon”, a poison derived from a local mushroom the Pelians had tried to eradicate from the planet. The leads pointed them toward several meeting places of Sylan and Bisul—but while en route, the team’s public transport suffered a bombing attack. After being joined by Lephi and gathering their wits, the team headed toward a favourite restaurant of the adulterous couple. There was no sign of Sylan there, and the team contacted Lynas who asked them to meet him in a house on Sallu’um Street. Their journey briefly interrupted by threatening figures, they arrived at their location to discover an unconscious and bound Lynas—and shortly thereafter, two more people, one of whom seems to be Bisul... | Returning to the [[Federation Security|FedSec HQ]], the team carried out research and discovered the murder “weapon”, a poison derived from a local mushroom the Pelians had tried to eradicate from the planet.

[[Jona ch'Ranni]], [[Serren Tan]] and [[Mallora Vossti]] descended below the surface to search for a group of missing Starfleet cadets. After encountering some radiation readings and potential evidence of the cadet’s passage, they got into a spot of bother. First, they narrowly avoided being crushed in a rockfall, then they were attacked by unknown assailants and forced to retreat by diving through a body of water. Their route took them into the same city as the lost cadets, and the trio began to explore the first building they encountered. | |||
Inside, they discovered an inactive computer terminal, and a PADD which activated a holographic projection inside and summoned drones to circle the building outside. The projection turned aggressive and attacked, and while Tan and ch’Ranni tried to fend it off, Vossti deduced the meaning of the symbols on the PADD to pacify it. The team decided to capture one of the drones, using a modified phaser to fire and deactivate it. It was then they were contacted by the cadets, who had seen their drone-napping operation, and using the modified phaser to create an explosive diversion, the team welcomed them into the building. After freeing Tan, who had become trapped by the wall, Ico used her implanted knowledge to create a distraction and the Starfleet officers raced back toward the same way they came in. | Inside, they discovered an inactive computer terminal, and a PADD which activated a holographic projection inside and summoned drones to circle the building outside.
