The Ronin sat in a squadron with the Independence and the Ursa Major, stranded near the Galactic Barrier by an unexpected wormhole. The USS Phoenix, staffed by the COs and some officers of all three ships, attempted to reopen the wormhole to allow the ships to return to Wheeler Colony. However, a fleet of small ships put the small Federation fleet in their sights. The Akira-class ship took a defensive position while the other two deal with problems of their own. After being sent back to Wheeler by an energy being, the three ships reunited with their commanding officers.

The Ronin spent much of its leave time trying to shore up repairs so that it could make the journey back to DS17 to use the station's now-extensive shipyard facilities. A decision by the command staff to not bypass a nebula on the way back to the station turned disastrous, as the nebula overloaded key systems and forced an evacuation of the crew to a nearby Class-L planet, with little hope of getting a good distress signal out through the interference.

The Ronin, its systems crippled due to a cascade failure brought on by nebular radiation, managed to evacuate most of its crew to a nearby Class-L desert world (later dubbed Rakis). Scattered across the surface, however, the crew found themselves struggling to survive against the harsh climate and an indigenous predatory lifeform, able to ’swim’ through the sands by using soundwaves to change the consistency of the soil in front of it. These creatures, called ’sand worms,’ ’sand sharks,’ or ‘land sharks’ by the crew, took several of the Ronin’s crew before a way to combat them effectively was found, combining a sound disruption device, effectively preventing the use of sound to ’swim’ through the sand, and a large water cannon, re-hydrating the sharks’ rough and dehydrated outer skin and effectively tearing it apart.

On the Ronin herself, a number of crew members were stranded by the failing power systems. This was a blessing in disguise, however, as a Ferengi scout ship arrived soon after the ship was evacuated to ’salvage’ the stricken Federation vessel. After a brief fire-fight, the remaining crew managed to barter help from the DaiMon, Nekil, allowing them to alert the Federation to the Ronin’s whereabouts.

The Ronin is currently under tow, thanks to the USS Wellington, heading for DS17. There, her power systems will be shored up and she will be transported on to Utopia Planitia, Mars, for more extensive repairs.

The Ronin was towed to Deep Space 17, the main Federation outpost in the Ithassa region. At the small shipyards there, the ship's power systems were shored up in a whirlwind of damage control crews and industrial replicators. Docking to the USS Gridley, a fleet tug bound for Earth, with some of the damage control teams still aboard, the Akira-class battle-carrier left her Marine compliment and her fighter wing behind and made her way to the sprawling confines of the Utopia Planitia shipyards in orbit around Mars.

Aboard the ship, the month-long journey was passed by the crew mostly in introspection over the losses of lives on the previous two missions. A production of Shakespeare's Scottish Play was practiced and presented. A group therapy session was organized and lead by the ship's counselor. Progress was made with the crew, but the impact of the losses will be felt for a long time to come.

Soon after the ship arrived at Mars, the crew was treated to a special celebration: the long-awaited wedding of Idril Mar and Danny Wilde. The reception, a massive production hosted by the groom's parents, will be following shortly.

After the long anticipated wedding of Capt. Idril Mar and LtCmdr Danny Wilde, the crew of the USS Ronin were treated to a party whilst on leave at the Wilde Estate. The newlyweds departed for a brief trip to Whitby, England before officially going on honeymoon, but after their first night the Ronin's crew were called to Whitby to help search for Capt. Mar, who had since disappeared under mysterious circumstances.

The news of the missing captain increased the crews’ resolve to find her, and as the investigation went underway, it was soon established by the crew that LtCmdr Wilde was not acting his usual self and was in various ways actually hindering the investigation. The culprit was in fact Wilde’s alternate double from a Parallel Universe encountered on DS17 in the Ithassa Region the previous year, who had switched places with his alternate self and kidnapped the Captain and LtCmdr Wilde.
