Elya transfered to the Aurora, which was in need of a Chief Engineer after a major refit. Under the command of [[Vetri, Della|Commander Della Vetri]], the ship departed to explore subspace anomalies in the neutral zone related to the Hobus supernova. The Aurora was absorbed by a transient wormhole and dumped on the far side of the Romulan Empire. The passage through the wormhole proved traumatic to Elya, whose fielding sense was overwhelmed by the intense energy field. After recovering, she accompanied an away team to explore an abandoned Romulan ship. The ship proved to be home to a crew of Romulans that had been dragged through the wormhole two hundred years ago, and forced to survive on their own. Elya assisted with a number of repairs aboard their ship, while covertly transferring the Romulan logs back to the Aurora in hopes of finding a clue to returning home. | |||
[[image:TaliEngineering.jpg|thumb|Elya in Main Engineering]] | |||
Fighting broke out on the Romulan ship between factions that wished to remain on this side of the wormhole, and those who wanted to return to the Romulan Empire. A crystal formation was discovered attached to the Romulan's ship which was sent toward the Aurora and began feeding on the Aurora's warp core energy. Elya stepped her team through shutting down the warp core in order to get coax the creature back into space where it could be caught in the deflector beam. The away team found themselves caught in the middle of fighting aboard the Romulan ship, until a deal was made aboard the Aurora between the two sides. The Romulan vessel would remain in place for those who wished to stay, which the Aurora would take the remaining Romulans back with them. | |||
Upon her return, Elya investigated probe sensor logs which showed artificial ring structures inside the wormhole, seemingly designed to stabilize the anomaly. Guessing a connection between the structures and the crystal species, an investigation began into whether it could be used to safely traverse the wormhole conduit back to Federation space. After successful tests, the Aurora navigated safely through the wormhole with the cargobay full of Romulan refugees, and docked at Starbase 23 for repairs. After quick repairs, she received her promotion to Lieutenant. | |||
The Aurora departed to survey a section of space near the Azure nebula, but encountered an Orion vessel along the way illegally transporting slaves as well as members of the [[Scarlet Brotherhood]]. The Orions escaped onto the Aurora using new transporter technology and filled the ship with Orion/Deltan pheromones, but the crew prevailed after Elya and a science officer disbursed an anti-pheromone solution into the environmental control system. After the Orions escaped, a series of a sabotage attempts were discovered aboard the Aurora, including a bomb connected to the anti-matter containment system that had to be defused. | |||
{{ | A team from the Aurora was sent in disguise to [[Farius Prime]], the original destination of the Orion vessel, to infiltrate and collect information on the Brotherhood's plans. After entering the hidden Brotherhood compound, Elya befriended an Orion slave girl named Jalen. After some unexpected physical intimacy, Jalen helped the Aurora's team get access to a secret room inside the compound. During their escape, Jalen was trapped inside the compound after an explosion and was reportedly killed, but in fact escaped from the Brotherhood and eventually to freedom unbeknownst to Elya. | ||

In 2388 the Aurora crew transferred to the [[USS Avandar]], a new Luna class ship, during which Elya received the ''Explorer's Ribbon'' and ''Bajoran Campaign Ribbon''. The ship's first mission encountered a strange phenomenon which left the crew briefly unconscious, but in a shared dream-state where time passed much more quickly. In the dream, the Avandar crash-landed on the planet below and years passed as the crew was forced to adapt to the new planet, defend the surviving crew against natives, and cope with an attempted mutiny against the Captain. | |||
The shock of being thrown back into 2388 after what felt like years in the shared-dream was difficult for the crew. Elya found it especially difficult to forgive the actions some fellow crew-mates had taken inside the dreams, and applied for transfer soon after. | |||
== USS Apollo == | |||
2389, Elya transferred along with Cmdr. Barnes from the Avandar to the Apollo, finding herself once again under the command of [[Jaxx, Andrus|Captain Andrus Jaxx]]. En-route to investigate the disappearance of three Starfleet ships, the Apollo discovered a freighter carrying a dormant Borg scout ship. Confiscating the cargo from the freighter, Elya designed a forcefield system using the Apollo's new anti-borg technology, and brought the ship aboard safely. | |||
