Iljor began to work on a defence against CloQ in the immediate aftermath of their latest visit, collaborating with [[Addison MacKenzie]] and [[Hallia Yellir]]. A short time later, he was awoken in the middle of the night by [[Karrod Niac]] who announced that Iljor's first examination as part of the Command Training Program had begun. He was tasked with escorting a specialist- Niac- to the bridge using only the ship's crawlspaces and tube. The caveat was that they had to go via engineering to pick up a critical piece of equipment. A short while into the examination, an 'explosion' rocked the Excalibur, forcing Iljor to take a detour to investigate. It transpired that a photon grenade had exploded during routine maintenance, trapping two crewmen behind isolation fields and endangering their lives. Iljor came up with a solution and was determined to help despite Niac's protestations that it might cost him marks in his examination. Despite this, Iljor was unmoved and was determined to render aid. Once the examination had finished, Iljor realised that the true test was how he faced making command decisions in a situation where there was no right answer. Commander Niac then revealed he had passed with flying colours- although both of them were subsequently were ordered to appear in front of Commander MacKenzie, who had not been briefed on the examination thanks to a clerical error on the part of Commander Niac. MacKenzie allowed the result of the examination but put the 'fear of the Prophets' into Iljor, who already found her incredibly intimidating. | Iljor began to work on a defence against CloQ in the immediate aftermath of their latest visit, collaborating with [[Addison MacKenzie]] and [[Hallia Yellir]].

Some time after the examination, Iljor visited Sil to check on him after their encounter with CloQ. During their dinner, Iljor began to realise that he was feeling burned out and while he was reluctant to do so, he made an appointment the infamous Doctor [[Gott]]. Around this time, Iljor also met [[Maz Roman]] and [[Quentin Collins]] whose starship, the {{USS|Arrow}} was visiting [[Deep Space 224]] after an unintended trip outside the galaxy. | |||

* It is hinted on multiple occasions that Iljor has something of a weak stomach. The thought of Demesian tea (reputed to smell like feet) made him nauseou as did having to wade through sewage. Additionally the smell of whiskey had made him wretch on more than one occasion. | * It is hinted on multiple occasions that Iljor has something of a weak stomach.
