During his year on Starbase 74, as an expert in Galaxy class systems, Mei'konda was assigned as the supervisor of an extensive refit on a Galaxy class starship, the {{USS|Astraeus}}. The project, fraught with problems, was nearly complete when Mei'konda received word of an opening on board the {{USS|Veritas}}. His break from exploration duty had been fruitful, and he'd had a good opportunity to spend time with his parents. As the Veritas had been operating in the sector of space where he'd heard that Evan had been, he decided that it was time to head back out into deep space. | During his year on Starbase 74, as an expert in Galaxy class systems, Mei'konda was assigned as the supervisor of an extensive refit on a Galaxy class starship, the {{USS|Astraeus}}.

Over the next year, Mei'konda served as Captain Rahman's operations officer, and eventually, her first officer, when Lieutenant Commander {{n|Sky|Blake}} transferred to the Starfleet Rangers. In this role, Mei'konda felt a sense of home that he hadn't in a long time, and flourished in the role. Mei'konda was in command of the Veritas regularly while Captain Rahman was off the ship, during an extended time as acting Captain, led the Veritas in an action that saw the Astraeus, whose commanding officer had brought her into the Shoals and gotten her stuck there, protected from a vicious pirate attack. It was after this mission that Mei'konda married his fiance, and was promoted to full Commander. | Over the next year, Mei'konda served as Captain Rahman's operations officer, and eventually, her first officer, when Lieutenant Commander {{n|Sky|Blake}} transferred to the Starfleet Rangers.

Over the next several months, Mei'konda and the Veritas took part in a number of missions, involving colony resupply, defense, science, and first contact. Late in 2395, Mei'konda was offered the [[USS Montreal]]. He accepted, despite that it would mean a separation from his husband. Over the next several months, he commanded the Montreal in the Shoals as a threat from the Tholians loomed, with ship and crew taking part in diplomatic, medical, and scouting missions. | Over the next several months, Mei'konda and the Veritas took part in a number of missions, involving colony resupply, defense, science, and first contact.

Over the next few months, the Montreal and her crew did their best to keep Federation interests safe in the Shoals, until the Vulcan terrorist, [[Lenik]], staged an attack on the [[Karakka]] system. Mei'konda had no choice but to sacrifice the Montreal in order to protect lives on the colony. There were relatively few casualties on the Montreal, and for their efforts, Mei'konda was promoted to Captain, and he and his senior staff from the Montreal were assigned to the [[USS Astraeus]], a Galaxy class starship about to embark on a long range exploration mission. | Over the next few months, the Montreal and her crew did their best to keep Federation interests safe in the Shoals, until the Vulcan terrorist, [[Lenik]], staged an attack on the [[Karakka]] system.

Here, the Astraeus made first contact with several new species and made several new scientific discoveries. Present in the region until late 2397, a sudden attack by one of those species that caused extensive damage to the ship and fourteen deaths among her crew forced her to return to Federation space. | ||
With the Astraeus inactivated for repairs, Mei'konda was approached by Admiral [[Luke Reider]]. Rather than heading off to shore leave as he'd originally intended, Mei'konda was assigned command of the Akira class [[USS Chin'toka]], a brand new Akira class starship whose first Captain died suddenly and under mysterious circumstances just prior to taking command. | |||
