After Hamlet of Dane's death attempts are made on the lives of Lt. Commander Aquiss and Captain Arvanon
After Hamlet of Dane's death attempts are made on the lives of Lt. Commander Aquiss and Captain Arvanon.  One lead is in the sentient computer cube Aurora, but the crew have trouble deciphering the information held within. At Hamlet of Dane's funeral it comes out that he has a wife by the name of Lady Ophelia, a fact which makes his girlfriend extremely distraught.  Shortly afterwards the USS Xanth is hijacked and is retaken by actions from Lt. Commander Aquiss.  Unfortunately Ensign Barry White was blown to smithereens by a bomb before anyone could save him.
 
Hamlet's plot thickens as Lt. Tekra finds that Lady Ophelia intends to auction off all of his experimental technology to the highest bidder.  His logs also showed that he had been dodging assassins for over two years.  Ophelia contacts a group of people who are suspected of crimes by Starfleet intel - but no one can prove anything - all of them fabulously rich and to be bidders on the technology.
 
Things get worse when poisonous lizards are released onto StarBase 118.  They kill two people and cannot be stopped by force fields.  The chaos deepens as they start heading for the command center.  Engineers find a nest of lizards and find they are resistant to phaser fire, so medical works overtime on finding an antidote to the poisonous bite.

Captain's Log, Stardate 237507.31'''
I wish I could say that things have been normal, but that is not the case.
Aquiss has been forced to disable the Xanth. An annoying action, but one
that was necessary. At least we know the starbase's shields can repel
quantum torpedos, but that is a small consolation.
Hamlet's funeral wasn't even normal. I have to admit that the more I find
out about that man and the people that know him, the more confused I become.
The crew seems to be adjusting to a reality without Hamlet, but it is hard.
Even though he kept to himself, he really did involve himself with the
crew, but in ways I am only beginning to understand. Kal'tora seems to be
the hardest hit, but not anymore, for reasons which I will not detail here.
There hasn't been much from the Admiral lately, but several messages from
Elinor indicate that the changes I had envisioned for Starbase 118 and the
Xanth are becoming a reality, slowly but surely. But, I can't even worry
about that now....::
