Things settled down quite quickly, however, and the Avandar's new Chief Science Officer, LtCmdr Sorani, was welcomed aboard, though with perhaps a little less enthusiasm from some quarters as might have been preferred. The crew have something new to focus on now, however, with the discovery of a previously unknown form of apparently space-dwelling life. Eager to get to grips with this new discovery, the Avandar's officers have begun trying to piece together just why these creatures seem so interested in an apparently utterly mundane comet in deep space... | Things settled down quite quickly, however, and the Avandar's new Chief Science Officer, LtCmdr Sorani, was welcomed aboard, though with perhaps a little less enthusiasm from some quarters as might have been preferred.

The creatures were not the only puzzle, however. The comet itself gave off some interesting readings, suggesting something beneath the surface, something that strongly resembled a masked chamber of some kind. Despite the potential hazards of going walkabout on the surface of a comet, the selected away team was eager to get going – an eagerness that lasted right up until they encountered an entity of some kind on the comet and things took a turn for the the strange. | |||
With the away team completely off sensors and experiencing some very vivid hallucinations apparently caused by the entity, the Avandar's crew had to deal with a gas sample from the comet’s corona totally ignoring containment methods after being beamed aboard for study. Finally, the entire area of the ship had to be vented into space, but with a little creativity the crew managed to locate the Away Team was found once more and return them to the ship – though not totally unscathed by their experiences with the entity they encountered inside the comet. | |||
Even with some relatively minor injuries to deal with, there was a great deal of interest in digging deeper - unfortunately, there was no chance to study what it’s custodian considered an archive of experiences from a number of species as urgent orders came through from Starfleet Command for the Avandar to return to Federation space. A far bigger problem was beginning to rear it's head... | |||
