This is the [[Galdan Sector|GALDAN SECTOR]]. It is positioned at 0368, in the middle of the CARINA stellar arm of the galaxy. It lies on the 'northern' border of Cardassian space. At Warp 9.95+, it is six weeks from Earth. It is Federation territory, but only nominally so, especially since the fleet depletion of the Dominion War. It is lightly patrolled, when it is patrolled at all. | This is the [[Galdan Sector|GALDAN SECTOR]]. It is positioned at 0368, in the middle of the CARINA stellar arm of the galaxy.

It is a main sequence G star, KALVAR GATE. It was so named because it stands at the start of a rather busy stretch of space that runs outward to unexplored space. The system has eleven planets, an unprecedented three of which are habitable; KG-3 is a class M, KG-4 is class O and KG-5 is class L with M potential. There are three Terraforming colonies currently being settled on it. KG-3, 4 and 5 each have several human colonies on them, and KG-3 is building STARBASE MAGELLAN right now; it is half completed. Unfortunately, the KALVAR GATE system has now also been claimed by a race with whom first contact was established by the Federation ten years ago, the [[Ehrud]]. The Ehrud did not claim KALVAR GATE until recently, first allowing the Federation to settle it and survey it. It appears that they now do so for obvious reasons; KG-2 (class A) and KG-6 (class P) are both rich in dilithium-2 and dilithium-3 and in the metals that tend to run with them; gold, platinum, and latinum. | ||

SOVEREIGN will take a negotiating team with them as well. My orders are clear; once we get to our co-ordinates, we've been given, we wait. In order to get to these co-ordinates, we are to use stealth mode, and maintain signal silence. We are to be there, but we are not to let anyone know we are there. Hence the reason for the ship wide external communication blackout, the stealth mode, and the modified use of sensors. | ||

Our orders are to reach these co-ordinates undetected and patrol the area, maintaining stealth mode. Clearly it is to provide some security for the USS SOVEREIGN's diplomatic mission. What we've not been told is what to expect, and what I'm to do if the expected or unexpected happens. | Our orders are to reach these co-ordinates undetected and patrol the area, maintaining stealth mode.
