== Chapter 5 == | |||
With the Columbia crew stranded on the planet Ambrosia and with several under the control of an Ethereal force, the situation has looked grim to return to the ship. Fortunately for the crew, Lieutenant Commander Anderson's series of exo-comps have been successful in repairing the ship to a point where they have entered into orbit around Ambrosia. Despite an attempt by a group of Ferengi on board to take the ship, the exo-comps indentured the Ferengis as engineers and ultimately thwarted a further Ferengi attempt to loot the ship. | |||
On the surface, the crew was successful in negotiating with the Ethereals. Captain Avatar used a series of lucid dreams in order to place the Columbia crew in a better position to bargain. Commander Moranta was successful in learning of two separate groups of Ethereals with conflicting plans. One group was insistent on continuing an experiment at all costs to return the Ethereal to a solid form while the other would rather discontinue further experiments to prevent any further harm to other lifeforms. A compromise was reached where the Ethereals would create a symbiotic relationship with the primitive Ambrosian natives on the planet. One of the native girls would be brought back to Trill in order to learn how to deal with a two part mind. | |||
With the Columbia in orbit of Ambrosia, the survivors of Columbia were beamed aboard to find the ship badly damaged, but functional. Unfortunately upon arrival on the ship, the crew quickly learned that they were deep inside Romulan space and that the only way out would be through a dangerous area of unguarded space known as the Bogon Beltway. This area of space connects to areas of Federation space that are not separated from Romulan space by a Neutral Zone, but passage is treacherous considering the large number of scavengers and other troublemakers. | |||
Meanwhile, Lieutenant Barlow has embarked on his own mission with a handful of Columbia personnel who did not participate in the initial experiment. Barlow's mission was to use an alien freighter that could traverse into Romulan space without a problem. Once inside, they located the Columbia and are now in pursuit waiting for the right time to lend a helping hand. | |||
