===Act 1===
{{Log
Shortly after the USS Veritas arrives at Antor II, a bomb was detonated on the busy Grand Boulevard city center in New Macau, with casualties feared to be in the thousands. The capital world of the Colonial Coalition had been damaged by groundquakes not long before, and the impact of the attack was severe. With the planet’s atmosphere too thin to support life for longer than a few days, the destruction of the atmospheric domes protecting surface settlements would place the colony’s future in jeopardy. Starfleet has routed the starship Veritas there to provide aid to the damaged colony.

|LOG=We will be arriving at Antor II tomorrow where the crew will be able to enjoy the rest of their shore leave. However, I felt it was important to honor their efforts in this past mission aboard Veritas. As such, I've called for a general assembly of crew and officers in the ship's auditorium.

Veritas found her resources stretched to the limit. Coordinated by Captain Roshanara Rahman, the Starfleet cruiser dispatched her specialized search and rescue (SAR) teams led by Commander Kelrod to the surface, where the starship and her colony counterparts transported as many of the injured to Veritas’ sickbay as possible under the care of chief medical officer Dr. Nikki Ryan.

On the surface, a science team lead by Veritas first officer Lieutenant Commander Mei’konda succeeded in closing a small subspace tear that had apparently formed after the detonation of a modified tricobalt explosive, further evidence that the damage to the colony was intentional.

|LOG=Antor II is a mess. Tragic earthquakes caused by subspace rifts have rocked the planet, leaving a portion of the planet's domes uninhabitable. This has resulted in overcrowding and has led to violence on the planet's surface. Two bombings have taken the lives of many and has left many more in serious condition. Teams are still searching through the rubble for survivors. I've been assigned to work with Commander Blair and Lieutenant Commander Walker, our task: to rebuild the domes that housed the planet's population. We've come to the conclusion that once temporary housing has been established, it would be more efficient to come up with a design that would better withstand any future natural disasters.  
}}


Meanwhile, engineering teams under Lieutenant Commander Luna Walker worked to find solutions to the potentially progressive damage caused by the explosions. Considering that radiation is still a concern for people on the surface, the Starfleet engineers have been working to find temporary shelter for colonists in underground mines, which will better protect them.

|LOG=We were getting things set up in the mines when Commander Walker sent Commander Blair and I out to retrieve the antimatter from Commander Kelrod's team. Unfortunately, a cave-in occurred and effectively trapped both Lieutenant Thoran and Commander Walker behind a wall of rock. We have no idea of their status since something in the composition of the rock is blocking communicators. Working with Commander Kelrod's team, we've devised a plan to beam the rocks away a little at at time while establishing support beams along the way to prevent further cave-ins. In an attempt to establish some sort of communication, I've jury-rigged my communicator to send a morse code message on repeat using the chirps from the commbadge itself: S-T-A-N-D pause B-A-C-K. I had hoped that one of our missing colleagues would be able to use their communicator to respond in kind, but so far we haven't heard anything. With their already poor air supply decreasing, I'm afraid that if we don't act soon, we'll be recovering corpses instead.

However, a cave in occured at the mines, and Walker along with another engineer were trapped and injured before being successfully rescued by the SAR team. Ensign Sepek discovered that the tricobalt used in the explosion was Starfleet in origin, though whether stolen or salvaged is yet unknown. The crew was subsequently reunited for a staff briefing.

|LOG=Though a few fires remain in the city and rescue crews continue to sweep the area for any other survivors, the initial response to the attack on New Macau has mostly finished. The city's medical facilities are overrun with the injured and dying, and Veritas' own medical department is doing what it can to help with some of the severe cases.


===Act 2===
Shortly ago, our [[Sepek|science officer]] made a disturbing discovery on the origins of the tricobalt device, and I've assembled the senior staff along with Governor Blackhurst's over remote coms to go over the findings and its implications.
Captain Rahman has ordered one team consisting of Commander Mei’konda, Commander Kelrod, Lieutenant Tuk, Ensign Fullus, and Commander Blair to return to the mines to look for any remaining evidence left at the site. Meanwhile, Lieutenant Delano, Commanders Walker, Lieutenant Rosek, and Ensign Sepek are remaining on board to investigate the signal of a transmission sent from a way station in the Shadows to see if Jilor's location can be pinpointed. Drs. Ryan and Skyfire remain in Sickbay tending to the injured and assisting the colony's recovery efforts.

The medical staff has been working exhaustively in cooperation with Antor II’s Department of Emergency Services. While unlikely that we will find many more survivors, we haven’t given up. We will continue our efforts until the Captain and the Antor II government decide otherwise.


===Act 3===
Unfortunately, during our efforts to help several of our officers were injured in the process. The more serious injuries include Lt. Commander Raissa Moonsong and Lt. Commander Luna Walker, both who sustained head injuries and will remain under observation for the next 24 hours, and Lt. Ki Shandres who remains in serious but stable condition.

|LOG= Welcome back to the Invicta. Okay, Veritas, but most of the faces are familiar. It's more or less the same crew, just on a different ship. I've changed, they've undoubtedly changed, and my first few days back Murphy decides to pick on me again. [[Luna Walker|One person]] on this ship will likely not be happy to see me due to [[Skyfire Cure|past shenanigans]] on the ''Excalibur''.  
 
Still need to check in with [[Mei'konda]], still need to get my room assignment sorted, still need to set up an appointment with Ris, still need to pay a social call to a few people.
 
Oh, and Murphy: shove off.

|LOG=As Governor Blackhurst was preparing to give her speech, the ''Veritas'' was attacked by Romulan and Cardassian ships. While this attack was underway, individuals who had been able to successfully bring aboard otherwise innocuous items constructed weapons. The facts of the situation indicate they were planning the onboard attack as both an attempt to rid the region of Starfleet interference, which they believed to be a threat to the stability of their world. Further evidence points to an attempt Governor Blackhurst's life because she supported Starfleet officers aiding the planet in it's distress. We were unable to apprehend the individual who claimed responsibility for the attacks on Antor II. He remains elusive and at large in the region. Only time will tell if we will eventually be able to track him down and put a stop to his acts of mass murder and terrorism.

|LOG=It’s been two days since we first arrived at Antor II, and though the fires have been put out, the recovery and response efforts to the disaster are far from over.
 
After the attack on her chief of staff, Governor Blackhurst has requested the use of Veritas as a more secure stage for a major speech outlining the Antor government’s plan moving forward as it relates to both rebuilding and the threat of Jilor and the Kos’karii.
 
However, mere hours before the governor’s scheduled speech, I was informed that another attack could be imminent, this time on Veritas itself. Fortunately, we seemed to have caught a lucky break.}}

|LOG=While we may not have Jilor, we do have a number of his men. A small squadron of Colonial Coalition Marshal cutters have joined us to supplement Antor II’s defenses and confiscate the captured Kos’karii vessels. The pirates being treated in sickbay have been arrested and are likewise being transferred to the Marshals. While in the wake of such death and destruction, it may not seem like much, I can’t help but feel we have made significant steps towards capturing the pirate king himself and bringing him to justice.
 
Following the unexpected interruption, Governor Blackhurst was able to go on with her speech to Antor and the rest of the Colonial Coalition from Veritas. I’m not a political analyst, but it seemed the press and others in attendance were pleased with what she had to say.
 
For now, we remain in orbit of Antor, continuing to offer our assistance to its people and the governor’s staff. I have asked the Governor to join me before she returns to the surface.}}
