After the shoreleave, the ''Artemis'' headed to the [[Paulson Nebula]]. Commander MacKenzie informed the senior staff that in order to familiarize themselves with the ship they would conduct a tactical drill within the Nebula. The ''Artemis'' would engage in simulated space battle against {{USS|Berlin}}, a [[Reliant class]] cruiser on loan from [[Deep Space 224]]. Jovenan was assigned to remain on the ''Artemis'' and man the science station, while half of the senior staff took control of the ''Berlin''.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-artemis/c/jHpwhEUtT4E Drilling through the Nebula], LtJG Jovenan, {{USS|Artemis|A}}, 240005.27</ref> After a series of questions and tactical discussion, the crew took their stations and the ships entered the Nebula.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-artemis/c/n_LrS7DmT8k Yellow is mellow, red is dead], LtJG Jovenan, {{USS|Artemis|A}}, 240006.03</ref> | After the shoreleave, the ''Artemis'' headed to the [[Paulson Nebula]].

Due to the nebula's inhibiting properties, environmental hazards there and their desire to be unseen by the ''Berlin'', Jovenan had to balance sensor usage carefully and keep an eye tightly on the readings.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-artemis/c/TpvjFyzhqpY In a haystack], LtJG Jovenan, {{USS|Artemis|A}}, 240006.05</ref> Eventually, she discovered the ''Berlin'' in the nebula. In order to avoid being detected for as long as possible, they opted to send out a set of probes to verify ''Berlin'''s location.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-artemis/c/43xQ9b9697Q Please have your boarding passes ready for the flight to Berlin], LtJG Jovenan, {{USS|Artemis|A}}, 240006.08</ref> However, the attack against the ''Berlin'' was a partial failure, and the ''Artemis'' lost its primary sensors. This crippled the ''Artemis'' in the dangerous surroundings.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-artemis/c/G-OT6_FTpE8 You take fries with those fried sensors?], LtJG Jovenan, {{USS|Artemis|A}}, 240006.10</ref> | |||
They took some distance from the ''Berlin'' and prepared for a new attack. Jovenan deviced a plan, based on a graviton pulse, that could hide them right after their attack in order to avoid ''Berlin'''s counterattack.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-artemis/c/mSdBaSDHFwQ Playing with plasma because fire isn’t hot enough], LtJG Jovenan, {{USS|Artemis|A}}, 240006.17</ref> However, their decision to fire the plasma pockets released more ignited plasma than intended and was dangerous for ''Artemis'' as well, and the graviton pulse only managed to protect them from the plasma without covering them from the ''Berlin''.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-artemis/c/a5mk4Ca9lWM Eye of a fire storm], LtJG Jovenan, {{USS|Artemis|A}}, 240006.20</ref> | |||
