As peace negotiations between the three chief Citadel races get underway down on Citadel Prime, a Starfleet diplomatic party (made up of Archimedes' and Nagasaki' crewmembers alike) arrive in the magnificent Tower to oversee Federation interests. As they calmly take their seats to witness this historical occasion, a commotion rumbles in the crowd before them...
"A shot from the balcony above rang out, hitting its mark -- Commander Arkham. Gritting her teeth in pain and clutching her left side, she forced herself to the floor as panic ensued, pulling down Carter as well -- there was no need for the young Ensign to get killed on this fool's errand."
With the talks in tatters, and officers wounded, each interested faction retreats back to their own corner to reassess and recuperate. However, the state of affairs causes all manner of sorts to come out of the woodwork. But, behind the facade of friendly faces lies a smattering of hostile intentions; each one aligned to their own cause to bring about their own rendering of the "greater good" for the Alpha Quadrant. |
