I do believe it is Independence Day for my Northern living crew. I hope the day was filled with family and friends.

I also happens to be the 24th anniversary of this fleet forming. Yes we've been around THAT long, there are a handful of us who have been around since those early days.

Leaving thoughts of middle age and decrepitness aside, please see the below anniversary link..there's some cool stuff going on there :)

The tower lay a crumbling ruin before them - joint pieces of stone buried and scattered still waiting to be unearthed. Rhenora couldn't wrap her head around the fact that they were somehow going to rebuild the crumbling city, much less turn it into the glowing jewel of Bajor.

"I'm sorry - I don't get how WE...the 'four' as you call us, are gonna do this" She admitted.

The Architect looked from Rhenora to the ruins and back again, apparently considering the question far more seriously than either of them expected. "How?" he asked, almost as though he were genuinely…

Approximately 12 Months Ago

The forest was still; the stars were now visible now the storm had cleared. Faro moved quietly, making her way to the compound she and Brin had built before the Reckoning. She was physically wounded, as was the being within her. They both needed time to heal, to regroup, and consider their next move. Her eyes flashed dull red as the being writhed in pain, slowly recovering its strength but feeling everything in the moment. Faro lay on the thin mattress, curled upon herself, and waited for it to pass.

For the first few days, Faro…

The crimson light descended. Patin and Marie followed.

Below them, the mountains of Bajor's Kendra Province rose from the darkness like ancient teeth, their peaks catching the faint light of the strange red presence as it descended toward the Fire Caves. The closer they came, the brighter the crimson aura became, until the mountains themselves seemed to glow from within.

The Wraith did not slow; instead it passed through the upper atmosphere without resistance, plunging toward the mountains with the certainty of something returning to a place it had known long before either woman had existed.

Patin watched in silence for…

A silence descended around the tent as the self proclaimed Architect decided how he was going to answer the question. It was a fair one, they had been summoned, and wanted to understand why, and to what end.

"You are the key to the future - The Four, and The Two. Together you shall keep the Wraith from bringing forth another Red Sun and destroying Bajor forever" He said as though explaining the plot line of a holo movie.

Remal looked toward Rhenora, uncertainty evident in his eyes as he considered the Architect's words. The key to the future. The…

Remal woke before the station had fully settled into its morning rhythm. For a moment he remained still, listening to the quiet breathing of his family. Rhenora was asleep beside him, and beyond the adjoining door Patina remained blissfully unaware that the day had already begun. He slipped carefully from the bed, taking a moment to make sure he didn't disturb either of them before pulling on his clothes.

As always, the first order of business was coffee. He moved quietly through the temporary quarters, preparing a small pot, allowing the aroma to slowly fill the room. Once that was…

Personal log, Lieutenant JG Rowan Hale.

Several weeks have passed since I reported aboard the USS Sunfire. The distinction between days has already begun to erode, replaced by duty rotations, alert tones, and the constant vibration of the engines through the deckplates. This is a familiar phenomenon. I have experienced it before. The recurrence is… notable.

Assuming the role of Chief Medical Officer has proceeded with fewer complications than anticipated. That does not imply the absence of scrutiny. Lieutenant Commander Aurora Vali has proven invaluable in both administrative and clinical matters. Her insight into crew psychology is precise and uncomfortably…


» USS Sunfire — Acting Command Log - Bajoran Satellite Transfer

Posted on Fri Dec 5th, 2025 @ 6:38pm by Commander Jenna Ramthorne

Commander Jenna Lee Ramthorne, Bridge

Orbital track remains stable over Bajor’s northern hemisphere. Power levels nominal, comm buoy array holding lock. Current duty shift cycling cleanly.

At 1427 hours, Deep Space Nine signaled priority contact. Colonel Kira Nerys appeared on main viewer. Her report was short and to the point: the replacement control satellite had passed all station-level diagnostics and was ready for handover. Requested Sunfire to retrieve, position, and complete final activation protocols. Authorization codes transmitted and verified.

Acknowledged the order and initiated retrieval preparations.

Helm plotted a straight-line course from our current orbital anchor to DS9 at three-quarter…

Personal Log, Leo Da’Cinci — Supplemental
(Confidential. Not for official record. If ye’re readin’ this, put it back where ye found it, or I’ll throttle ye with me own spanner.)



I woke up this mornin’ to the bloody computer chirpin’ in me ear again. 0600 hours sharp, no mercy, no consideration. “Good mornin’, Lieutenant Da’Cinci,” it says, as though I’m about to spring out of bed with a smile. Ha! I roll over, mumble a curse or three, and slap the console ‘til it shuts up. Truth be told, if the ship herself didn’t need me, I’d never leave the…

Personal Log:
Entry 2

The transfer to the USS Sunfire is still pending. The ship hasn't arrived at Deep Space 9 yet, and so I am left to wait. I've been spending my time in my quarters, staring out the window at the endless parade of vessels docked at the station's ring. My gaze keeps drifting back to my own ship, the Achilles-class I brought here, a testament to my own work. Seeing it so close only makes my current assignment feel more… ordinary.
I have been officially assigned the position of Chief Strategic Operations Officer. In a time of…

Kitiuas stepped into her new quarters, much larger do to the fact it was designated for family.
Kasso looked up from the kitchen nook 'Well you look like a warmed over korgasant." said Kasso as she stirred something in the Orion firepot in front of her. Kit could smell the rich spices and sizzling food and smiled.
Kit replied, "I feel like a warmed over korasant. I need to take a shower before I nurse . Where is Astraea by the way?"
Kasso nodded to the side of the counter, there was a small Orion rocker crib. "I finally got…
