While investigating rumors of renewed activity by the Klingon Empire within the Galactic Core, the Enterprise made contact with a shuttlecraft from the USS Rickover, a starship presumed lost with all hands over 20 years ago. The lone occupant of that shuttlecraft, Thomas Clayton, once my roommate at Star Fleet Academy, now the self-proclaimed chosen son and favored prophet of a deity he calls Ay-nab. I had planned on disregarding Clayton entirely, until control of our engines was seized by an as-yet-unexplained outside force, a force, Clayton insists, that is now taking us to meet his god. |
