The Storyteller Stardate 46729.1

O'Brien and Bashir answer a distress call from Bajor which stated that the whole community is in danger. Bashir is puzzled to find nearly all the villagers, except the elderly Sirah, to be in perfect health, but the people insists all their lives were in peril. They soon discover that the threat comes from the legendary Dal'Rok, a mythical creature which descends upon the village for five nights of each year in an attempt to destroy it. But every year, the Dal'Rok has been fended off by the village sirah that told a Story, but this year, the Sirah may not be able to complete the story.
