Storyline
Announcement
Starfleet scans have detected traces of the most powerful substance known to humanity: the Omega molecule. Wanting the ultimate protection in these uncertain times, the Terran Empire is attempting to synthesize this dangerous compound for use as a weapon. Even a single destabilized molecule could end millions of lives. As per the Omega Directive, Section 31 intends to destroy the molecule at any cost, while the Maquis hope to acquire and permanently stabilize it, providing a near-infinite energy source for those in need. The Terran Empire, on the other hand, promises that if they can complete their research, the Alpha Quadrant will be safe from any and all future threats in this crisis—even the Borg. That is, if you’re willing to place your safety in their hands. [1]
Intro
- Agent Janeway: "Section 31 has detected traces of the Omega molecule right here in the Alpha Quadrant. A single molecule in the wrong hands could kill hundreds. A whole chain could wipe out a civilization. Your job, and mine, is to make sure that doesn't happen."
- Ro Laren: "You want to destroy it? Look, I know the risks, but think of what you're throwing away. The energy those molecules contain could keep a hundred cities warm. We might not have the Federation behind us, but we've got scientists of our own. Let us use the molecules for good."
- Hippocrates Noah: "That would be like handing a bomb to a child. Forget Starfleet's fearmongering and consider this: a weapon powerful enough to defend the quadrant against any threat imaginable. That is what the Terran Empire and I are creating. The question is, will you join us?"
