Storyline
Announcement
“Kamin”--Captain Picard under the influence of a Kataanian probe--has arrived in the present, and is devastated to learn what happens to his homeworld. The temporal crisis’s ability to revive people, places, and things once lost has given him hope, however, that a version of Kataan centuries away from its destruction might have found its way here as well. [1]
Prologue
- Traveler Wesley: "This is Kamin. I know, he looks familiar, like someone else you might know... but understand that he is Kamin, and he's from Kataan, a planet which has been, well--"
- Kamin Picard: "Destroyed by its own sun, centuries ago. But, if I am here, then Kataan could be, too. Please, Starfleet has been described to me as explorers, scientists, helpers. Help me now, to find my world, and save it."
- Traveler Wesley: "We might find Kataan... and we might not. And even if we find it, it could be long after its destruction, or long before Kamin was even born. I agree we should help, but nothing in this universe happens in isolation. The loss of Kataan might have far-reaching effects...."
Intermission
- Traveler Wesley: "We've found Kataan... but it isn't what we hoped for. It's a version from the future, even longer destroyed than it is in the present. Kamin, I'm so sorry."
- Kamin Picard: "I don't need your pity. I need you and your Federation to use all its power to keep these opportunists, these... graverobbers from pillaging Kataan for their own gain!"
- Commander Tomalak: "What Kamin is trying to express is his opposition to anyone making use of the vast neutronium deposits that have developed under Kataan's surface since its destruction. Surely you aren't so shortsighted, Captain?"
- Choice A
- Captain: "That depends on what the Romulans intend on doing with the neutronium."
- Commander Tomalak: "Oh, it isn't just the Empire. The Ferengi are very interested, too. The neutronium could benefit so many people. Living people. "
- Choice B
- Captain: "If it's shortsighted to leave Kataan in peace, then I suppose I am." [See Wesley's response below.]
- Choice C
- Captain: "Kamin, this version of Kataan has been dead for centuries. Why not use it?"
- Kamin Picard: "This is a wondrous future, with technologies beyond what I've ever seen, physics that defy explanation...and morals that are unimaginable. You cannot allow this to happen!"
- Traveler Wesley: "Kamin isn't alone. There are many people who've heard the story of Kataan and support him leaving it in peace. A discussion obviously needs to happen between all interested parties. Captain, I think you need to be there... to ensure all sides are considered."
Epilogue
- Traveler Wesley: "Thanks to you, Captain, Kataan has just won protected status from the Federation. It can never be mined for anything, and all scientific research must relate to anthropological studies of its people or determining how to terraform it back to its original glory. "
- Kamin Picard: "I have felt a strange kinship with you both every since arriving here. But how could that be? We're from different times, different worlds... no longer. I hope to walk with you both on the surface of Kataan someday. Go carefully."
