Storyline
Announcement
A Kovaalan vessel has appeared and is blasting its way through the Alpha Quadrant, with no interest in answering any hails. It’s up to you to stop the Kovaalans before any further casualties occur, but what exactly are the Kovaalans after?
Prologue
- O'Brien at the Conn: "Captain, sensors indicate the ship blasting its way across the Alpha Quadrant is Kovaalan. The Delphic Expanse has been gone for centuries - they must be from a temporal anomaly."
- Barge of the Dead Torres: "Who cares where they came from? What matters is the destruction they're causing now! We need to put a stop to them before anyone else gets hurt."
Intermission
- O'Brien at the Conn: "Captain, I have to hand it you. You really put the heat on those Kovaalans. We actually managed to get through to them once. Fat lot of good it did us though. What they said made no sense."
- Barge of the Dead Torres: "They said we 'know what they want' and that we 'owe it to them' for Starfleet's role in destroying the Expanse. But we have no idea what they want and neither does anyone else at Starfleet."
- Flustered Jett Reno: "What about me, do I count as anyone else? Or am I just spore dust? Unfortunately I do have an idea, but there's not a chance in Gre'thor they're getting this time crystal."
- Choice A:
- Captain: "Why do they want the time crystal?"
- Flustered Jett Reno: "They wanna use the crystal to return to the past and prevent the destruction of the Expanse. There're plenty of problems with that plan and the Kovaalans are well below the Plakeds on the list of factions I'd want messing with time."
- Choice B:
- Captain: "What are you doing with a time crystal?"
- Flustered Jett Reno: "That's confidential Discovery business, Captain. If I told you, I'd have to feed you to Book's friend Molly."
- Choice C:
- Captain: "How did they find out you have the crystal?"
- Flustered Jett Reno: "They scanned us and immediately hailed, demanding whatever was putting off all those chronitons. We eventually realized they meant the crystal."
- Flustered Jett Reno: "Captain, there's more than just the Alpha Quadrant at stake if they get this crystal. Can you buy us some time so we can get away?"
Epilogue
- Flustered Jett Reno: "Thanks, Captain. Because of your intervention, I think we've given the Kovaalans the slip."
- O'Brien at the Conn: "Yeah, but what did they want with that crystal? They think it can bring the Expanse back? Time crystals can't do that, can they?"
- Barge of the Dead Torres: "I doubt it but I have a feeling this isn't the last we'll hear of the Kovaalans or their ambitions. Something tells me this is just the beginning."
