Sitting in a lounge chair facing the window of the ensign's quarters, Joe takes a sip of Irish Whiskey and sighs.

"Following up the narrow victory in our dance with the USS Galaxy, the Boston was ordered to the Tathi Accord. Apparently...Counselor Siriinya was recalled home due to a diplomatic incident." He sips his glass and sets it down on the table next to him.

"Upon reaching Accord space, the Boston was contacted by a Notharan inspection patrol. Things went surprisingly smooth...although they could've just knocked instead of tripping the sensors off with an intruder alert. The Notharans were not what I expected." The ensign picks up a PADD from the table and glances over it.

"They appear to be a warrior like race, from what I gathered at least. I certainly hope to learn more about them should we get the chance. " He picks up his glass, swirls it around then takes a long sip and sighs softly. "As for the USS Vostok...well, that is looking like a big rabbit hole we're going down. The old vessel was declared missing several years ago along the Cardassian border. Now the vessel, among others it seems, was involved in a series of attacks against along the Tathi border."

The tall ensign finishes his drink, wincing a little before setting the glass down. "My gut tells me that these attacks were staged. I just hope we can find out more while we're here. Computer access playlist Harper One, track 11, and end log."

Hitch a Ride by Boston begins playing as the recording ends.
