Commander’s Star Log
Commander’s Star Log, Stardate 100456.9
The offer made by the Colonel appears legitimate.
She has further accepted the reality that we will not tolerate beyond unconditional surrender after she and her allies enact their plan. There is also the matter of experimental weapons she mentioned. I plan to have Evoch approach that front.
Now comes the matter of ending this stalemate above Chaltok. The enemy has reduced my home’s cities to rubble. And they are committing unspeakable crimes on Beta Reticuli. I dread what they have in store for Chaltok.
But we still stop them. Chaltok belongs to the Romulan Republic. If the enemy has not grasped it yet, they will get the picture soon enough.
Commander’s Star Log, Supplemental
The Enemy Invasion Force at Chaltok has formally surrendered to the Romulan Republican Force. When the ships began powering down their weapons, I could hardly believe it.
But then, it came with a cost, did it not? Chaltok’s capital city and many surrounding communities are in ruins. Though the Romulan Senate has promised to help the world rebuild, that process will take years. And I suspect many parts of the world will never be the same.
There is the matter, too, of just how many of the enemy surrendered. Most of the surrendered personnel are exhausted. And many of them have not had a meal in weeks. I pity them. But I do not forgive them. And there are their officers to question as well. We will be here for another week I expect.
Beta Reticuli is next. There are specifics there I am concerned about. T’Kon experimental technology being one of them. And other matters as well. The Ancient Regime has shown they have no regard for Republic citizens.
I plan to pool together key people on the Tebok. That will involve convening with unorthodox individuals. Considerable work lies before the crew. But for the first time in weeks, I am confident in our chances.
