One eyewitness states they saw a woman in a workman’s jumpsuit and glasses putting up a poster after which she departed, muttering something about “If you want something done right…”

Rumor (and fact) have it that USS Midway has docked to take on visiting officers for a dinner that is being held tomorrow night by Captain Vel. Word is that the mess hall has been set to receive guests, and the order to “bring out the fine china” has been followed. Now to just see what the Captain has planned to serve!

Rumor has it that the S.S. Kihai, a civilian medical vessel which used to frequent DS13, has docked at the shipyard facility for an extensive refit of its aging systems, which will likely take months to complete. The Reman chief engineer has already started making herself a nuisance to the Republic MRO crew assigned to the job, insisting often that her upgrade plan must be followed to the letter. It’s going to be a miserable time for all involved.

Rumor has it that a shipboard memorial service was conducted on the U.S.S. Heimdall while at high warp back from the Rator System for two security crewmembers lost. Commander Tyrstoc was said to have sat alone with the caskets for the duration of the warp.

Upon its return to DS13, Heimdall has requested return of the MACO commando unit formerly assigned to the captain’s last command on the U.S.S. Moytura. Full, manual sensor system diagnostics and recalibration was ordered, and weapons, boarding, and combat maneuver drills with newly rotated crew have intensified under Tyrstoc’s personal and dogged direction.

Rumor has it that the chief engineer of the civilian medical vessel S.S. Kihai has cancelled all pending work orders for the vessel’s in-progress refit and is yelling at the Republic maintenance team unlucky enough to pull this assignment to get the ship put back together by the end of the week. It seems the change in plans is due to a decision by the ship’s captain to depart DS13 as soon as possible.

Several members of the maintenance team have expressed serious doubts about their ability to get the vessel spaceworthy again in that timeframe, given that many of the newly installed systems are partially or completely incompatible with the remaining legacy equipment onboard. Oddsmakers within the shipyard MRO crew have given 4:1 odds that the vessel turns around and limps back to the station inside a week of departure, and 10:1 that it suffers a catastrophic accident that prevents it from ever returning again.

A PADD was left on a table in a lounge on the starbase. It was unsecured and anyone could access its contents. Should anyone actually check it out, it contains a video of the ruins of Ecurai dated about 10 years ago and a single message – ‘This is what happens when the Romulan Star Empire and the Tal Shiar take over an independent world. They destroy it and murder all of its inhabitants. Don’t let it happen again – contact your Federation Representative and show them this!’

OOC Note: This video is not the video Davin just sent Shiarrael. This is a video that was recorded 10 years ago.
