CAPTAIN'S LOG, 6454.4Due to a series of freak ion storms, the Neutral Zone separating the Federation from the Romulan Empire will soon shift--and the planet Arachnae will fall entirely within Romulan space. Our mission: seek out intelligent life there and, if it exists, offer full Federation protection.To help us complete the necessary surveys, Dr. Katalya Tremain was assigned to the U.S.S.
