An unexpected warp vessel had been discovered deep in uncharted space, and adding to the mystery, it exhibited a Federation warp signature. Wolfe explained that the chances of a coincidence were vanishingly small, which led Rhinehart to wonder if the vessel might be the Wyvern, the nebula class vessel that seemed to be dogging them around the galaxy. Failing that, the infinitesimally tiny chance of coincidence all but ruled out the possibility that the vessel could be anything other than Starfleet, but Wolfe was insistent that the crew should prepare for first contact, a plan that seemed, on first impressions, to fly in the face of available evidence. | ||
Rhinehart risked reproach by questioning the captain's reasoning publically, but was left dissatisfied by the exchange, and increasingly concerned over what he saw as the CO's abstracted state of mind and his mercurial command style. It seemed to Rhinehart that Wolfe had been subtly different since his return from the Ivor Prime void, and he worried deeply over what to do about it. In the meantime, the Champlain set course for the nearby planet of Irlix, assumed to be the source of the mysterious warp-capable vessel.
