Voyager, under the command of Admiral Tuvok, has been on special assignment in the Delta Quadrant searching for a race known as the Krenim. We know very little about this race and are only familiar with them as a result of an exhaustive analysis of data found in Gaul’s base on Vaadwaur Prime and the records recovered from the Dinasia system. Both of these locations revealed that the Vaadwaur were ordered to seek out and destroy the Krenim before the Vaadwaur began their campaign against the other species of the Delta Quadrant.

Any race that the Iconians specifically targeted, albeit through their servitors, must hold valuable information. Unfortunately, Voyager’s searches in Krenim space have turned up nothing but vague rumors and anomalous sensor data that is currently being combed over by Starfleet’s best scientists.

There is however one lead that has turned up in the Beta Quadrant – a Ferengi named Qwen has made a very public announcement that he is in possession of various Delta Quadrant artifacts of dubious value. One such item is listed as Krenim in origin.

We need you to get a meeting with Qwen in order to examine this artifact and determine its value. If it is genuine, your orders are to secure this item by any means necessary, although hopefully a peaceful business arrangement can be agreed upon. Our dealings with Ferengi businessmen such as Qwen have been tumultuous in the past, and so we have a specialist in dealing with these matters standing by to assist you.

On Thursday, June 18th, fly to Drozana Station to begin the new episode “Time in a Bottle” and search for a lost race with the help of Captain Nog, Starfleet’s expert in negotiating with Ferengi. If you are successful, we may be one step closer to finding a way to end this war against the Iconians.
