Silent Veil

In the midst of Federation wide uncertainty, Starfleet Command receives a faint and heavily encrypted distress signal emanating from deep within the Rolor Nebula, an area avoided since the Dominion War due to unstable spatial currents and dangerous gravimetric eddies. The signal appears to originate from USS Vega, a Federation ship lost 14 years ago and presumed destroyed. But the Vega was on a classified mission so secret that even current members of the Admiralty are uncertain as to what exactly the ship's orders were. The USS Endeavour is ordered to investigate quietly, under the guise of a deep space navigation exercise.
