Stardate Unknown Three months after a possessed Gul Dukat killed Jadzia Dax and sealed the wormhole, life on Deep Space Nine has changed. Kira (Nana Visitor), the acting commander, is upset when Admiral Ross (Barry Jenner) informs her that the Romulans will set up a station office, while Sisko (Avery Brooks) has retreated to Earth to contemplate a way of contacting the Bajoran Prophets -- the aliens who reside within the wormhole. When the vision of a woman's face, buried in the sand, appears to Sisko, he sketches her, and Jake (Cirroc Lofton) recognizes her from one of his grandfather's photos. |

Stardate 52152.6 Sisko (Avery Brooks) meets Ezri (Nicole deBoer), the new host of the Dax symbiont, before departing Earth for the planet Tyree with his father, Joseph (Brock Peters), and son Jake (Cirroc Lofton). Ezri wishes to accompany them on their search for Bajor's mythical Orb of the Emissary, which Sisko has been led to believe exists. Back at the station, Kira (Nana Visitor) prepares a blockade to stop the Romulans, who have placed weapons on a Bajoran moon. On a Klingon ship, Worf (Michael Dorn), O'Brien (Colm Meaney), Bashir (Alexander Siddig), and Quark (Armin Shimerman) embark on a mission of their own: to destroy a Dominion shipyard, thus securing a place for the spirit of Worf's dead wife Jadzia in the sacred Klingon afterlife of Sto-vo-kor. |
