The Epilogue
The Enterprise NCC-1701-A moved out of orbit nearly twenty-four hours later – with her Captain in command once again.
Though the mission is completed, the victory feels bittersweet. Many Kelvans lost their life, in both the communications tower and the ship. To make matters worse, Tomar's body is missing. Rojan believes it was the work of a group of his followers still on New Kelva. But no one is sure.
On top of everything, though, the fact that no one knows what the transmission truly held settles on the Federation darkly. It will take years to decrypt – if it is even possible.
One thing is for certain. The legacy that Captain Kirk and his crew left here on New Kelva has determined the future of the Federation. And that, at the moment, looks bright.
