Welcome to the USS Athena!

"Athena's Song" by H.D.

Excerpt

...I, Athena,
speak of the steel of courage, and the blade
of the warrior, and the shield of the hero...

In 2387 the Hobus star went super-nova, destroying the worlds of Romulus and Remus with it. The Romulan Empire was plunged into chaos. It is now 2390 and the resulting chaos has spread over the Beta Quadrant.

The Federation, staying true to their ideals and tries to help the survivors rebuild. Their help has been welcomed by most Romulans.

The Klingon Empire is strained. The government honors their word of their alliance with the Federation, but in the meantime offers no aid to the Romulans. Another faction of Klingons, calling themselves “The Blade of T’Kuvma”, seeks glory and has launched a campaign against their life-long enemy in their weakened state.

The Tal’Shiar has always had its own plans for the Romulan Empire. In the wake of the destruction, they look to remake the Empire with their designs in mind. They help those Romulans who bend a knee. The others, they leave in poverty and ruin.

And a fifth group watches quietly from the shadows. A group for 200 years no one has thought about. They were given a choice by their respective governments to disrupt their lives and be relocated or be left alone to fend for themselves between two ‘lines’ their governments arbitrarily drew, the Neutral Zone. They chose to fend for themselves. Now they watch and they wait, patiently.

Come join the crew of the USS Athena during this trying new age!
