The critical matter from <a href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/generational-trauma\/\">Generational Trauma<\/a> turns out to be an intercepted report of bizarre murders in a nearby system.<\/p>\n<p>Picard calls the crime scene a slaughter, an act of pure rage. Maia disagrees: the cuts are too precise, and she reads it as calculated chaos made to look messy. <a href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/william-t-riker\/\">Riker<\/a> recalls a group of Orion Marauders with a similar method, so you pay the <a href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/orion-syndikat\/\">Orion Syndicate<\/a> a visit. The Orion you question denies any interest in the Streenga murders, mentions the money in Starfleet slaves, and cuts the channel, which is where the fighting starts.<\/p>\n<p>Maia catches a transmission leaving his ship just before it is destroyed and tracks it to Karane. Nothing is there. Maia is certain her triangulation was right, and Picard concludes that you have been out-played.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_and_what_warp\"><\/span>Wo und welcher Warp<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>No pickup system is listed.
