 From afar, only a few faint pulses of scarlet light flickered through the veil of darkness.  Upward they floated in a swirling mist, followed by a trail of embers reaching towards the night sky.  With a gust of wind acting like a bellows, the burning sparks surged through a maelstrom of smoke, offering a brief yet ominous glimpse into the raging inferno below.  The fanned flames leapt from their bed of ash, lapping against the burning masonry walls, as if mocking a retreating enemy.  Soon they would succumb, and these proud parapets of shelter, tediously built to withstand the fiercest of nature’s wrath, will fall victim to the conflagration, crumbling to the ground in defeat. From afar, only a few faint pulses of scarlet light flickered through the veil of darkness.  Upward they floated in a swirling mist, followed by a trail of embers reaching towards the night sky.  With a gust of wind acting like a bellows, the burning sparks surged through a maelstrom of smoke, offering a brief yet ominous glimpse into the raging inferno below.  The fanned flames leapt from their bed of ash, lapping against the burning masonry walls, as if mocking a retreating enemy.  Soon they would succumb, and these proud parapets of shelter, tediously built to withstand the fiercest of nature’s wrath, will fall victim to the conflagration, crumbling to the ground in defeat.

 In the transporter room of Fierce Claw, G'Meth looked at his First Sword with a measure of reluctant pride. In the dim red light of the small room, punctuated by the pulsing flash of matter regulators, G'meth watched as the First Sword checked the sharpness of his Line Blade. The blade curved in a fierce arc and flared at the to make the cutting surface that much more effective. The blade itself was a light, highly polished silicate composite that had been refined over the years, taking advantage of the latest in zero-gravity manufacturing techniques. The lightweight of the blade combined with the properties of the silicate to make this latest generation of Gorn "ceremonial" weapons one of the fastest, deadliest weapons in the quadrant. In the transporter room of Fierce Claw, G'Meth looked at his First Sword with a measure of reluctant pride.

 The high-pitched trickling of water resonated off the tunnel walls with an echoic reverberation in the distance.  Smooth granite facades gave way to carbonaceous stalactites, hard water deposits, and other calcified residue.  Jagged boulders laid strewn about the gravelly floor, dislodged after years of erosion had worn through seepage cracks in the ceiling.  Occasionally, this collapsing debris blocked off branch tunnels, entombing them until the patient hands of nature reclaimed them back into the crust.  In other areas, the blockage was not so final, leaving holes in the rubble just large enough to crawl through.  The morning daylight could not penetrate this deep, cavernous underworld, and only the glow from Arthur’s headlamp filtered through the darkness. The high-pitched trickling of water resonated off the tunnel walls with an echoic reverberation in the distance.  Smooth granite facades gave way to carbonaceous stalactites, hard water deposits, and other calcified residue.  Jagged boulders laid strewn about the gravelly floor, dislodged after years of erosion had worn through seepage cracks in the ceiling.  Occasionally, this collapsing debris blocked off branch tunnels, entombing them until the patient hands of nature reclaimed them back into the crust.  In other areas, the blockage was not so final, leaving holes in the rubble just large enough to crawl through.  The morning daylight could not penetrate this deep, cavernous underworld, and only the glow from Arthur’s headlamp filtered through the darkness.

 Five years ago, Skip and Arthur attended a Cestus Colony council meeting where security arrangements for the planet’s eight settlement regions were discussed.  Budget cutbacks for the military had concerned some colonists about settlement defenses with Cestus Three being so close to Gorn space.  A plan was in the works where Starfleet was to take over some of the security responsibilities of the colony, but there were those, like Arthur and Skip, who felt that Starfleet had already overextended themselves with the Dominion War.  Their fears were that if Starfleet found itself in need of more troops during the conflict, that they would take away soldiers stationed on Cestus Three to fight elsewhere, leaving the colony with weakened defenses.  Although the meeting was originally intended as a complaint session for colonists to voice their concerns about the plan, the government and Starfleet saw it as a press conference to actually announce the plan’s implementation.  Needless to say, a bitter shouting match ensued where the colonists were told by the colony government, “we’re at war, and you’ll do what we tell you to do.” Five years ago, Skip and Arthur attended a Cestus Colony council meeting where security arrangements for the planet’s eight settlement regions were discussed.  Budget cutbacks for the military had concerned some colonists about settlement defenses with Cestus Three being so close to Gorn space.  A plan was in the works where Starfleet was to take over some of the security responsibilities of the colony, but there were those, like Arthur and Skip, who felt that Starfleet had already overextended themselves with the Dominion War.  Their fears were that if Starfleet found itself in need of more troops during the conflict, that they would take away soldiers stationed on Cestus Three to fight elsewhere, leaving the colony with weakened defenses.  Although the meeting was originally intended as a complaint session for colonists to voice their concerns about the plan, the government and Starfleet saw it as a press conference to actually announce the plan’s implementation.  Needless to say, a bitter shouting match ensued where the colonists were told by the colony government, “we’re at war, and you’ll do what we tell you to do.”

 Dried spots of blood littered the floor.  As Leon pried open his eyes, he could see the tiny dots of maroon spattering the ground below him.  The pain of the metal wires suspending him from the ceiling through folds of flesh in his back had subsided hours ago, as did the throbbing welts from electric prods all over his body.  However, the tooth sockets from missing teeth were excruciating with each breath he took, and the sadistic laughter of his Vorta torturer sent a chill down his spine. Dried spots of blood littered the floor.  As Leon pried open his eyes, he could see the tiny dots of maroon spattering the ground below him.  The pain of the metal wires suspending him from the ceiling through folds of flesh in his back had subsided hours ago, as did the throbbing welts from electric prods all over his body.  However, the tooth sockets from missing teeth were excruciating with each breath he took, and the sadistic laughter of his Vorta torturer sent a chill down his spine.
