Analysis of the Borg Cube’s residual ion trail suggests that we may be able to intercept it in the Valjavec 9 system. If we are to retain any hope of retrieving Major Kira and the away team, we will need to hurry.

I’ve got to admit, I find these events deeply troubling. From the Defiant’s readings, the Borg don’t just seem to be assimilating as usual. It’s like they’ve doubled their efforts. They seem to be… recruiting?
