Forget about that. We have more important things to deal with, like, I don’t know, the very fabric of time itself?

The Commander is aware, and we will get to cleaning up your mess momentarily. The distress signal is coming from a familiar ship. We are not about to ignore a friend in need.

About time! These pointy-ears are cutting through my shields like they’re nothing. You should keep a closer eye on your territory, Commander. It’s not like you to let Vulcans roam freely.

Hmm. Looks like the timeline has already begun to destabilize. Tick-tock, Commander…

Argh! Direct hit! You know what, we can catch up later. Re-routing power to shields… A little help?

Trelane to Toryn. What’s going on down there?

We’re a little busy right now, Trelane. Gah! They’re well-armed, these Vulcans, and well-organized. I’ll give them that.

Thought I’d be getting away from them, coming to the past. No such luck. Keep your wits about you, Maia. This is no half-baked operation. I wouldn’t be surprised if–

I had hoped for a degree of subtlety, but I suppose that is too much to ask.

The tunnels have been reinforced. The chance of a cave-in is negligible.

Now we just have to find out who was behind it.

The Commander and I may have some leads on that. Transmitting data…

Heat signatures. Minor enough to be missed on a high-level scan. They are cloaking their bio and electromagnetic signatures somehow.

Exactly. Someone is here to make sure Archer never gets the Kir’Shara to Vulcan. Come on, Commander. We have a plot to derail.

Character
Trelane
Dialogue
Oh! That explains something I was wondering about. Your timeline has destabilized rather quickly. It must be because it was already divergent, so it’s even more susceptible to stress fractures.
Objective ID

Character
Maia
Dialogue
Then we had better make haste. Vulcan’s Forge is up ahead. Scanning… I have detected Captain Archer and Commander T’Pol’s lifesigns within. Sending an away team to investigate.

No way I’m staying on the ship and missing all the action! We don’t need an away team. Come on, Commander. You and I, for old times’ sake.

Oh, heavens, no. I am more suited to the role of general than rank and file, don’t you think? I’ll stay here and keep Maia company.

Well, that’s not good. Are those fractures in the tunnel walls?
Objective ID

Precisely. An unknown entity is out to sabotage Captain Archer and make it look like an accident.

Well, they didn’t count on us being here, did they?

Dialogue
If I were there in person, I could simply melt those cracks away. From here, though…
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Toryn
Dialogue
Is that supposed to be helpful? Hell, just block the tunnels if you have to. As long as we keep Archer and T’Pol out of them, I don’t care.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Trelane
Dialogue
No need for such a crude approach, Toryn. I want to try something. If the Commander can provide the materials, I believe I can reinforce the tunnels, even from this great distance.

I miss when Vulcans were isolationists. The Federation is barely holding together as it is. A war with Vulcan is the last thing we need.

Well, Commander? What say we nip this in the bud?

Who’s this guy?

This is Trelane. The reason Vulcan is your enemy instead of your ally. The timeline has been altered because of his… curiosity.

Hey, now. Let’s focus on solutions. Pointing fingers isn’t going to get us anywhere.

A rare astute observation, Trelane. Engaging Protocol Origin. We must identify what went wrong and fix it before the timeline deteriorates further.

Working… Turning point identified. The earliest fluctuations in the vortex seem to occur around the time of Captain Archer and the Enterprise NX-01.

Dialogue
My internal records indicate that Captain Archer braved Vulcan’s Forge to recover the Kir’Shara and help usher in a new era for the Vulcan people, ensuring humanity’s status as a trusted ally.

The chronicles of this divergent timeline tell a different story – or stories, rather. Some say Archer died, and Commander T’Pol returned alone. Some say he returned empty-handed.

Some claim he took the Kir’Shara for himself, never to be seen again.

We must go to Vulcan, journey into the past, and ensure Captain Archer’s success. Protocol Origin will guide our way.

Dialogue
That’s… a lot to take in. It’s never boring with you, Commander, I’ll give you that. A journey to the past, you say… Well, I didn’t have anything else planned.

Delighted to have you along, I’m sure. Set a course for Vulcan, Commander.
