Commander, our analysis will have to wait. I am detecting another distress call from Romulan space. This signal is being transmitted over unencrypted channels.

They must be truly desperate, or they were unable to encrypt the signal in time. Either way, the window for intervention is short, we should follow the signal to its origin immediately.

Odd. Shields are stabilizing. Weapon systems are responsive. I have control again, Commander. It appears that the ship has also left the system. I do not believe this to be a coincidence.

Somehow, whoever is piloting the vessel was able to cripple our ship. We must follow them. I am picking up a warp trail leading to the Sufiday system.

Commander, it appears as though a Romulan fleet was attacked by the ship we seek. There are several ships that seem to have survived the assault.

The remaining ships are surrounded by hostile vessels, however. I estimate their chances of survival to be 23%.

Hmm. Hardly worthy of a Romulan Commander, but I suppose it has a sort of quaint charm. It will suffice.
