Kalinda

Kallinda was one of only two surviors of the Thallonian royal family when the Thallonian Empire fell in the year 2373.

Kallinda's life was spared by conspirator Zoran Si Verdin, who believed that Kallinda was destined to find the legendary Quiet Place, a legendary location reputed to be the site of great riches. According to Thallonian legend, Kallinda, as a Thallonian princess, was believed to be the next to hear the legendary "call" of the Quiet Place.

Zoran took Kallinda to the world of Montos, where utilized the services of a "Psychic surgeon", who made Kallinda believe that she was a Montosian girl named Riella who lived with her mother, Malia.

By late 2375, Kallinda/Riella had begun having the dreams that indicated the begining of the Quiet Place's summons to her. "Riella" had begun to suspect that something was not right about her mother and was reluctant to confide in her.

Kallinda later escaped her confinement and was rescued from Zoran, the Dogs of War, and the Redeemers, all of whom wanted access to the Quiet Place for reason of their own, by Xyon of Calhoun and a team from the Starfleet vessel USS Excalibur (NCC-26517) that included her brother Si Cwan, Zak Kebron and Soleta.

Kallinda's memories were restored after her arrival at the Quiet Place, and gained the abiliies to "see" the spirits of the dead.

Kallinda began a brief romantic relationship with Xyon that ended when Xyon was apparently killed saving the Excalibur from the Black Mass. (Star Trek: New Frontier novels The Quiet Place, Dark Allies.)

Kallinda accompanied her brother on his quest to avenge the murder of his old teacher, Jereme, at the hands of an old rival named Olivan. (NF: novels', Excalibur: Requiem, Renaissance,Restoration )

Kallinda was at her brother's side when he formed the democratic New Thallonian Protectorate in (approximately) 2377.

Kallinda became engaged to Tiraud, the son of Fhermus- who lead the Protectorate with her brother.

At Kallinda and Tiraud's wedding, Kallinda was abducted by an apparently "not-dead" Xyon of Calhoun, who had come to claim Kallinda for his own. Kallinda didn't respond to this tactic the way Xyon expected and agreed to return Kallinda to New Thallon.

Before he could do so, Kallinda was kidnapped and replaced by an agent of the extra-dimensional race known as the Teuthis, who was able to take on Kallinda's form and memories.

Kallinda was held prisoner by the Teuthis' catspaws on the planet Priatia, where she sensed the death of her brother at the hands of Fhermus.

Spoilers for recently released Missing in Action follow.

Upon Si Cwan's death and Kallinda's rescue, leadership of the New Thallonian Protectorate fell to Kallinda and Si Cwan's widow, Robin Lefler.

Kallinda accepted the offered services of Soleta and her Romulan stealth vessel in the name of the ''Protectorate. (NF: novels, After The Fall, Missing In Action)
