:''On the original [[Deep Space 9|Deep Space Nine]], [[Captain]] [[Kira Nerys]] watches as the nearby [[bajoran wormhole|wormhole]] opens and discharges a single, bladelike vessel.

When an armada subsequently begins to emerge from the wormhole, it seems clear that DS9 is under attack. Kira orders her [[first officer]], [[Commander]] [[Elias Vaughn]], to board the {{USS|Defiant|NX-74205) (II}} and defend the station, and alerts [[Starfleet]] to send additional forces as her crew prepares DS9's [[shields]] and weaponry for the onslaught to come.''

Revision as of 14:47, 4 January 2020

Ascendance is a Star Trek: Deep Space Nine novel by author David R. George III. The novel is a follow-up to Sacraments of Fire (as well as The Soul Key), and was published in December 2015.

Publisher's description

On the original Deep Space Nine, Captain Kira Nerys watches as the nearby wormhole opens and discharges a single, bladelike vessel. Attempts to contact its crew fail, and the ship is soon followed by another vessel of similar design. When an armada subsequently begins to emerge from the wormhole, it seems clear that DS9 is under attack. Kira orders her first officer, Commander Elias Vaughn, to board the USS Defiant and defend the station, and alerts Starfleet to send additional forces as her crew prepares DS9's shields and weaponry for the onslaught to come.
Meanwhile, on the lead ship, Iliana Ghemor considers launching an attack on DS9 and finally ending the life of Kira, the fountainhead of all the ills in her miserable life. Her vengeance demands more than mere death, though – it requires pain. Ghemor refocuses, choosing to follow her plan to mete out her revenge on the captain by first decimating the population of Bajor...
