Summary

Lela Dax, a newly joined Trill and member of the Trill ruling council, defies her fellow legislators when an unknown alien vessel appears in orbit and refuses to leave.

  • In the story, T'Pau describes Vulcan's "most recent encounter" with a new race, clearly describing humans and the events of that first contact in 2063. It's not clear exactly how "recent" this was, but given the repeated references to Lela's youth, it is reasonable to place this story fairly close to that event.
