The Golant was a 24th century Rilnar Consortium starship, a Krenim warship[1][2] in Colonial Command service in the 2380s decade. Its commanding officer was Ornzitar Rileez.
Service history and disposition[]
In the early 2380s, the Golant was part of the Colonial Command picket fleet enforcing the blockade of the Sormana system alongside their rivals, the Zahl Regnancy.
In June 2382, the Federation starship USS Voyager was greeted by the Zahl space vessel Tascara when it tried to enter the orbit of the warzone planet Sormana. Shipmaster Pilusch warned Captain Chakotay about the planet's defense perimeter. Chakotay received much the same response from Ornzitar Rileez of the Golant.
When Voyager breached the defense perimeter in July, the Tascara was one of twelve Zahl Regnancy vessels engaging the invader but soon found themselves locked in battle with the Rilnar. Voyager's interference was instrumental in ending the war on Sormana and the battle in orbit of the planet. While the Tascara survived the conflict, the Golant did not. Fortunately, the Federation's intervention led to an end of the conflict on Sormana in that year. (VOY novel: A Pocket Full of Lies)
