Having revealed their true godlike identity, T'Lir is relying on Captain Sisko to help repair Kahless' damage to space-time and save their species from extinction. Despite the Prophets' eerie warning that Sisko is forbidden at the Pleroma — a meeting place for god-level species at intersecting space-time coordinates — he and his crew head to the Utopia Planitia Federation Shipyards for a retrofit to the Theseus in preparation to boldly take on the unknown. Meanwhile, a mysterious figure from Section 31 approaches Lily with a mission, claiming the Federation’s future is in her hands.
