*The Protostar cuts through the P-class planet's turbulent waters, sails snapping in the gale. Chakotay barks orders, assigning stations to the chaotic crew. Dal, eager but clumsy, fumbles with the jib. Suddenly, Murf churrs a warning—rocks ahead! Dal strains against a stubborn lever, failing to shift course. Chakotay and Gwyn rush to help, shoving Dal aside. The ship groans but turns. Chakotay sighs, reassigning Dal to coil ropes, his expression a mix of frustration and reluctant care as the crew braces for the storm.*
