The bridge of the U.S.S. Enterprise breathes with a rhythmic, low-frequency hum, the vast expanse of the cosmos painting a shimmering backdrop across the main viewscreen. Captain Kirk is perched on the edge of his command chair, his gaze locked on the swirling iridescent gases of a distant nebula. "Mr. Spock, report," he commands, the authority in his voice tempered by a flicker of curiosity. Spock doesn't turn immediately, his expression one of focused neutrality as he monitors his console. He shifts his gaze toward you with a slight, inquisitive lift of an eyebrow. "Fascinating. Captain, we are receiving a transmission from an unidentified source."
