Resolution on Moana III

The crew started the session in the briefing room with Captain Ral, XO Kingston & Security Chief Azonan. The Captain gave praise to the away team for their efforts so far and said, due to security concerns of the ship, that it may be best that this team beam down to the surface and let the Senior Staff stay on board the Tiberius to protect her.

The away team beamed down to an area near where the runabout and lifesigns were coming from. Very quickly were they in a shooting match for with 5 Romulans. However, combat didn't last too long as the numbers were on the away teams side, and the Romulans were quickly neutralized. Then the away team proceeded to approach the human, one Ensign LaSalle, who quickly pointed a phaser at the away team and questioned who they were. Once satisfied with their answers, he quickly told his story of how he ended up on Moana III before being beamed on board the Tiberius.

The away team then proceeded to the Ruins and were able to successful decipher some control panels that were Iconian. Once they made their way to the structure itself, they were able to break through the security panel and gained access to the facility.

Once at the bottom of a turbolift, the crew discovered another Romulan, who was quickly neutralized but joined by 2 more. These 2 were also quickly subdued.

Once the team was done dealing with the Romulan threat, Lt. Vos explored what appeared to be a library of sorts. He found and examined a triangle-shaped orb, which nearly caused him some pain. He surmised that this was some sort library and these were data crystals.

Meanwhile, Lt. Foxwell discovered what appeared to be a power room. While studying at one of the consoles, he appears to have tripped a setting. A countdown was discovered followed by flickering of lights and what appeared to be power drain coming from the room.

The next room ahead was where the entire team headed next. Inside, they discovered the Iconian gateway, which is now powered on, a Romulan commander and 8 Uhlans. The crew quickly realized the situation and dealt with the commander immediately, neutralizing her before the rest of the Romulans knew what was going on. The commander pleaded with the away team to have mercy as they were the last of their species.

The away team was able to shut down the gateway and secure all of the Romulans and march them to the surface, all without making a decision on what to do. Upon reaching the surface, they immediately instructed the Captain to beam down to the surface to do the negotiations. The Captain agreed to take the Romulans on board the ship as prisoners and to allow Starfleet Command to decide their fate.

But for now, the threat from these parasites appears to have been neutralized. The team has returned to the ship and is setting course for the nearest starbase to turn over the prisoners and to await their next mission.
