The USS Hemingway (NCC-11961) and her crew navigate that uneasy quiet: diplomatic tensions, old wounds, and the long work of holding together a galaxy that keeps threatening to come apart.

Chapter 3: The More Things Change
03 — 32min 32sec — 18 July 2026
New ship. New rank. Same man underneath it. Captain Asterios Ferdinant steps aboard the USS Hemingway for the first time, and spends his first day doing the quiet, unglamorous work of learning a crew before he has to lead them into anything. A new science officer arrives who does not want the job he is giving her. A first officer questions a decision he has already made. A young lieutenant asks the one question everybody else is too careful to ask out loud. None of it is a crisis. All of it is a test.

He came for a briefing. He's leaving with a ship. Vice Admiral Oridanis has an offer for Commander Asterios Ferdinant: command of the USS Hemingway.

Prologue
0 — 15min 02sec — 24 June 2026
Before the U.S.S. Hemingway. Before the mission. Before any of it, there was the U.S.S. Armstrong, a Klingon Bird-of-Prey, and a battle Commander Asterios Ferdinant could not win and could not leave behind. This is where it begins.
