The U.S.S. Voyager investigates a graveyard of worlds, only to find that the past—and its intoxicating secrets—is still very much alive.
While surveying the debris field of a recent, catastrophic planetary collision, the Voyager is enveloped by a shimmering, metallic dust cloud. Amidst the swirling frozen minerals, the sensors pick up trace amounts of latinum—a rare, volatile substance in this region of the Delta Quadrant. As the ship clears the cloud, the crew believes they have escaped unscathed, unaware of the problems brewing below deck.
Within hours, the Voyager devolves into a scene of chaotic revelry. Senior officers and ensigns alike are consumed by reckless impulses, their judgment eroded by a synthetic "high" that makes the ship feel like a playground. As the "party" spreads through the decks, essential systems—transporters, long-range comms, and safety protocols—are critically damaged by a crew that has lost all sense of professional conduct.
With the ship drifting aimlessly and the medical team struggling to maintain their own cognitive clarity, the unaffected few must find a way to stop the infection before the next impulsive act turns fatal.
The crew is no longer in control of the ship—or themselves. |
