Commander, energise. The storms will not return. As I said he would, my brother Worf has saved us all. Captain's log, stardate 47427.2. The Boraalans have reached the site of their new village. None of them suspects they ever left their planet. However, our success has come at a high price. I think it was some form of ritual suicide. He said that he had nowhere to go. He would've died if we hadn't interfered. But he wouldn't have died alone and afraid. Are you sorry we saved the Boraalans? No, of course not. Our plan for them worked out well. But I wish that Vorin could have bridged the gap between our two cultures. I would have liked the chance to have known him better. - Go inside. - Nikolai, don't. Please. I told you, you would have to kill me to get me away from here. I do not want to fight you. Things were never easy between us. No. It's my fault. If I'd been more like you, we wouldn't have had so many problems. No. If you had been more like me, these people would not be here now. You gave them a chance at a new life. And I intend to share that life with them. The village needs a new chronicle. Someone has to begin it. My child will need a father. My place is here. I'm finally taking responsibility. You were never good at drawing. - How will you keep a chronicle? - I learn quickly. Then perhaps there is hope. - Could I take this with me? - It's yours. I will have to explain to Mother and Father. - They won't understand. - They may. I will tell them that you are happy.Most people will remember my grandmother as a healer, but her abilities went beyond that. She didn't just relieve pain and fight illness. She knew that wellbeing is more than just a healthy body. Her remedies would include words of advice as well as medicinal teas, and often they were just as bitter-tasting. I will miss Felisa Howard very much. Her healing, her advice. Most of all, the inspiration she has provided me throughout the years. Rest in peace, Nana. And so now we commit her body to the ground, earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, in sure and certain hope that her memory will be kept alive within us all. Amen. Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise. Its continuing mission, to explore strange new worlds... ...to seek out new life and new civilisations... ...to boldly go where no one has gone before. - That was beautiful. - Thank you. Deanna. Did you notice a strange man at the service? - In his mid-30s with longish hair. - No. He threw a flower on Nana's grave. A camellia. It was her favourite flower. - She kept them all over the house. - Maybe he was a friend or a patient. It was a very personal gesture. And he gave me a remarkable look. Well, I guess I should be going back to the house. There are some things I need to do. It's only a few minutes. Would you come? - I'd love to. - Thanks. - How long are you staying? - A few more hours. Why? As you know, Caldos is one of the first terraforming projects of the Federation. Our weather controls and fusion systems are a century old. I wouldn't mind having a starship engineer look at them. Perhaps give us a few upgrades. Maybe in exchange for a tour of the colony and a home-cooked meal? We are due at Starbase 621 tomorrow morning. But we could delay for a few days. I'm sure we can find time. - Excellent. - I would enjoy that tour. Caldos is most impressive. I feel as if I am in the Scottish Highlands. That was the intent. The cornerstone of every building in town was brought from Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen. The founders wanted everyone to feel they had a piece of the real thing. They didn't want to just imitate Scotland, they wanted to recreate it. Tell me, Governor, I'm curious. You're obviously not Scots yourself. What was it that drew you here? Something about the culture, the heritage.
