 "Captain's Log, stardate… I don't know.  thinks we're cadets. She told me to log whatever my crew has been up to, but there's not much to report. Since we almost flew directly into a dying star, Janeway thought it might be nice to teach us some basics on how to pilot a starship. And she taught us the wonders of autopilot. She also trained us how to  a course to avoid anything that might try to hurt us… like our Diviner who's probably not pleased we took his daughter. The more distance we put between us and Tars Lamora, the better. But big picture, As long as our course is set to avoid any trouble, we shouldn't have any. Right?"

Following the stars. ()

"Captain's Log, supplemental. Even though this planet tried to trip us up, we've almost reached the Protostar by following the stars, which was my brilliant idea with a little assist."

Contact with the Damsel in distress. ()

"Captain's Log, We've been on edge since Gwyn showed us what happened to the last Protostar crew. The mystery surrounding our ship still haunts us… Janeway most of all. We are all frustrated we can't find out more, but, in the meantime, we've discovered a welcome distraction."

Message from Gwyn to Rok. ()
"Hey, Rok, how are ya? I don't have much time, so I'll get right to it. I'm sorry we all pushed you to be security officer. I've been told what to do and who to be my whole life, too. I know you're young. You're capable of so much. I want you to be the best at whatever you want. But, to have that chance, I need for you to pay close attention. I attached files with schematics to build a warp matrix and where to find the right dilithium coupler. I tried to do it, but things got complicated. So it's up to you. I know you can do it. The crew believes in you."
