Location: Sierra Sector
Title of Log: Sierra Sector Patrol
As requested by Commander Nyoko Honda, I took command of the patrol of the Sierra Sector, the majority of Task Force Beta comprising the group. We moved between three systems in the sector: Rhi, Sienae and Terrh. At each location, much to my lack of surprise, we were met with hostility from three separate factions.
The Rhi System, we discovered, was inhabited by a faction of Romulans that wished to secede from their empire. This clearly struck Empress Sela's ego as, when Beta arrived, we discovered the colony under siege by a large fleet of Romulan Imperial warships. We managed to scare said fleet off, however, and we hypothosized that possibly, some time in the future, the Rhi colonists may be thankful enough to consider membership into the Federation.
In the Sienae System we encountered a clan of Hirogen using the location as a primary base for their attacks on Federation ships. Being the steadfast and heroic Starfleet officers we are, Task Force Beta moved in to destroy their base and end their attacks on the innocent. The battle, while arduous, contains nothing of exceptional note but we were successful in the end.
At Terrh we encountered a group of Reman raiders seeking to scare away or, worse, eliminate some local miners in one of the system's planet's ring. Standard battle procedures were carried out but, much to all of our concern, one of the Reman ships had a very dangerous weapon. We were uncertain as to what it was, but it had the power to tear straight through a ship's shields. The Republic experienced it first hand, reducing hull integrity to 20%. The task force managed to destroy the vessel, and no more of its kind was spotted through the rest of the engagement.
With the mission completed, all ships in the task force engaged their transwarp drives and returned to Spacedock and awaited further orders.
