Welcome to Starbase 11, one of Starfleet’s longest-serving installations still in operation. Your arrival to this planet-side post was not by accident; you are following orders. These orders called for your (re)assignment to the USS Cardinal, a Raven-type starship attached to Starfleet’s Science Division with Task Force 56. After an exhaustive refit, the Cardinal is preparing to disembark for its next research mission. The ship’s systems are ready, and the cargo is stowed. All that is needed to get started is you and the rest of the crew!

Seven days ago, while on patrol near the Federation-Tholian border, the Defiant-class starship, USS Crucible, detected a spatial anomaly near the 329 Aurigae star system. Long-range scans by the Crucible detected immense gravitational distortions near the anomaly. The anomaly's presence would appear for short periods before disappearing from sensors, only to reappear sometime later. With no known spatial phenomena of this type previously discovered in this region of space, and due to the limited scientific capabilities of the Crucible, the Federation Science Council has ordered the crew of the USS Cardinal to investigate.

Situated near the Federation's border with the Romulan Empire, Carina VII is an idyllic world with lush forests, a pleasant climate, and abundant resources. Until recently, Morgan's Hope, the colony's capital, had thrived, but in the last year, strange events have been occurring: people residing on the planet have aged rapidly, structures that should have lasted for decades, crumble in days. Crops that were planted in the morning mature overnight and are rotten before the next afternoon. Even more disturbing, the colonists are spreading rumors that Romulans have been sighted in the system. The USS Cardinal has been dispatched to Carina VII in the hopes that they can discover the cause of the rapid aging of people, structures, and plants!
