Season 2 - The Wrong Place at the Right Time
A navigation error puts the Dutchman inside space that was never supposed to be on their charts and face to face with a species nobody warned them about. Getting out alive feels like the end of it. It is not. What the Dominion puts on the table is generous and specific and comes with an explanation for what the Dutchman stumbled into that makes the offer very difficult to refuse...

Bad Routes
Post Count: 0Lindsy finds a route through what the charts say is unclaimed space and it looks clean. It cuts time off a supply run and the data supporting it goes back further than most of the corridors the Dutchman has been using. There is no reason not to try it.
There turns out to be a reason.
The ship drops out of warp and is not alone and what follows makes it clear very quickly that whoever these people are they have been holding this space for a long time and have very strong feelings about who gets to pass through it. The Fen Domar are not in any database worth consulting and the interceptors surrounding the Dutchman are not interested in explaining themselves.
The question nobody can stop asking is what the Fen Domar are protecting in there that makes it worth defending that hard.
Weak Eyes, good Ears
Post Count: 0Word gets around that the Dutchman came back from Fen Domar space in one piece and the wrong people heard it. The message that finds them is for a meeting that points to being optional in a way that makes it clear it is not. What is waiting at that station is a Dominion contingent and they come prepared with an explanation for what the crew stumbled into, a number on the table that is very real, and a job that only the Dutchman can do. What the Dominion intends to do with what they are asking for is a question nobody in the room pushes to find out.
Death in the Shadows
Post Count: 0The Dutchman goes back into Fen Domar space cloaked, carrying Dominion equipment through territory that turned the crew pale a mission ago. The coordinates are precise and the intelligence is detailed. What is on the ground when they reach their destination means things that are going to be much more difficult than it had been made out to be. With limited resources behind enemy lines, the Dutchman and her crew must get their bounty.
Hard Answers
Post Count: 0With the bounty secured and the Dominion waiting, the crew has run out of time to avoid the conversation nobody wanted to have. What is sitting in the cargo bay is not just a delivery and everyone aboard knows what handing it over actually means for an organization with the Dominion's history and ambitions. The argument is real and it gets loud and it does not find a clean resolution because there is not one available. Zedd has to make a call and the crew has to live with it.
Deals with the Devil
Post Count: 0Getting to the handoff point without the Fen Domar intercepting them first requires everything the ship has. Dominion vessels waiting for them contain representatives are very interested in the Dutchman and want more than what they came for. A veiled interrogation and allure of danger surrounding the situation places both parties in a predicament they couldn't fathom. The reality is, they need each other more than they realize...
