Stardate 1224.3
The Enterprise has arrived at Hetemit 9, then site of an abandoned Illyrian Colony. The Illyrians are humanoid species known for modifying their genes to enhance their capabilities and levels of function. However, because genetic modification is forbidden in the Federation, they have always been outcasts. Our presence here is part of a standing mission to discover what happened to them. Unfortunately, research time on the surface is limited, as the planet is regularly swept by ion storms, one of which is fast approaching.
Personal Log.
The lights are back on, but that doesn't mean we see clearly. People are always hiding things. Dr. M'Benga stopped hiding today, just a little, and for once, I did too. I told Captain Pike the truth about myself and he defended me. Told me I was exemplary. That he would fight for me. So why do I feel terrible? What if I hadn't saved all those lives? Would Captain feel the same? What would he do if I wasn't a hero? One of the good ones? When will it be enough to just be an Illyrian?
