Past Iterations.

-

Most of my day has been spent working alongside Starfleet, who are currently utilizing one of the primary decks on our orbital platform. Given that Docosie III sits right on the ragged edge of Federation space, it serves as an ideal location for a communication hub tasked with routing telemetry to and from deep-space exploration vessels.

​In fact, plans are already underway to deploy a small, unmanned relay station at the very perimeter of the Docosie system to extend our reach even further. I have to admit, spending so much time around Starfleet officers, and seeing those familiar division colors, invariably brings memories of both Jadzia and Ezri rushing to the surface.

​The uniforms themselves have evolved quite a bit since Ezri wore one. Yet, with every design iteration, Starfleet somehow manages to maintain that signature balance: a clean, elegant aesthetic that still commands an undeniable sense of professionalism.

​To top off the day, I had a wonderful lunch with a Starfleet officer, now a Captain, who actually served aboard the USS Aventine back when Ezri commanded her. It was deeply comforting to catch up and reminisce. I still remember him when he was just a green cadet, fresh-faced and eager. Some things never change, though; he still takes his coffee exactly the same way he did all those years ago.

What Do We Know

Well, I've done a little bit of research and Rom is still the current Grand Nagus of the Ferengi Alliance at the ripe age of 137 with his wife Leeta (never quote a lady's age). From what I have read, he has made a few reforms to Ferengi society and the Rules of Acquisition. I won't go into details here, but suffice to say, they look like they are definitely an improvement with room to grow. I wonder if he has time to see an old friend and if so, it would make me the first Dax ever to visit Ferenginar.

who am I?

It's me, Dax. I'm Orzal, the 10th host of the Dax Symbiont. I followed on from Ezri in 2462, she was 108. To say that it's an honour to be the current host is an understatement.  I met my fiancée, Ranih, in 2466, just four years later and I proposed to her, as the sun rose over the Fa'hari Mountains on Trill, early this year. Our wedding is next year in the summer. Lots to do plenty to plan and sort. So, we live and work on the colony, our home for the foreseeable future. In my job, I do get a slight perk. Every third week, get to work from our orbital station. From there I enjoy a view of Docosie III and any amazing ships that visit.  Best get back to work - Dax.

Unexpected

Well.... That was unexpected. I visited the coffee shop this afternoon, just to get out of the house and stretch my legs.  When I got there, it was quite busy so as I was looking for a place to sit with my coffee, a voice spoke above the background noise say I could join them. I hadn't noticed who they were till I sat down.  That's when I looked at the couple sat across from me, Benjamin and Alora Bashir.  I tried to act normal but Alora picked up on it and asked if I was ok.  I thought about how to respond for what seemed like an eternity. Just as I was about reply, their coffees arrived. After a short pause, I introduced myself. Benjamin's eyes widened, similar to the infamous stare of Gowron. I then said that yes, I was Ezri but I'm Orzal now, and I live on Docosie as one of the administrators.  I told them about my life here, Ranih and our holographic cat, Jodo. I told them that I was aware they were moving here but didn't expect to possibly run into them un...
