We were informed, a few days ago, that a Starfleet vessel was being dispatched to search for the Enterprise -- to offer us recovery and assistance. That vessel, the Excelsior-class, USS Arcane, should be in our vicinity, however, we have not yet seen any sign of them. Sensors are physically limited to local-distance scans, so it may take some time to track us down. Still, we have begun prepping the runabout, USS Liberty, for a 9-day return trip back to Gellius. We can hold out – the Galaxy-class is designed for long-duration missions – but we will still need extensive in-space repairs before we can reactivate our warp engines.
We will watch, and wait. In the meantime, we may have to launch the Liberty, and take response matters into our own hands.
