Cmdr. Susan Ivanova:
It was the end of the Earth year 2259, and the war was upon us. As anticipated, a few days after the Earth-Centauri treaty was announced, the Centauri widened their war to include many of the Non-Aligned Worlds. And there was another war brewing closer to home.

Because sometimes peace is another word for surrender, and because secrets have a way of getting out.
