Xanthras System

Picard plots the Enterprise's course to the Xanthras system, a remote stellar expanse serving as rendezvous point with the USS Zapata. Wesley Crusher takes the helm for the first time, punching in coordinates for Xanthras Three at warp factor six amid the bridge crew's watchful eyes. The system's pull draws the ship from spacedock orbit, framing a mission waypoint thick with command tests and interstellar logistics. Crew tension simmers beneath routine orders, as the distant stars promise coordination with allied vessels.
