Returning to the Deneb System, the USS Olympic is tasked with providing medical aid and support while using the Olympic Journal to report on the events, efforts, and impacts of the situation on the ground.  A reporter and his team from the Federation News Network are assigned to work with the Journal.  They are told to work together towards a common goal, but there is concern about intentions and trust as they begin their mission.  Returning to the Deneb system brings up memories of the events, not a month old, and officers and crew struggle to accept the short-lived and brutal war is truly over.
