USS Polaris: Reverberations and Ramifications

The consequences of war do not end when the war does.

Mission Description

“All these things that now, while we are still in the war, sink down in us like a stone, after the war shall waken again, and then shall begin the disentanglement of life and death.”

A member of Captain Lewis’ team is found dead in his quarters, having taken his own life, and as the rest of the team struggles to process, the Office of the Judge Advocate General begins formal proceedings related to war crimes they are accused of committing during the heat of the Lost Fleet crisis.
