− | + | After their victory at Thane, the Sojourners quickly moved to grow their control in the sector. Using Thane as their capital, the Sojourners spread out and begin skirmishing with the Ritorians along their border. They send their patrols deeper and deeper into Federation territory. Fearing that tensions with the Sojourners could escalate, Starfleet increases their military strength in the Archanis sector by sending a battalion of Federation marines to {{SB|332}}, and replacing the destroyed ''Metis'' with the {{Class|Excelsior-Refit}} {{USS|Carthage}}. | |

+ | The Ritorians, thinking that they could put themselves in a better position against the Federation, decided to negotiate an alliance with the Sojourners. While they felt they could easily roll over the Sojourners, the military action would put them in a difficult position since Thane is technically part of the Federation. The Sojourner-Ritorian alliance was met with diplomatic resistance by the Federation Diplomatic Corps, but several smaller states, notably the [[Pak'Leth]], the [[Myaz Sovereignty]], and the [[Ferengi]] at [[Mira]], signed a non-aggression pact with the Ritorians as a result of the alliance. | ||

+ | This now gives the Sojourners free reign to conduct raids against convoys and Federation planets in the sector. Through these means, the Sojourners are able to secure a stretch of territory below the [[Ritorian Confederacy]] that allows them to threaten the borders of both the Federation and the Myaz Sovereignty. | ||

+ | In hopes to better combat the Sojourners, Starfleet dispatches Lt. Commander [[Brian Ratchford]] to {{SB|332}} to lead a series of war games. He will take command of the USS ''Jackal'', tasked with chasing down the USS ''Carthage'', under the command of Commander Liarra Von. The ''Carthage'' is tasked with acting as the Sojourners, simulating raids against Federation targets. However, this operation would not go unnoticed by the Sojourners. |
