The dust has settled and the day belongs to Starfleet with a little help from the Klingons. The Breen have retreated, and the Maquis are all but washed up. All of that is great however, one question remains can Empok Nor recover. Cardassia lays in ruins, torn asunder by civil war, Rodney Leyton escapes into the great void of the galaxy and Gul Typhon Prenar lay slain by his own son.

The crew returns to Empok Nor from their temporary exile but the ramifications form the Battle of Empok Nor will be felt for quite some time. How will they handle it, and what will become of the station.
