Star Trek: Redacted Katra

By Liyahjae Barton

Summary of "The Convergence of Souls"

​This multi-part Star Trek fan fiction follows T'Lara Kel, a Vulcan-Betazoid-Trill hybrid and Daystrom Institute researcher, who is reunited with the daughter she gave up for adoption fifteen years prior. The daughter, Sela Scott-Pike, was raised by Commander Christopher Pike and discovers her true heritage through a genetic test at Starfleet Academy.

​The narrative reveals that Sela's biological father, Captain Kaelen Scott, was a deep-cover Section 31 operative whose existence was erased from Federation records to protect a mission against the Romulans. Key plot developments include:

​The Veridian III Mission: Following a "Dead Man's Burst" signal, T'Lara and Sela travel to Veridian III and rescue Dr. Aris Thorne, a scientist Kaelen hid in a stasis pod years ago.

​Conflict with Section 31: The family defies Admiral Leyton and Section 31 by broadcasting classified research to the quadrant, ensuring the truth of Kaelen's sacrifice is preserved.

​The Gamma Quadrant & Beyond: While serving on the USS Enterprise-G, Sela receives a data gift from a Romulan Commander containing her father's encoded memories.

​The Temporal Cliffhanger: The story concludes with a massive temporal rupture and the appearance of a Borg-hybrid Kaelen Scott from a Mirror Universe, who claims Sela's existence is a "Prime Deviation" that must be unmade to save the timeline.
