The Fourth Expedition arrives in Messier 4. But instead of a few mining ships and supply vessel, an entire Starfleet Task Force is detected. Headed by Commodore Grissom, TFCO for Task Force Hecate of the Office Of Special Investigation, it soon becomes apparent that something is happening. Within hours of arriving, he assembles the command staff of Canopus Station to lay out the reason why he is here with a fleet at his back: he has been ordered by Starfleet and the Federation Council to combat the Myriad.


Information is relayed to all that the Myriad has begun to operate within the Alpha Quadrant, supplying dangerous advanced technology to factions of dissident groups and malcontents. Starfleet and the UPF Council want to know how the Myriad are able to travel to the Milky Way if they are doing so with ships or some other means. Commodore Grissoms Task Force is set with the goal of treating with the Myriad to a peaceful outcome or eliminating the threat. To that end Commodore Grissom assumes command over all theatre wide operations, supplanting Captain Ingram's authority.


Within the 4th Expedition group the USS Sherman Potter, an Olympic-class hospital ship, is welcomed to Messier 4.
