Even as elements of the Typhon Pact are implicated for the murder, Admiral William Riker holds key knowledge of the true assassins a revelation that could threaten the fragile Federation-Cardassian alliance.

Questions and concerns also continue to swell around Baccos interim successor, Ishan Anjar, who uses the recent bloodshed to further a belligerent, hawkish political agenda against the Typhon Pact.
