“You have demonstrated your people’s strength to me, physician, and in a way I never anticipated. Such fearlessness, such passion and rage—all in the name of healing. You are a fighter, but in the name of compassion. This is what your Federation claims to be, but I did not understand what it meant until now. Perhaps what your captain said to us before was true—that your people’s real power lies not in what you conquer, but in what you build. Both your technology and your alliances.”
