Niall’s efforts eventually led to him purchasing a controlling share of the MV Anastasis from the retiring head surgeon.
Things went awry in 2407 when Dr. McLeod was recruited by [CLASSIFIED] for a secret research project. For three years, he was sequestered somewhere and afterwards, he did not return to the Anastasis, but instead abandoned everything and walked away. What he saw haunts him to this day…
