ive had this liddle story arc in my mind for a while that takes place in 2404, and that year specifically because it's the year that the Admiral in her timeline went back to 2378 and changed things. (i might have to mess around with how they look age-wise because i am dumb and that means theyd be like 32 which means FAT arc gets bumped out even further lmao) i'll put my lore dump under a text break. :)

BUT ANYWAY the idea being that it's chronologically a few days/weeks before the Admiral in her timeline goes back in time to destroy her own. In the Admiral's timeline, Ed died in the delta quadrant at a very young age, and Philippa abandoned Voyager somewhere out in the DQ to help with triage before they made it home, so only Amelia in that timeline is around. (And that's kinda what @teitpp wrote in the last chapter of Lesson Plans which is the idea hehe) but so like my idea was that that Amelia leaves her remaining family and Earth to go find her sister out in the Delta Quadrant. The span of time between that Voyager returning and 2404 is 10 years, so who knows how long this Endgame Amelia spends out in the DQ searching but she's inevitably unsuccessful in finding her sister. Eventually she's out there so long that she runs into the Krenim and even joins them. Somehow a chain of events happens to where the Krenim are aware of what the Admiral intends to do to the timeline and with Amelia's help, they're trying to stop it from erasing their timeline.

In the OTHER timeline as the 2404 Endgame date is approaching, the Department of Temporal Investigations have recruited Philippa because they know she's the only one who can stop this alternate timeline version of her sister. Contextually, Philippa not only has a strained relationship with her mother, but she loathes her successful and perfect sister as well and she can't fathom why the DTI thinks she can persuade this other Amelia when her own sister never listens or cares about anything she says. Regardless, she accepts the task because it's at least fun that she's like "gone bad" and needs to be stopped. so she's kinda taking advantage of this amelia's vulnerabilities surrounding her likely dead sister.

Voyager's Krenim and Prodigy's Loom have something in common - when they attack you, you don't just die, you're erased from history. You never existed, you're not mourned by anyone because you never existed and reality has reshaped itself around you never having been a part of it. That is one awesome concept, I love it.

But...

How does it work? Say Janeway got zapped by the Annorax's big temporal weapon, or gored by one of the Loom. She never existed, right? Think about it: How far back exactly does that go? The moment of conception? Or further back, annihilating Daddy Janeway's sperm and/or Mommy Janeway's ova? And at which point does it destroy them? Does it merely stop them coming into existence, and if so, how? Or does it off her entire family line, and if so, how many generations?

Krenim from Star Trek Online

[usstrekart]

I give "Year of Hell, part I" (S04E08, Stardate 51268.4)high marks for the big swings it takes. An antagonist with no interest in negotiation, Voyager unaware they are being messed with until the end of the episode, and finally forced to contend with life far away from home without support. Lots to chew on here.

Krenim Warship Concept Art by Rick Sternbach

[celtic-romulan]

So I’m playing the Temporal War missions on Star Trek Online. The main bad guy is this mysterious disfigured “future guy” type of character, manipulating past events to screw up the future. As you finish each mission, Daniels the Temporal Agent from Enterprise becomes more and more disfigured from battle injuries he will sustain in a future fight, while Future Guy’s injuries become less and less. By the time he’s all fixed, it’s revealed that Future Guy is the Krenim NPC Noye from the previous Iconian mission arc.

I had a good laugh because I’ve been watching DBZ Abridged in the meantime, and in the Lord Slug Abridged movie there’s a random scene where the titular character says “Oh god I love this! My skin is so f**king smooth!” after he wishes for eternal youth from Shenlong.

This was probably what Noye was thinking too as the changes in the timeline undid his injuries.
