After the Borg Invasion was stopped, the Infested retaliated in April of 2381.

In the interest of inciting war, they detonated a thalaron bomb in Paris, right in the city where the President of the UFP has her office. The President, Nanietta Bacco, managed to survive the incident, but when Starfleet Intelligence cited that Praetor Tal'Aura of the Romulan Empire was the most likely to be behind the attack, she authorised Starfleet to investigate and act on this threat to the Federation.

Aboard the Theurgy, in the wake of the event in Paris, Captain Ives sought aid from the sole Infested that had been cut off from the influence of his parasite - Doctor Lucan cin Nicander - and the Doctor used his dormant connection with the Nameless Darkness to learn whether or not the Infested were connected to the development. With this Farsight ability, and despite his fear to be overtaken once more, he did it still for the benefit of the mission. He saw the inside of the Romulan Senate Chamber, and the Praetor debating with Romulans around her. He also saw a holographic display in the centre of the Senate chamber showing the fallout in Paris. The proof was plain, in how the Praetor was one of the Infested.

Suddenly, something happened to the Doctor before the Captain's eyes. Nicander stood up straighter and levelled eyes shining white against Jien. The words that spilled from his shining mouth seemed to come from beyond the confines of the present. "You could have enjoyed your end in ignorant bliss, revelled in pleasure while the Queen claimed you all. Yet now, you will all die in full awareness of what will come for you. You brought this upon yourselves. More cities will fall, and there is naught you can do to stop this war. Make the attempt at your peril, for we've just begun."

Meanwhile, a rival to Martok - Gorka, son of Margon - revealed the location of the Theurgy to Starfleet Command and the Federation as a whole. The rival also challenged the decision by the High Chancellor to side with Captain Ives, seeking to undermine Martok's power in the Klingon Empire for his own gain. A chase through the Klingon Empire began, where the Theurgy used the Quantum Slipstream drive that the Savi gave them in order to bring Chancellor Martok and his closest companions to the Klingon home world and the High Council before Gorka did. Through this....

The rival to Martok was defeated, and the Klingon Empire found new unity under their High Chancellor. A unity against the new threat of the Infested, which was no more just a rumour in the Beta Quadrant.
