Negotiations began on board [[DS13|Deep Space 13]] in mid-2418. Before the nogotiations could proceed very far, however, the Tholian Ambassador was killed. Initial invesitgations pointed towards agents of the [[Gorn Hegemony]] as being the likely culprits. | Negotiations began on board [[DS13|Deep Space 13]] in mid-2418.

As the investigations proceeded, the negotiations continued, this time convening in secret on [[Orestes Prime. However, both Federation and Tholian ambassadors were killed in a bomb blast.

The [[USS CIRCE|USS ''Circe'']] was dispatched to investigate the murder on [[KRIMAXFOR_-_Planets_of_Note#Orestes_Prime|Orestes Prime]] and to secure the continuing negotiations, now taking place on [[KRIMAXFOR_-_Planets_of_Note#Karbella_II|Karbella II]]. Eventually, both the [[DS13]] and the [[USS CIRCE|''Circe'']] investigations would reveal that the murders were in fact carried out by [[OSFI_Section_31_Factfile|Section 31]] operatives in order to drive the Tholians and the Federation into a war with the [[Gorn Hegemony]]- a war the Gorn could not win, thereby removing them from the galactic map and further securing Federation interests along the [[Gold Fleet]] border. | |||
Eventually, the Tholians and the Federation signed what became known as [[The Second Tholian Treaty]]. Though specific details of the treaty are still classified, what IS known is that it is a lucrative agreement for both sides. | |||
