Character

Hennesey

passive vulnerable narrative catalyst medically compromised

An unconscious, vulnerable patient housed in the ship's Sickbay whose infection with Andronesian encephalitis catalyzes a violent ethical and physical clash. Scanned and diagnosed by Dr. Pulaski, Hennesey becomes the focus of Anya’s feral, custodial fury — the threatened target of a demanded destruction and a subsequent monstrous assault. The patient's condition forces Starfleet command to balance medical protocol, containment risk, and security orders, making Hennesey a passive but pivotal figure around whom duty and protection collide.
