Through the subterfuge of [[Durandal]], the ship was alerted to the colony's location. What seemed as a prime raiding target soon turned bitter, however. Thanks to the efforts of the Marathon's AI and the [[Security Officer]], the S'pht slaves aboard rebelled and the attack was repelled. All non-S'pht members of the crew were lost and the vessel was hijacked by Durandal. | |||

This began a seventeen-year expedition for the S'pht homeworld, Lh'owon. | ||
