• Interstellar war between the Furies and the Unclean draws to an end in the Alpha Quadrant. Tiin, the Cannibal Whose Bed Would Not Be Shared, commands the final defense from the Autocrat’s chair. A small fleet of a few thousand ships lures the main contingent of Unclean, attacking them from out of the black, breaking a four-century truce. The entire remaining field-unity of Unclean go in pursuit and when the last Fury ships retreat they number 21 out of more than 4,000. When the Furies prepare to die, approached by the Unclean from different vectors, they are thrown through the Bajoran wormhole’s backwash (energy released 5,000 years into the past from c. 2371 C.E.). Light from the subspace tunneling is so great that it will be detectable for 3 or 4 millennia. The swarms of the Unclean are decimated but not annihilated, and they will take up residence along the eastern spiral arm of the galaxy for the next five millennia. The defeated Furies civilization (consisting of the Danai, Bardoi, Ak’lins, Sakill, Jequat, and others) is banished to the far side of the galaxy. During the first few decades, millions perish while the civilization falls into barbarism. A thousand year dimness begins. Their entire culture will be based solely on returning to “Heaven” (the Alpha Quadrant of the Near Side of the galaxy) from “Hell” (the Delta Quadrant of the Far Side of the galaxy). Some survivors of this war in the Alpha Quadrant end up stranded on pre-Federation homeworlds in the Near Side of the galaxy. These include Earth, Vulcan, Andor, and Orion among others such as the < ?print_link("/encyclopedia/astrometrics/index.php?inc=qonos","Klingon homeworld");?>, and even the Ferengi will know of them. On Earth, they will form many of the demon legends (in conjunction with the Danons‘ visitation?) and the basis of Druidism. On Vulcan, they are called the Ok’San. The Klingon race will be most strongly affected (calling them Iraga, Shushara, Hullam’gar, and the KdIchpon), the demons promising to return with the Havoc and consume the weak.
  [TOS #079, TNG #041, DS9 #016, VOY #09]
• In an alternate timeline, the Defiant (from 2371 C.E.) is thrown back in time to the Furies‘ final battle by the Unclean‘s tampering with the Bajoran wormhole. Lt. Jadzia Dax (just her host body) suffers lethal radiation exposure and creates a diversion with a lifepod, allowing the ship to escape. She will be assimilated by the Unclean. Captain Sisko and the entire ship’s complement (save for Lt. Dax’s symbiont and Dr. Bashir) die and the Defiant is hidden in a cometary fragment on the outskirts of the Sol system in the Oort cloud. On Year 1, Day 6, 23:40, Dr. Bashir places the Dax symbiont into stasis. He will live out the rest of his life in the ship’s hull, some 70 years.
