The Kazon were never exactly a threat even forty years ago against the USS ''Voyager'' (it always took multiple Kazon ships to pose a credible threat), and ''Voyager'' was just a medium cruiser stuck on its own with no support. Now factor in that Morgan's ship is a ''D'deridex''-class battlecruiser with modern armament ''and'' a cloaking device. T'Khnialmnae, the tactical officer, says the Kazons' weapons are about as good as what the Romulans were using a century ago and the shields aren't much better.

[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10680864/1/Aen-rhien-Vailiuri "Aen'rhien Vailiuri"]] is a ''VideoGame/StarTrekOnline'' fanfic by Tropers/StarSword written for [[http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1196251 Literary Challenge #67: Delta Rising]] on the ''STO'' forum.
Following the opening of the Delta Quadrant to sustained exploration by the presence of the {{Dyson sphere}}s, the Romulan Republic sends two warbirds into the quadrant on an exploration mission. One of them is the ch'M'R ''Aen'rhien'' under the command of ''Khre'Riov'' Morgan t'Thavrau.
The fic serves as an introduction for most of Morgan's command crew.

!!This fic provides examples of the following tropes:
* CurbStompBattle: {{Justified}}. The Kazon were never exactly a threat even forty years ago against the USS ''Voyager'' (it always took multiple Kazon ships to pose a credible threat), and ''Voyager'' was just a medium cruiser stuck on its own with now support. Now factor in that Morgan's ship is a ''D'deridex''-class battlecruiser with modern armament ''and'' a cloaking device. T'Khnialmnae, the tactical officer, says the Kazons' weapons are about as good as what the Romulans were using a century ago and the shields aren't much better.
* DefiantToTheEnd: [[spoiler:Maje Tillih tells Morgan to "die in a fire" while she's {{Neck Lift}}ing him, right before [[NeckSnap she breaks his neck]].]]
* DeliberateValuesDissonance: Morgan isn't human and doesn't see anything wrong with [[spoiler:killing an unarmed Kazon prisoner in anger]]. Legally she was within her rights, and [[spoiler:the Kazon had just impugned her right to command the ship]]. Jaleh Khoroushi disagrees. [[ForeignLanguageTirade Vehemently.]] (So does the author, citing the trope in the author's notes.)
* {{Expy}}: The ''Axiana'' was said in the author's notes to have been inspired by ''[[Series/{{Firefly}} Serenity]]''.
* FantasticRacism: Played with. Jaleh wonders if Morgan
* FirstNameBasis: {{Discussed}}. Tovan tells Jaleh to call him by his first name, because Morgan doesn't do that anymore and he misses it.
* ForeignCussWord: Jaleh cusses out Morgan in Farsi. [[http://www.youswear.com/index.asp?language=Farsi According to this]], her "''Kire asbe abi too koonet!''" translates to "hippo's cock in your ass". There's also "''lanat bar sheyan''", an equivalent of "Oh, my God".
* ForeignLanguageTirade: Jaleh cusses out Morgan in Farsi; Morgan shoots back in Rihan. Also a {{Narrative Profanity Filter}}ed part where the Kazon maje launches into a tirade at Morgan of which only about every third or fourth word gets translated by her [[TranslatorMicrobes universal translator]].
* GratuitousForeignLanguage: A lot of the dialogue is peppered with Rihan, including all the characters' ranks. There's also a few pieces of Farsi from Jaleh.
* HumansAreWhite: Averted. Jaleh, the only human in the whole story, is Persian.
* MeaningfulName: ''Aen'rhien'' translates to "bloodwing", as in [=ChR=] ''Bloodwing'' from the ''Literature/{{Rihannsu}}'' novels.
* MoralityPet: Jaleh and Tovan tr'Khev discuss the possibility of Jaleh becoming one for Morgan.
--> '''Tovan:''' ... ultimately she’s ''leih'' of this warbird and she’s going to run it the way she wants. If you want to change her, you’re going to have to work at it.
* NeckLift[=/=]NeckSnap: [[spoiler:A supremely pissed-off Morgan lifts Maje Tillih off the ground one-handed before breaking his neck.]]
* PardonMyKlingon:
** Upon learning that they're going to have to carry the Kazon prisoners to the Optrican base on the ''Aen'rhien'', Tovan tr'Khev's reaction is "''Fvadt.''"[[labelnote:trans.]]"Damn."[[/labelnote]]
** Morgan's retort to Jaleh's "''Kire asbe abi too koonet!''" is "''Urru Areinnye!'"[[labelnote:trans.]]"Go to hell!"[[/labelnote]]
* PintSizedPowerhouse: The Optrican ship, though it's an InformedAttribute since it's never shown fighting. However, it's about the size of a ''Defiant''-class and is said to have six weapons emplacements equivalent to the main gun of a Jem'Hadar attack ship, and shields comparable to an ''Ambassador''-class.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: When you put a male-chauvinist society like the Kazon next to a WorldOfActionGirls like the Romulan military, you're gonna have trouble. [[spoiler:Maje Tillih thinks that because Morgan's a woman she dishonors her ship by commanding it. She kills him for that.]]
* PromotionToParent: {{Discussed}}. Jaleh was the second of five children and she and her older brother Ehsan basically ended up backing up their parents.
* StarfishAliens: The Optricans are described as purple centaurs with six legs.
* TokenHuman: Morgan's Starfleet liaison/operations officer, Lieutenant Commander Jaleh Khoroushi, is explicitly the only human on the entire ''ship'', never mind the main cast.
