YEDRIN DAX, on a planet in the Gamma Quadrant, became the tenth host of the Dax symbiont, this after USS Defiant crash-landed, two hundred years in the past, on that world. He now leads a small colony, eight thousand strong, of the direct lineal descendants of the crew of Defiant.He plays host to the arriving present-day Defiant crew and collaborates with his predecessor Jadzia to allow Defiant to escape without collapsing his world's time-line. Or rather, he pretends to offer such a plan. In fact, he tries to deceive Captain Sisko, Jadzia Dax, and the others into believing his plan for a quanum duplicate of Defiant would work. The trouble: every theory he or Jadzia could possibly construct, predicted failure.That caused an ethical crisis among Captain Sisko's crew: stay or go? Ironically, Odo, as two separate people, would solve the problem. Because Odo loved Major Kira Nerys, Odo did not wish to see Major Kira die, as she inevitably would. So he sabotaged the program. With the result that Yedrin Dax and his community never existed. The time-line collapsed.
