Based on the &;Kelvin Universe&; movie saga!
Captain James T. Kirk and the Enterprise crew escort Spock&;s father, Ambassador Sarek of Vulcan, to a dilithium-rich planet called Akiron. They arrive to find this world under siege by creatures that some of the planet&;s denizens believe are demons. Sarek orders Kirk to abandon the mission, but the young captain won&;t turn his back on people in danger. After a harrowing encounter with the dark-energy &;demons,&; Kirk&;s belief in a rational universe is challenged by a mystic who insists that it wasn&;t coincidence that brought Kirk to Akiron, but the alien equivalent of a Karmic debt.
Meanwhile, aboard the Enterprise, Sarek&;s young Vulcan aide L&;Nel has a sinister agenda&;and its chief objective appears to be the cold-blooded murder of Spock!
