[19] Her father John Torres visited Kessik IV in 2378. He was surprised at the changes that had been made to their old house there. [20]
Kessik IV was originally colonised in 2264 by the crew of the mining ship Epimetheus. They chose the planet because it contained significant deposits of dilithium. In 2265, Commodore Diego Reyes and Ambassador Jetanien attempted to use the principle of eminent domain in order to seize the dilithium mines, but the Starfleet JAG office dismissed the request. [21]
Orion gangster Ganz had Cervantes Quinn deliver an illicit cargo to Kessik IV, with an understanding that the recipients would kill him when he delivered. Quinn landed in Anzarosh, a town which served as Kessik IV’s spaceport. It was, in his opinion, a shabby place, and one of the most depressing locations he had ever visited. Quinn managed to evade the trap and return to Starbase Vanguard, which somewhat impressed Ganz. [21] |

Thanks to the betrayal of the Duras family the attack was a complete success, resulting in the massacre of 4,000 colonists. [25] The House of Mogh was almost destroyed in the attack, though the infant Worf was rescued by a Starfleet officer whose ship responded to the attack. [26]
Other Klingons were captured in the attack, and kept in Romulan captivity for decades afterwards. [27]
