In Unworthy, written by Kirsten Beyer, after spending several years stranded in the Delta Quadrant - the U.S.S. Voyager is returning to the Delta Quadrant from their home space, the Alpha Quadrant, while leading a fleet of Federation starships to find out what truly has happened to the Borg. Voyager and the fleet's other mission is also to explore and establish diplomatic relations amongst Delta Quadrant space.

With the Borg absorbed into the Caeliar gestalt, the Federation really wants to know for sure that the Borg threat is gone. The new slipstream drive engines allows Voyager and the fleet to make traveling to the Delta Quadrant as a reasonable journey feasible. As a result, Starfleet Command created the Project Full Circle fleet. Meanwhile, with the passing of her Aunt Irene on Earth, Seven of Nine is slowly going mad from the recent events of the Star Trek - Destiny trilogy, which includes Seven not being absorbed by the Caeliar along with the Borg - and having a little girl's voice inside of Seven of Nine insisting that Seven is her former self, Annika Hansen. Former Voyager Captain, Chakotay does what he can to help Seven - including getting Seven back aboard Voyager.

I had mixed feelings about Voyager returning to the Delta Quadrant. After spending so many years stranded from home, I would not want to return if I were them. I felt very much for how the crew would feel, and for their families of being separated from their loved ones again. However, Voyager's crew is an invaluable experienced resource in the return to the Delta Quadrant. I almost hated Captain Afsarah Eden for trying to force the Voyager crew to make the journey. The evolution of the characters seems to make them more mature - and what happens to some of the new characters is rather shocking.
