Despite [[Chapter Eleven - Sinon Quade|breaking their word]] to [[Clothos]] by order of [[Lucinda Cain]], Clothos follows through with their part of the agreement to return ''[[Galactica (Deadlock)|Galactica]]'' and her surviving crew to [[Colonial Fleet (Deadlock)|Colonial Fleet]]. This redemption is staged at [[Caprica Terminal]], which has since fallen silent.  
Following the [[Destruction of Picon Fleet Headquarters]] and the loss of the Admiralty, [[Lucinda Cain]] assumes the rank of fleet admiral and uses ''[[Daidalos]]'' as the ad-hoc headquarters for {{dis|Colonial Fleet|Deadlock}}.
 
== Arrival at Caprica Terminal ==


A fleet commanded by [[Lucinda Cain]] jumps to Caprica Terminal twenty hours after the Terminal becomes silent, believing it to be a trap laid by the Cylons.
== Engagement ==


They find ''Galactica'' docked at the Terminal along with various derelict civilian crafts in the surrounding area. Launching a [[Raptor]] team with marines, the marines board the Terminal and establish communications with [[Praetor]] [[Samanta Agathon]]: she and the surviving ''Galactica'' crew are separated from their ship. Agathon advises that her crew needs time to board ''Galactica'' and leave the station.
Two [[Nemesis]] craft jump in to attack ''[[Daidalos]]'' directly, which is aptly defended by two [[Manticore]]s, ''{{dis|Lancer|Deadlock}}'' and ''[[Perses]]''.  
 
Praetor Agathon's crew readies ''Galactica'' as a Cylon fleet jumps in and engage, while Agathon herself remains behind on Caprica Terminal to investigate something that they have come across. 
 
As the Colonial Fleet's ships draw closer, they discover that the disabled civilian crafts have been rigged to explode like proximity mines. 
 
Colonial Fleet engages the Cylons about Caprica Terminal, with Agathon reporting that the Terminal itself has been used by the Cylons to create interference and false data in the [[IDRIS]] network to undermine navigational data throughout [[Cyrannus (Deadlock)|Cyrannus]].


== Aftermath ==
== Aftermath ==


Colonial Fleet thwarts the Cylon trap, destroys [[Caprica Terminal]] in order to prevent [[IDRIS]] from being further compromised by the Cylons, and successfully recovers ''[[Galactica (Deadlock)|Galactica]]'' and her surviving crew.  
The operation commander of ''[[Daidalos]]'' is able to thwart the Cylon attack and destroy the enemy, thus being able to jump to {{dis|Picon|Deadlock}} without being tracked by Cylons.
