Story:
A Minbari ship arrives at B5 while Zack needles Minbari tailors about
adjusting Garibaldi's
uniform for him (and receives a needling in kind).
Callenn, a new Minbari arrival, has come to take Delenn back to her home world to undergo the
Dreaming, a ceremony which reveals a pivotal moment of a
person's past, a glimpse at their soul. Delenn is
reluctant to reveal to Sheridan that the results of the Dreaming may
require her to stay on Minbar forever. Sheridan sends Franklin and Marcus to Mars
to establish contact with the Martian resistance, in an
effort to gain more support to return the Earth Alliance
to order. On Minbari, Delenn, with Lennier as her guide, enters the Dreaming, reliving
her first meeting with the Grey Council and Dukhat, her
induction into the Council after Dukhat's tutelage, and
her mentor's death during the first contact between
Minbari and humans. But Delenn also remembers the
horrible truth - that her anguished cry for vengeance
upon Dukhat's death was the deciding vote that led her
people into a war with the humans. With her caste looking
for anything to discredit her, how can Delenn's
reputation withstand the blood of millions on her hands?
