Well, great. So the moral lesson in the end will be: "Be grateful we let all these billions of Romulans die, because otherwise ... even worse space fascism! Crossover of The Handmaid's Tale and the abysmal final season of... oh, never mind. Had to rant because I'm having serious misgivings for the next season.
Denise wants to come back, so that's half of the way there. But that's not even the Terran Empire logo, plus it collapsed sometime before DS9.
I like the idea of a Federation that's been absorbed into a Romulan Empire that never collapsed. Not really digging the Sela idea, though. Maybe instead it could be led by Praetor Nero, the savior of Romulus!
It could also be the Romulan invasion of Vulcan as planned, which then spread out to other member planets
Oh yes! Loved that character. I was very sad that she wasn’t in season 1, but I’m hoping there will be enough opportunities to bring her back in at some point. Dina Meyer is still out there, I’m assuming, and hopefully available. Honestly, I thought she was one of the very few redeeming qualities of that particular movie.
