Cool illustration. That’s AI generated, though, correct?

I’ve been wondering about the eyes: Reportedly Tarima is wearing some sort of neural suppressor on her neck, curtailing her telepathic abilities. It’s just a wild theory, but could that perhaps be changing the coloring of her eyes?

Partly. And I'd love to read those spoilers but I think I'll wait to be surprised.

So, I'm guessing that Betazed has not rejoined the Federation post-burn yet and Tamira's arc will follow convincing them to rejoin.

I love this synopsis. It means they are continuing to address the Federation recovery.

One review said that Betazed put up a telepathic shield around their planet and became isolationist after the burn.
