"I know Starfleet has missions that it sends us on where they can't tell us everything. Most of the time, I haven't been on the team going to the surface during one of them."

Azra's background was blurry, a computer-generated effect used to hide her surroundings for recordings like this.

"If, by some chance, this is one of those dangerous missions I won't be coming back from, I want you to know that I love you. I know I haven't been home as often as I should, and that I won't be home for another several years even if this mission turns out okay. That doesn't really matter because I'm proud of what I've accomplished in my life and career."

"Do I have regrets, sure. I don't think anyone gets away without some regrets. There's still a lot I want to do, but I have managed to do the things that I think are important to keep my crewmates safe."

Azra sighed, "Anyway, it's not much, and I know it's not the most moving message to send in the event of my death, but I wanted to say I love you, mom. You got stuck with a difficult situation and you helped me become the person I want to be. Thank you. I love you."
