Do we know what's next for the story?

Now that the God awful Wesley arc is over (honestly the galaxy/universe ending threats are getting tiresome) have we any indication of where STO is headed next? A much smaller scale conflict like PREVENTING a war in a sector of space between 2 worlds would be much more welcome at this point IMO.

We only have speculation, it's all we ever get till a few days before the next launch. The only snippet is the ending of the latest episode.....something, something, darkside-borg.

A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"
"It's nothing personal, I just don't feel like I've gotten to know a person until I've sniffed their crotch."
"We said 'no' to Mr. Curiosity. We're not home. Curiosity is not welcome, it is not to be invited in. Curiosity...is bad. It gets you in trouble, it gets you killed, and more importantly...it makes you poor!"
They're watching a red colored (presumably mirror) Borg cube at the end while talking about Leeta declaring herself the Empress.
They don't show any drones or mention the Borg by name but the implications are strong there.
Yeah Borg show up, also the only info we have on Mirror Borg is from Memory Beta, if STO Devs uses that info, then Mirror Borg would be enough of a challenge to put long time elite difficulty veteran players in their place,
https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Borg_(mirror)
https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Borg_Collective_(mirror)
https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Borg_King
We also know that Marshall Janeway got assimilated by the Borg at some point & rescued, as she has Seven's Borg implants in the same places.
what if the terran borg are like monks trying to spread peace by assimilating people? lol
Actually they're the complete opposite, Terran Borg makes Prime Borg look like saints in comparison, Terran Borg are more aggressive and more territorial, they will still assimilate you against your will.
Also did nobody check out the links, I posted in this thread?
It wouldn't surprise me if they try to make some connections to Picard's first season and the reclamation project. STO already has some content regarding Romulan experiments with Borg tech too, so maybe we'll also see mirror Sela or something like that?

I've never watched much of TNG, so I'll just accept this.
Mirror Hakeev then.
Mirror Caeliar!
That said the whole galaxing ending threat is starting to get played out. At this point with the number of said threats that have hit within the last 18 months in game time you'd think there wouldn't be anybody left to fight another large scale threat with all the losses that must have been taken at this point
Still, they probably wouldn't have shown the Borg at the end of the episode if there wasn't any reason to.
The Borg doing something in the Mirror universe (or the Terran Empire doing something to the Borg there) doesn't have to mean that we're getting a mirror universe story.
It could just be that the Borg are up to something there - but that whatever they're doing there is not exclusive(ly done) to (/in) the MU.
Maybe they assimilated something spore-related. Or, who knows. Maybe they can perceive other universes as well as alternate timelines. Marshall Janeway and Mirror Leeta might just have been looking at something that we'll soon be looking at too, in our own universe.
Just my thought.
I doubt it, the MU has Mirror Me to defend it, If they're as powerful as My Character than any threat to the Terran Empire would be instantly one-shotted by that One Man Army.
Long story short, Sela was born because of some temporal high jinks that involved the Enterprise C coming to aid a Klingon outpost...in that era terrans wouldn't be in any kind of power so just no way it could likely happen. Next to nothing is known about the mirror Romulans, so just mo way to imagine a mirror Sela being born
I'd have to agree. If there is a Sela... it wouldn't be the Sela we know. She might be a full blood Romulan Brunette.
We do have one possible tidbit though, at least in game. The A.R.W. prefix that came with the Mirror Romulan ships. We know that the Mirror Klingon ships came with an A.K.S. prefix, and we know of the existence of the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance. Could the Mirror Romulans be a part of the Alliance?
Outside STO there was only one other mention of the Mirror Romulans, and that was from the PS2 game Star Trek Shattered Universe. The ISS Excelsior, under the control of Prime Sulu and his crew, had to venture through Romulan territory on their way to get back home. I think it was the Romulan Confederation in that game.
Same exceedingly unlikely series of events, just slight alteration to fit the Terran Empire as opposed to the Federation.

> The only way I could see Sela STILL being born as she was in the Prime Universe is if the ISS Enterprise C was defending their own colony against a Romulan attack instead of a Klingon one - they miscalculated the strength of the force sent against them, temporal shenanigans happen, the mirror C follows the same path the prime did, gets sent back +1 mirror Tasha by the mirror D, C gets captured as in prime and so on and so forth.

That is the mystery or magic about the mirror universe. If it is just one static universe where they are violently killing each other off almost constantly, there is little chance that the second generation would resemble the prime universe at all. For example, if we accept that the ENT mirror universe is the same universe in TOS we already have serious continuity problems. In ENT Zephrim Cochrane kills the Vulcans that land at First Contact. T’pol is enslaved in the ENT mirror universe, but Spock is free and eventually perhaps becomes Emperor.
If the mirror universe is a single universe and not a series of similar parallel universes that are constantly bridging off every time we observe the mirror onscreen (This is actually the more likely explanation) then the mirror must have a weird sympathetic connection to our universe. The events and people of our universe get mirrored in uncanny ways, they therefore must be allowed to reproduce in parallel situations at the same times, achieve similar ranks and status as the prime counterparts etc.
