The Enterprise finds the legendary Devil's Heart.
Summary
The Enterprise-D is on its way to a maintainence overlay at Luxor IV when they are called to an archealogical dig at Atropos to take T'Sara - an elderly Vulcan female believed to be suffering from Bendii's syndrome - back home to Vulcan. The crew arrives at the planet to find almost the entire archealogical team dead, and only T'Sara left alive.
Soon Captain Picard learns that T'Sara had found the Devil's Heart - a stone of immense power that had shaped many Alpha Quadrant civilizations, including the Klingons, Andorians, Vulcans, Romulans, T'Kon, and Iconians. Others also learn of T'Sara's discovery, and race to claim the Heart.
After leaving Atropos, the Enterprise is summoned by an automated Ferengi distress call to a wrecked Marauder, where Picard finds Heart in the hands of the dead Ferengi DaiMon.
After Data attempts to analyze the stone, which raises more questions than answers, Picard keeps the Heart with him. The Heart tells Picard of its journeys by sending him the stories as dreams. The crew becomes more and more concerned about Picard's behavior, while others intent on regaining the Heart chase the Enterprise down. Picard becomes convinced that the stone has a mission to fulfill, and knows that if the Heart doesn't complete its mission, the Alpha Quadrant would face dire consequences.
