[1] When the First Minister of the Bajoran Provisional Government dies, conniving religious leader Kai Winn is appointed to his position on an interim basis and is likely to be formally elected to the office.
A group of farmers refuse to return some soil reclamators that Winn has promised to Rakantha Province.
Shakaar tells Kira he and his fellow farmers (also former members of his resistance cell) were promised use of the reclamators for a year, but when Winn took over, they were ordered to return them immediately.
Weeks later, as the militia closes in, Shakaar's exhausted group realizes there is no option but to stop running and fight.
Unwilling to do this, Kira and Shakaar drop their weapons and, after a brief conversation with the militia's commander, Colonel Lenaris, a ceasefire is called.
