Biography
2009
In 2009, the expedition returns to find the Tricti trade village abandoned and are greeted by Arin who tells them that the Tricti suffered a severe Culling that left many dead and the fields the Wraith could find burned. Arin asks about the possibility of the expedition being willing to trade for weapons and medicine and agrees to tell them what he knows of the Wraith situation for the sake of their old friendship and the common good. Arin informs the team that there is a new Wraith Queen, "a queen of queens" who has gathered many of the hive ships under her command and how she is behind the severe culling of at least five other worlds and the complete destruction of several more. All Arin can tell them about the queen is that her name is rumored to be Death and he refuses any medical help as its too late. Arin departs after asking to meet again in eight days to discuss possibly being able to trade again. (SGA: "Legacy: Homecoming")
