After being joined Midze was sent as a replacement to the USS Arcadia as a science officer, asistaing Captain Dija with the ships fighting retreat back to Federation lines after the loss of Trill, Tellar, and Bajor, linking up with the rest of the fleet near Earth to protect it until the population could be evacuated.

During the battle of Earth the Arcadia took heavy casualties, with Starfleet holding the line allowing Civilians to be evacuated from the surrounding sector, the Arcadia was ordered off the line by Admiral Clancy with sickbay and several parts of the ship destroyed, the crew had a break from all of the death and suffering to share a moment, when Commander Cayde and Chief Akastren were married in the mess hall by the ship's Captain, but the crew had little time to celebrate.

Assigned to a massive force of Starfleet, KDF, Cardassian Rements, and Romulan Empire  to attack a Borg transwarp gate Starfleet Intelligence believed was the source of Borg reinforcements into the Beta quadrant, Admiral Clancy led Starfleet into a slaughter with Borg diamond ambushing the task force and ripping it to shreds, with the Arcadia making a run to the transwarp gate in an attempt to destroy it from the otherside with quantum torpedoes, emerging in the year 3185.

Alone lost and damaged, the Arcadia fell victim to any pirate looking for a piece of old tech, the first few weeks were the harshest, with losses heavy including most of the senior staff  the Arcadia crew found shelter with a race called the Nihydron with them refitting the Arcadia with a new warp drive and a cloaking device, a big power in the region the Vaadwaur terrorized local Telaxian convoys, Captain left behind her wounded with the Nihydron to chase the Vaadwaur, the Arcadia returned to a horrendous scene with some of the wounded being executed by the Vaadwaur and the others taken prisoner.

Captain Dija led a search for her missing crew members, Midze was appointed as the ships acting first officer, after catching up with the Vaadwaur the bridge crew had to witness the execution of the captured officers, with the Arcadia destroying the enemy ships, they went on a Guerrilla campaign fighting and defending locals from the Vaadwaur, but it all came to an end when Midze and the Arcadia were caught up in a huge battle between the Gorn and the Vaadwaur being rescued by a Saber and Defiant class ships, they would later find out the Saber class was an almost exact duplicate of their former ship.
