I just noticed that this piece of music is really similar to the music used in the final moments of the episode "Life Support", when Kira is talking to a dying Bareil. It fits beautifully into Kira and Odo's final scene together.
Kira Nerys"...you do." Odo: "And this is the way I want you to remember me." Kira Nerys: "I`ll never forget you." Odo: "Goodbye Nerys." So moving it touches the soul. Dennis McCarthy was sublime. Atleast from 1:21 to about 1:45. My favorite part. This is a part of true Star Trek. From 1966 to 2005. Atleast as far as official series and movies go. God I miss Star Trek. And last but not least... Odo & Nog you`re missed... Rest in peace.
“All hands…antenTION!” I watched as each of the senior staff proceeded to air lock. Years of hardship, blessings, long hours, celebrations, and fun times cycled through my mind as each shook hands with us junior officers. I slowly stole a glance up at Major Kira.

I felt chief O’brians calloused but firm handshake. “Now remember to keep those systems running Lieutenant.” I heard myself saying “ey sir. They’ll be here for you when you get back.” He turned with a grunt and a smirk. I then felt Bashir’s firm but soft and steady hand. “Don’t ignore your monthly check up.” He winked at me with a smile. I only nodded. As the airlock doors rolled shut with a hiss, I only heard Major Kira. “Everyone dismissed. Return to your stations. “ And just like that, life went on as before.
