Just like Saavik being half Romulan, which was filmed but cut from TWOK. I don't think the pregnancy plot was filmed at all, just written.

That was kept in the novels and Saavik’s Hellguard background was expanded upon both in novels and comics. The Pregnancy stuff was thankfully never more than scripted and we dodged a bullet there.

That along with Saavik was supposed to have been in Trek VI but rewritten for Valeris was a good calleven if it made it obvs that the new Vulcan was...not on the up and upStar TrekSaavikTWOK

Cadets Saavik and Valeris training at Starfleet Academy in San Francisco, circa 2285.

Saavik and Valeris are two of my favourite minor characters. Originally Saavik was to be the traitor in ‘The Undiscovered Country’ but Gene Roddenberry was concerned how fans would react, and Kirstie Alley and Robin Curtis had both declined to return.

@senyorspock has created some beautiful works exploring these characters which are amongst my favourites of their work. This piece was inspired by them. 🖖
