There you are! Cillian figured I’d find you in these parts.

Hello, Ven. Did you grow bored of the station?

Ven
Dialogue
No, not at all. I was just learning about how humans discovered warp propulsion in this galaxy. Cochrane was one kooky guy, huh?

Inspired, though. And all that stuff with the Borg and the Enterprise– I’m getting sidetracked. I’m here because I need your help with something.

Depends on who you ask… A ship from my dimension came through a surge nearby. Not Surgewalkers, you understand. People like me.

They’re going to be disoriented, confused. They need someone to help ease them into this new reality. Who better than us?

Very well. Where did this ship come through?

In the Alvolea system. Let’s head there now.

You know, I could get used to calling the shots here.

Do not let Cillian hear you say that. He is quite partial to the conn.

Ven
Dialogue
Right. The Aeonians seem to have got the message, anyway. They’re making a hasty retreat. Teach them to attack people for no reason. Let’s check on the newcomers.

No casualties, though our engines are offline. We were already a little shaky after… Well, whatever it was that brought us here.

First things first, let’s get your ship back up and running. 5K Σ-Tritanium should do the job, Commander.

Oh, look. Another one.

Erm… We’ve come to–

Aheru
Dialogue
I don’t care what you’ve come to do. You’re all trespassers here, and I’m having none of it.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Ilhan
Dialogue
Look, we’re not looking for trouble. We’ve come here in search of a fleet that went missing. Members of the Fold. People like us. Maybe you’ve seen or heard something of them?

I’ve seen plenty of your kind in these parts. Enough for a lifetime.

Let’s break this up before they do any more damage. Set an intercept course, Commander. Shields up!

Are you going to keep us in the dark, or are you going to tell us what’s going on here?
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Ven
Dialogue
Alright, let’s just rip off the bandage. You’re in a different dimension. Things are very different here. It’s not like the Fold. The people here seem to hate anything that’s too different from them.
Objective ID

Character
Ilhan
Dialogue
A different dimension? I thought… Well, I thought we’d go through a wormhole and end up in a different part of the sector. Discover a new part of the galaxy, even.

I thought the ships – the people – that disappeared would be here waiting.

Some of them are. Some of them… Well, they didn’t get through in one piece.

What do you mean?

Ven
Dialogue
You’ll see for yourself soon enough. For now, let’s get you and your crew somewhere safe. There’s a colony nearby where some of our people have gathered.

You never know – maybe you’ll find some familiar faces there.

Aren’t you happy to see me?

Irla
Dialogue
I am, of course I am! It’s just… This place. Now you’re stuck here, too. I didn’t want that for you. I hoped you wouldn’t come looking.

Well, I’m glad I did. What about the others?

Dialogue
My crew are all here. We had all the luck. The ship ahead of us was torn apart from the force of the surge.

Irla
Dialogue
The one that came after… Well, that crew is lost, too. In a different way. They became Surgewalkers.

I don’t understand.

You will. You have much to learn about our new home, brother.
Objective ID
1,911,953,982
Phase

Character
Ilhan
Dialogue
Then teach me. Come back to my ship, you and your crew. It will be a tight fit, but it is surely better than this shanty town.

Alright, brother.

Prepare for transport, then. Ven, Commander – you have my sincere thanks. I dread to think how long I would have been looking without your help. How can I repay you?
Objective ID

Just pay it forward. You won’t be the last of our people to come to this dimension. We need to watch out for each other.

Do you have room for a few more, Lugo?

I mean… I guess we’ll have to make room, won’t we? Their ship is intact, at least.
Objective ID

Lugo
Dialogue
I’m starting to think we’d be better off living on what few ships we have at our disposal than begging for scraps from the locals.
Objective ID
1,911,953,982
Phase

Character
Ven
Dialogue
Would it be any better? We’d be crammed in like sardines. Anyway, I think it’s better to try to integrate with the inhabitants of the Margins.

Easy for you to say. Your Independent buddy has a whole station for you to play house in.

Dialogue
Right… Ilhan here is looking for some friends.
Objective ID

Ilhan
Dialogue
They would have come through recently. Maybe the name Irla rings a bell?
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Lugo
Dialogue
Irla… That does sound kinda familiar. If they’re here, they’ll be on the western end of the colony, in the temporary housing there.

That’s what I was afraid of… Let’s open a line of communication to the Aeonians, Commander.
