Nass! The prototype – the D'Vor Feesha, it’s… it’s gone. Our research. Our schematics. Everything. Mavak took all of it.

Quark
Dialogue
I’d almost be impressed by the sheer, unmitigated greed of his plan were it not for the fact that he was stealing from me!

There may still be time to track him down. Scanning for residual warp trails that match the configuration of the prototype.

Match confirmed; scans have identified a residual warp trail heading in the direction of the Alhazar system.

Then that’s where we’re going. Stay with me, Commander. Help me retrieve my future, and a slice of it is yours.

No, but I can guess where he might be. Take me back to the hangar on Ferenginar as soon as possible, Commander.

You see, I told you they were trustworthy. I knew they wouldn’t leave us alone out here.

Character
Mavak
Dialogue
A relief, to be sure. Now, Independent, I want you to occupy a node of Latinum ore and transmit a signal to our bridge the moment you begin. We will do the same and compare our mining rates.

You should be aware that the prototype will remain vulnerable while occupying a node. We should make all efforts to minimize our time spent here.

Character
Mavak
Dialogue
An astute observation. Very well, let’s make this brief. Approximately 1250 Latinum should suffice. Now, let’s get to it, shall we?

Where is this business acquaintance of yours, Mavak? I don’t see anything.

Give them time. They’ll reveal themselves when they’re ready.

Commander, scans of the vicinity yield several Nausicaan signatures converging on our location.

Dialogue
Nausicaans!? No, no, we’ve gotta get out of here. This is a bad idea, Mavak. Tell your contact to arrange to meet us another time.

Mavak
Dialogue
Oh, Quark. You’ve never been the most perceptive one, have you? In fact, the more I think about it, the more I realize just how little of a loss you’ll be. Farewell.

Wait, what in the– Commander, Mavak just vanished!

Dialogue
It appears that one of the Nausicaan ships beamed Mavak aboard. Another ship in the fleet has locked targets on our vessel. Mavak has betrayed us.

Of course, that dirty little… He was just using me as an errand boy to fetch the components he needed. He planned to sell me out this whole time!

Quark, Mavak, do you copy? We have finished mining the desired amount of Latinum.

Quark
Dialogue
Wait, you mean you’ve only just finished? We’ve been waiting to hear from you, we finished mining the same amount hours ago! Mavak, does this mean what I think it means?

The D'Vor Feesha was a complete success, Quark. We’ve done it. Our key to eternal profit and prosperity is finally here!

Dialogue
With this ship, we won’t have to perspire in the hopes of passing on and hoping we find ourselves in the Divine Treasury – we can build our own Divine Treasury!

Quickly, we must secure the prototype. Commander, escort us back to Ferenginar at once!

Dialogue
Well, the ship is safely secured in the hangar. I’m parched – I think this success calls for a few bottles of Eelwasser, what do you say?

Phase

Character
Mavak
Dialogue
There’s no time to rest, Quark – I’ve arranged a business meeting with one of my contacts in the ship-building industry. They’re very interested in the prospect of a collaboration.

Collaboration? You haven’t been blabbing about the ship, have you?

Mavak
Dialogue
This prototype is only the beginning, Quark. Now that it has proven successful, we can begin mass production of the ship. Imagine it – our very own fleet of D'Vor Feesha vessels.

Cease your snivelling, just this once. Rule of Acquisition 45: Expand or die! It would serve you well to remember it. Now, let’s get going.

Dialogue
Yes, our magnum opus is complete. The D'Vor Feesha prototype is finally functional! The time has come for us to test its capabilities.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Mavak
Dialogue
If my theory is correct, and the mining laser has been configured correctly, we should notice vastly improved Latinum mining rates. We will no longer need to seek profit – we will create our own!

Phase

Quark
Dialogue
All this time, I believed that once you lost your footing on the Latinum Stairway, there was no possible second chance to ascend it once again. My friend, I hope you are about to prove me wrong.
Objective ID
973,264,770
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Mavak
Dialogue
As do I. Independent, I wonder if you can aid us in these tests. Not only will we need an escort due to the ship’s limited hull plating, but we’ll also need another mining ship to help us compare mining rates.

Mavak
Dialogue
Quark and I will pilot the D'Vor Feesha prototype to Nasturta. Gather your fleet and meet us there.
