Their deaths may not be in vain. This discovery leads to the question of how the Enterprise-D crew survived the journey through the rift, while the Carver crew did not.

One major difference between both ships has been noted that might explain why your crew survived the journey through the interphasic rift while the crew of the Carver did not.

Dialogue
The hulls of the Enterprise contain trace amounts of Trellium-D, a substance known to insulate vessels against celestial anomalies. The hull of the Carver contained no such insulation.

Character
Data
Dialogue
The lining of Imperial Starfleet hulls with Trellium-D is standard practice for all operations taking place in or in close proximity to the Delphic Expanse. One of our last missions for the Empire was in the Expanse.

Many years ago, Captain Jonathan Archer of the ISS Enterprise NX-01 clashed with Xindi forces in the Delphic Expanse. These battles provided us with valuable knowledge of Trellium-D and its uses.

So, you’re saying that the only reason we survived the journey through the interphasic rift was because of this Trellium-D insulation?

Precisely. In order for you to return to the alternate dimension and for us to accompany you there, we must find a source of Trellium-D here in our dimension.

Captain Picard, you spoke of a new Terran empress and how she has enraptured her new subjects. How has she managed to enthrall an entire planet?
Objective ID
1,914,464,002
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Picard
Dialogue
Along with providing classified intel on our enemies, the new Empress secures the adoration of her subjects by placating the baser desires of the masses. She offers nothing more than bread and circuses.

Phase

Character
Picard
Dialogue
Even as we speak, a tournament takes place in the skies above Terra. The sector’s greatest warriors tear each other apart for the amusement of both the Empress and those who have come to adore her.

Dialogue
This grasp on power over an entire planet seems tenuous at best. Surely there are those who resist a life of servitude to one who previously aligned with Terra’s enemies?

Phase

Character
Picard
Dialogue
Of course there are – you are speaking to them now. But the Empress is no fool. She understands that claims on her life are inevitable. That is the true reason for this tournament’s existence.
Objective ID
1,914,464,002
Phase

Character
Picard
Dialogue
While placating her new subjects, this tournament is also serving another purpose. The victor will be crowned “Terran Champion”, and will become the Empress’ personal bodyguard.
Objective ID
1,914,464,002
Phase

Character
Picard
Dialogue
That is why we fight. We seek a true warrior. One who is capable of striking down any challenge that stands before them. One who can point a blade at the throat of the Empress herself.
Objective ID

That is why you want us to return to Terra with you? To be your personal assassin? We refuse this request.

Picard
Dialogue
Then I propose a compromise. You will not shed her blood on our behalf. However, you will lure her into a false sense of security. You will move the pieces into place that will allow me to strike her down myself.

Heed my warning, Independent. The Empress will discover the true nature of the interphasic rift. And when she does, your entire galaxy will be compromised. You must help us in order to help yourself.

Commander, following an assessment of current circumstances and available evidence, all logical conclusions dictate that this Enterprise-D and its crew hail from the alternate dimension.

The alternate dimension? Am I to believe that we’re not the first of our kind that you have encountered?

Correct. While we have not crossed the threshold and visited your dimension ourselves, we have had prior dealings with your kind. You and your crew are affiliated with the Terran Empire.
Objective ID

Phase

An astute assessment. And indeed, a surprising one. You are the first to have correctly identified us. Everyone else has assumed that we are, in fact, our counterparts from this dimension.

These assumptions spell trouble for Captain Picard of this dimension. Your rampage throughout the sector has been witnessed. Captain Picard and his crew will be blamed for your actions.

That is none of my concern. My priorities lie in finding a way back to my own realm, and in finding a warrior of great prowess to accompany me. I believe that you may be the very one I’ve been looking for.

There are still numerous questions that must be answered. How did you arrive here? Why do you need a warrior to accompany you back to your own realm?

Character
Picard
Dialogue
The answer to all of your questions lies with her. The Terran people have been bewitched by a demon. One that has claimed the very throne of the Empire itself. One whose name I dare not speak.

Her presence has brought renewed prosperity to a once-crumbling Empire. She uses secret intel obtained from our enemies to gain the upper hand in any given conflict, time and time again.

Character
Picard

She is capable of such feats since she was once directly associated with our enemies, the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance. Her intel is now used against those who gave it to her. Duplicitous filth!

It was an interphasic rift. The new Terran leader thought that she was executing you. But instead, she sent you here. To our dimension.
