We are in the clear. Time to scan for the ion trail.

I am very grateful that you agreed to my request, Commander. Starfleet, busy as it is, would not have been able to aid me.

I worry for Nirang. She has a bright future, but tumultuous times like ours lead all kinds of people to extremes, sometimes even seeking shelter in the immutability of radicalism.

Do not worry, Professor. We will find Nirang and do our best to help her. The ion trail from the research station leads to Baelos – perhaps she is still there.

No, it cannot be. Nirang wants to prevent First Contact. She wants to destroy our history.

There, Commander. This is our research station. Hmm, why would there be remnants of a ship here?

Dialogue
It was not just any ship – this is a dismantled Borg Probe. According to our scans, the communication systems and transwarp coil have recently been extracted. Whoever did this has already left the station.

This system is remote enough for us to scan for an ion trail – it should still be detectable by our sensors.

Commander, your sensors have detected a ship approaching our position.

Another Borg Probe. It must have been alerted to the destruction of its predecessor. We should dispose of it immediately.

I apologize for my unannounced visit, but I have a request for you. I am Professor T’lir, a historian and researcher in xenodiplomacy. I need your help to find my student, Nirang.

What happened to them?

Dialogue
Nirang is a brilliant historian, but the Vulcan Isolationist Movement thwarted her efforts and studies. Like many young ones, she is still susceptible to emotions, especially turbulent ones.

Recently, I found a note in her study papers condemning humans and other species for polluting Vulcan culture. I have not seen nor heard from her since.

Where do you suggest we begin the search?

Dialogue
I have contacted the university and her family, and they have not seen her. The only other place I can think of is my old research station in Memory Alpha – we used it to store our survey data.

If this is your only lead, then we should investigate it.

I am sorry to disappoint you, Professor, but Nirang is not in this system, and the ion trail ends here.

Where could she have gone? Vulcans do not disappear into thin air.

Our systems are detecting an unusually high quantity of drifting chronometric particles. Their presence suggests the use of temporal technology… I’ve located the particle origin: a transwarp coil device.
Objective ID

Maia
Dialogue
Nirang might have disappeared into thin air after all, but only because she is neither here nor now. To follow her, we must repair the temporal device she used.

Oh, Nirang… She’s trying to change the past. We must hurry, Commander – the effects of her actions could be catastrophic.

I think they already are. I am detecting hostilities along the Alpha/Beta Quadrant line, and can find no mention of the Federation in the news network.

Character
Maia
Dialogue
I believe we are unaffected only because of our proximity to the temporal device. Repairing it requires 50K 5★ Gas.
