- The Aggregation never even had a chance – all thanks to the Commander. So, what’s our next assignment? When are we heading out?

- Dialogue
- The Aggregation isn’t easy to throw off the tail. You must lie low until Section 31 fabricates your new identities and ensures our data security. In the meantime, your team will repay the Commander.

- Discretion is the key to our success, and Section 31 has always relied on the agents as the main source of data for our operations. However, things have changed.

- With multiple threats like the Aggregation arising, we must establish a centralized base of operations. The challenge is finding the location: no place is safe enough for a secret intelligence organization.

- But you have proved yourself to me, Commander, and your Station might just be one of the most secure places in this quadrant. So, I suggest a deal: our recon data in exchange for a plot on your Station.

- The crew pilots an independent trade vessel; what distinguishes them from the others is an automated response to an encoded short-range transmission. I already sent it to your systems.
