Commander. How goes your exploration of the Margins?

Maia
Dialogue
Quite well. We have helped some of the people there and learned more about the local factions. There is a great degree of unrest around the dimensional refugees.

Unsurprising. The Aeonians were hard-pressed to welcome newcomers from our own galaxy, let alone ones from another dimension.

The situation is likely to become unsustainable before long.

Dialogue
Well then, it’s a good thing we’re working towards a solution. The data you sent us has been quite illuminating. If we figure out the anomaly, then we can close it.

Wait… Close it for good? So, we’ll never get back home?

Luther Sloan
Dialogue
We don’t have enough information to confirm or deny whether we can send you back. Priority one is closing the anomaly and stabilizing subspace.

And on that note… Bring up the scans, Bristow.

Thank you for your help, Independent. The one you fought was the last of a larger group. We were down to our last torpedo… We don’t typically get involved in a lot of fights, you see.

Happy to help. I suppose an astrometric research station deep in the Margins wouldn’t be prepared to see a lot of action.

Just so. Those things come from another dimension, you know. Horrid creatures.

Get this outsider away from my station, Independent. We’re not open to strays.

The research station is just up ahead, but it looks like something’s wrong.

Scans show a ship accosting the station. It is similar to the ones we encountered when we met Ven.

Ahem! Yes, all seems to be in order.

You’ll want to be careful with the Quintessence Detector. It’s a bit finicky – takes some time to capture any deviations in the scalar field.

Oh yeah, of course. Tricky things, scalar fields.

Well, see here, it’s modular. Just connect every active element to your power source, point it at the thing you wanna measure, run the calibration program when everything’s online… Bob’s your uncle.

I’m sure it was just an oversight. We can rectify it once we’ve finished the assignment.

We intend to.

Right. Well, we got what we came for, anyway. Time to go meet this scientist.

Come in, Commander… Sloan has requested a meeting. He has an assignment for you.

What’s the assignment? Can I come?

Well, of course. I thought that was a given. Report to base and we’ll lay it all out for you.

Bristow
Dialogue
These gravimetric surges have been occurring throughout the Margins since the central anomaly first formed. They were few at first, but they have been becoming increasingly frequent.
Objective ID
62,495,814
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
A symptom of the anomaly, or a cause?
Objective ID
62,495,814
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Luther Sloan
Dialogue
Unclear. Most of this data was collected from a monitoring station in Almeophus. Our man on the ground measured a spike in a neighboring system and decided to try and conduct some field research.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Luther Sloan
Dialogue
Needless to say, his equipment was not up to the task. I need you to rectify that. Bristow?

Bristow
Dialogue
We have contracted an astrometric engineer to provide the equipment we need. The order is under my name, at the coordinates I just transmitted.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Bristow
Dialogue
You will retrieve the equipment, deliver it to Derwin, and help him conduct more in-depth and up-close scans of the surge phenomena.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Ven
Dialogue
Shouldn’t be too hard. We can open a surge at one of the faultlines.
Objective ID
62,495,814
Phase

Character
Bristow
Dialogue
Negative. We need data on a spontaneous surge to understand their connection to the dimensional upheaval occurring in the Margins.

Maia
Dialogue
Very well.

One last thing, Commander. Our vendor struggled to get his hands on the right parts. Seems to be a shortage right now, so take care of that equipment. We don’t have a back-up.
