Some of the people I trade with have joined me at the mining field should he decide to come back and take it by force. You are a seasoned warrior; your help would be appreciated.

Cease your operations here and leave the mining field, or we will have to resort to more extreme measures.

Qarish
Dialogue
Independent, you seem a reasonable sort. I mine this field so that the people in this area have access to Dilithium. I charge only enough to cover my expenses and to live modestly.

Character
Qarish
Dialogue
People like the petaQ who hired you want to claim these fields so they can control access to energy and charge extortionate rates for a resource they will ensure is in short supply.

A morality lesson coming from a blHnuch? It would be humorous, were it not such an affront.

You had no legitimate claim on that mining field. You used us to eliminate your final obstacle, because to do so yourself would have threatened the lawfulness of your claim on the field.

It is just business, Independent. Bleeding hearts like that blHnuch impede progress. If it had not been me, it would have been someone else. That is the way of things.

You may.

You are a man of duty and honor, that much is clear. Why did you flee from your duties as a warrior of the Empire?
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Qarish
Dialogue
I do not believe I ever really fit within the Empire. There is little room there for people who do not fit the mold. I chose to be a warrior because I believed that it would bring me the honor I craved.
Objective ID
56,829,542
Phase

Qarish
Dialogue
But my belief dwindled over time. The actions I took as a soldier brought me a private shame that I could never give voice to.

Out here, I have found peace and community, something the Empire seems to have forgotten about in its quest for power and domination.

Out here, I have found a way to reclaim the honor the Empire stripped from me so long ago.

There is an unclaimed mining field in Tor'Lenok, a promising investment. I intend to claim it as my own. I have all the proper authorizations, but a local blHnuch is making things difficult for me.

A coward of the highest order, Independent. This baktag is a deserter, a disgraced warrior of the Klingon Imperial Fleet, sentenced to discommendation and exile.
