- The continuing escalation of violence between the three major factions is concerning. We have already seen that people within this sector behave erratically.

- Should it transpire that this behavior is the result of some kind of outside force, it stands to reason that it would only continue to worsen.

- Given the extreme power of any of these factions, this could risk the safety of the entire quadrant. We must do everything in our power to prevent the outbreak of full-blown war.

- I have acquired the location of our old Starfleet contact, Admiral Johnson. He has been reasonable with us in the past and may be amenable to discussing a ceasefire.

- Had there been open conflict in a system so close to the Romulan border, why we would certainly have received word of it. Our intelligence network is quite vast, after all.

- If that were the case, you could imagine that the Romulan Empire’s response would be… swift.

- That is what we are here to discuss. A Romulan counterattack would–

- Hypothetically.

- A Romulan counterattack would, hypothetically, be disastrous, not just for the Federation and Klingons but for Romulus as well.

- Quite possibly, yes. Or, it could finally open the doors for Romulan dominance of the Alpha Quadrant. We would hardly wish to shirk away from such an opportunity, hmm?

- And were anyone to get in the way of the Romulan Empire fulfilling its glorious purpose, well… They would meet a not-so-pleasant fate, I am sure.

- Going to war with the Federation and the Romulans over a skirmish is a fool’s errand, Martok. We cannot allow ourselves to put the entire quadrant at risk.

- What we cannot do is allow such blatant transgressions to go unpunished. No, Commander. The time for peaceful discussion has long since passed.

- You picked a hell of a time for a social call, Commander. That skirmish in Stellastica damn near sent us to war with the Klingons.

- That is exactly what we have come to discuss, Admiral. Starfleet cannot be allowed to be pulled into war.

- Dialogue
- On that, we agree, but it’s not like we’re being given much choice. If Gowron wants to poke the bear, he’s damn sure going to get the claws.

- I understand, Admiral. However, there are extenuating circumstances that you really should–

- Dialogue
- I don’t have time for this. We’ve got Klingon birds-of-prey breathing down our necks on the neutral zone and the Tal goddamn Shiar poking around New Vulcan.

- So you’ll pardon my being curt when I tell you, if you aren’t here to be useful, get the hell out of my way.

- I have never known the Admiral to be so bullish. Could he also be experiencing symptoms of this same derangement that we’ve come across?

- Regardless, we cannot allow a war to break out. Chancellor Gowron is unlikely to listen to reason. However, General Martok has proven to be a patient, logical leader. We may be able to reach him.
