I am sorry for what happened with Dalen. He did not deserve to die that way.

I am also sorry for letting him take my ship. He caught me off guard after the unassimilation process.

I will need to go into hiding for now. The… unwanted attention that we have garnered along the way has made things difficult.

All my data and equipment will be left with a Romulan named Maiek. If you need further help studying the Borg, he will be willing to help. Seek him out.

Even though Shiio is leaving, and Dalen is deceased, we have no time to grieve or reflect. As Shiio said, there are still many battles to be fought.

All I wanted was for you to understand what I was doing! I was trying to bring all organic life to the next stage of evolution.

We tried to understand you, Dalen. We protected you from Starfleet and others. Letting you die now would have meant all that work was done in vain.

That wasn’t your choice to make. You stole my life from me, so now I will take yours!

Like I said, I have a theory. I am not very good at articulating my process, it is best if I just put my plan into action.

No… Don’t.

Dalen, you cannot survive much longer in this condition. I can undo enough of the assimilation to help you survive.

And then I will no longer be a Borg.

Character
Shiio
Dialogue
Dalen, you’re not a Borg now! You think for yourself and act for yourself! Being part of the Borg is not about the technology, it’s about the subservience!

I am a Borg! I went through everything they went through. The only reason I was able to cling to my lucidity was because of my eyepiece.

The Borg didn’t remove it. It anchored me to my humanity, even during the assimilation process.

That’s my point exactly. You can’t be part of the Borg, because there is still humanity in you.

Commander, I am begging you. Do not unassimilate me. This is what I am supposed to be.

Dalen
Dialogue
In death, you can study me. Find weakness in the Borg. If I’m unassimilated, then yes, I might survive. But all this will be for nothing. All those who died… it will be for nothing.

I have no oath, so I am under no obligation to save him. It is your decision, Commander.

Is there anything we can do?
Objective ID

Shiio
Dialogue
I have an idea. More of a theory. It may allow me to undo the process of assimilation just enough to save Dalen’s life.

You’re in exile from the Romulans. How much equipment could you possibly have?

We will reconvene once the procedure is finished, Commander. Dalen will need some time to adjust.
