No, thankfully we are all unharmed. However, our shuttle is in need of repair and we lack the necessary resources. Do you perchance have a sizable cache of Tritanium on board?

That Nausicaan almost destroyed our shuttle – the damage is significant. We would need 120M Tritanium in order to facilitate a complete repair of the shuttle’s hull.

Commander, preliminary scans of the vicinity have detected a potentially hostile Nausicaan vessel. They have locked targets on our ship. They must be aware of our intervention.

Given the urgency of the situation, I would suggest a pre-emptive strike. It is wise that we intervene before the Nausicaan has a chance to react.

Admiral, the Commander and their counterpart have proven themselves to be trusted allies. I believe they may be able to provide further assistance in the coming mission, should they be so inclined.

Don’t worry yourself, Commander. Our intentions are entirely diplomatic. In fact, I think today could be a wonderful day for the Federation as a whole.

Recently, our excursions into the fringes of the galaxy have yielded some fascinating observations. Particularly within the Baelos system.

Dialogue
Baelos itself is no secret to the Federation, with Baelos Prime being home to a simple, primitive race who do not possess the technology or intelligence to achieve warp capability… or so we thought.

Dialogue
We have no idea how they’ve done it, but the advances in Baelosian technology have been staggering in the last few years.

Dialogue
Their accomplishments in recent years should have taken centuries given our current understanding. It defies logic in the most fascinating way, and the Federation would like to know more about them.

Our intelligence suggests that the Baelosians have recently achieved warp capability, which marks an important milestone – not only for the Baelosians, but also for the Federation.

Character

Dialogue
Our envoy’s purpose in Baelos is to formally reach out to the Baelosians on behalf of the Federation. It is our hope that they would see fit to join us. In theory, this should be a mutually beneficial proposition.

There is only one way to prove this theory, Admiral. We will help you reach out to the Baelosians.

The business that takes us here today is of the utmost importance. We cannot risk a potential reprisal from Nausicaan raiders upsetting the delicate process we are about to undertake.

Dialogue
I believe we should postpone this mission until we are certain that the Nausicaans have relented. In light of this, I would request that you escort our shuttle back to the Starfleet outpost on Blumenth.

I am picking up signs of a Federation shuttle on the surface of Xasek. It would appear that the envoy was forced to engage an emergency landing during the Nausicaan attack.
