Culture is a thing of change, Nirang. It evolves, and it grows. You are correct that irrationality changed our ways, but we had already been changing long before that.

Dialogue
Humans were kind to accept our ways, which allowed us to move forward together. Without their deep emotional nature, we would be stuck, torn apart like before the Time of Awakening.

But they are angry, deceitful, and impulsive!

Dialogue
They are. But they are also compassionate, kind, and joyful. Their attunement to their inner selves complements rationality. Where we struggle to see beyond logic, their hearts guide us.

They mended our relationship with the Andorians. They helped us restore contact with the Arkonians… Speaking of which, are you aware which Vulcan survey ship they were expecting?

Given the timing, it should arrive soon.

You are correct – a Vulcan vessel is warping into the system. Its identification codes are identical to… T'Plana-Hath.

We should hide before they see us, or our interaction could cause a temporal paradox.

We can conceal our ship’s activity by using 8B Parsteel to build a signal interference field.

T'Plana-Hath is making its way to Nirang’s point of contact with Arkonians. We were not noticed.

Dialogue
Arkonians confused me with T'Plana-Hath then? What are they doing here? Was it not en route for a routine flyby through the Sol system?

Dialogue
It was. And yet, it seems that not all of the history has been duly recorded. Commander, can we access T'Plana-Hath’s internal communications?

Affirmative. Patching through…

Captain, the Arkonian contacts are not here, but I detect some debris in the area. Should we wait for them? Perhaps… something happened?

Character
T'Plana-Hath Helm
Dialogue
No. We have followed the warp signal, but since they are not present, we should count it as an error. Besides, we have another routine check to complete. Helm, hold course to Sol.

Do you want us to follow T'Plana-Hath, Professor?

I would like that, Commander. It is not every day a historian can witness the event they dedicated their career to.

Nirang has been found, Commander – your job is complete, and with excellent results. You can release her from the brig. I believe she has understood the impact of her actions.

You should consider that my actions enabled First Contact.

Perhaps, but you are still to face the consequences of your actions – even if they left no mark.

Good luck trying to prove this, Professor.

We will depart soon – I will meet you on my ship, Nirang. And Commander, I am very grateful for your help. Today, you have witnessed history. Or, perhaps, even made it. Farewell.

The temporal vortex is still active, Commander, but it is dissipating fast. Passing through it…

We are through. Analyzing quantum signature… We are back to where we started. Detecting no temporal changes to our universe.

And just in time – the temporal vertex has disappeared. You should dispose of the device, Commander, so that nobody else might travel to the past.

Perhaps, you might want to keep it, Nirang, as a memento of your adventure.

I might like that. Thank you.

Captain, our computer has alerted us to an active warp signal originating from the Sol system. Humans have just completed their first warp-speed flight!

Spectacular. First Officer, prepare our protocols for the First Contact event. Prepare to land.

T'Plana-Hath is moving towards Bozeman, Montana. First Contact will soon be initiated.

Is that… the Enterprise in Earth’s orbit?

Character

Dialogue
Seems like Zefram Cochrane was not making things up during his speech – “a battle in the skies over Bozeman” did actually happen. That means you were not the first one to alter the past, Nirang.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Nirang
Dialogue
Because I traveled to the past, and you destroyed the Arkonian ships protecting me, T'Plana-Hath has not engaged with them and changed their course to Sol. So, if it was not for me…
Objective ID
713,850,444
Phase

Character
T'lir
Dialogue
…then First Contact would not have happened. Life is ironic at times. So, I should thank you for your youthful radicality. It made our current history with Humans possible.

You should thank yourself for following me, even when I betrayed your teachings.

What is past is past. The equilibrium is restored. We are ready to go back to our time, Commander.

Our best option for returning is to use Nirang’s device again. Heading to Baelos immediately.
