- Commander, I heard about your little escapade to the Swarm nest. From the report Jaylah gave me, it sounds like destroying the nest messed with the Swarm’s targeting. Any truth to that?
- Objective ID

- Character
- Maia
- Dialogue
- That is true, Montgomery. The vessels had a targeting calibration that was being amplified by a signal from the nest. Disrupting that signal caused the ships to lose targeting temporarily.

- This is all just theory, and still needs to be tested. As it happens, the Enterprise picked up a scattered Swarm signal in Alpha Horunia, which matches the frequency of the signal you found.
