Dialogue
You wish to meet with the Tholians? Very well. However, we must first ensure that we are capable of conversing with them. Their strange language has yet to be fully translated.

That will not be an issue. My advanced translation protocols will allow me to tune our universal translator to their frequencies.

That is… very impressive. Such technology could revolutionize galactic diplomacy.

Perhaps. For now, however, we should make our way to the Tholian embassy.

This is merely a relay. The signal does not originate from here.
Objective ID

Character

Dialogue
This relay is receiving signals from fifteen points throughout the Origin Sector, all of them matching the wavelength identifiers of our mystery frequency.

Dialogue
Someone has gone to quite a bit of effort to mask the origins of this signal. What could its purpose possibly be?
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
Perhaps it is broadcasting some kind of code; a cypher to be used for combat coordination.
Objective ID

Character
Velkas
Dialogue
If that’s true, then either the Tholians or the Breen planned this battle. If we can discover who planted these relays…

We may find the side responsible for breaking the ceasefire.
Objective ID

Then, our next task is to speak with either side. Who should we approach first, Commander?
Objective ID

Maia
Dialogue
Velkas, we are picking up a signal. Frequency 3.2khz, unencrypted. It is being broadcast over local subnet channels.
Objective ID
1,550,198,523
Phase

Character
Velkas
Dialogue
Yes, I am receiving it as well. It appears to be some kind of feedback or background frequency. Checking my comm logs, now.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Velkas
Dialogue
Hmm. The signal began broadcasting approximately four hours ago.
Objective ID
1,550,198,523

Maia
Dialogue
That matches our closest estimate as to when this battle started.
Objective ID
1,550,198,523
Phase

Character
Velkas
Dialogue
I do not find it likely that this is a coincidence. We may be able to trace the source of the signal by isolating its wavelength identifiers.
Objective ID
1,550,198,523

Character
Maia
Dialogue
Done. The signal appears to be broadcasting from this very system.

Fascinating. We may be onto something here. Lead the way, Commander.

Something is off, Commander. The peace talks were going well. There is no good reason for this… brutality.

We have no other choice. We must halt this conflict at the source.

As much as it pains me to say… We cannot prevent this conflict. We can only hope to stop this madness before it consumes the entire Sector.

The Breen deceivers broke our agreement. The Assembly does not forgive deception! By attacking our diplomatic fleet, they have secured their own destruction!
