- Well? Did it work?

- The mines are our priority right now. The surge seems to have ionized the raw Ore within. Perhaps we could use the Commander’s Σ-Dilithium stores to neutralize the charge and stabilize the mines.

- Dialogue
- The subspace surges are becoming increasingly frequent, and they seem to be causing the central anomaly to grow. On a positive note, your research has helped us develop a method to combat them.

- Dialogue
- Our field tests show that limiting dark energy output in the early stages can stop a surge in its tracks. I am transporting three devices over to your ship, Commander. We’re calling them surge capacitors.

- Well, as I said, we can’t catch them all. There are two predicted surges that you can reasonably get to in time.
- Objective ID

- Character
- Bristow
- Dialogue
- One is in a mining system that will likely become unstable during the surge. If this happens, the mining colony will face a high loss of life.
- Objective ID

- The other is a key trading outpost in the Veil. There is a smaller risk to life but a larger risk to infrastructure.
