Dialogue
It will take time, Torth, but I see no reason why our respective races cannot move on from this and find a way to coexist.

Character
Torth
Dialogue
It will be difficult, Captain. My people will be reluctant. I am reluctant. Everything about you and the way you live fills us with abhorrence, a deep, profound loathing that…
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Picard
Dialogue
Yes, yes, Torth, we get the picture. But that is something you will need to deal with.
Objective ID

That, and the vengeance of your people.

It’s true that there is much anger out there towards you. And understandably so. However, there is a solution.

I suspect I shall not like it.

We grant you preliminary Federation status. That will put you under our protection.

What?
Objective ID
1,117,175,310
Phase

Character
Torth
Dialogue
Ah. Yes. I see the logic in what you suggest. The logic and my culture’s greatest fear realized. Ultimately we are to be absorbed into your… your hegemony of the diverse. Subject to your laws.

The choice is yours.
Objective ID

Commander Novem
Dialogue
Picard, this is unacceptable. The Torvath are the enemy! I know the Senate. They will see this as a betrayal.

Romulans see everything as a betrayal.

There is no choice. We submit to your jurisdiction.

Excellent. Then…
Objective ID
1,117,175,310
Phase

Character
Commander Novem
Dialogue
Captain Picard, there is… concern amongst some of the Romulans in the fleet. They wish to punish the Torvath for their fallen comrades, not help them add to Federation numbers.
Objective ID
1,117,175,310
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Picard
Dialogue
Commander Novem, the Torvath are now a galactic target with an extremely exploitable vulnerability. This is the only way.
Objective ID
1,117,175,310
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Commander Novem
Dialogue
Captain, one of our ships has broken away and is heading right for you. I believe the crew wishes to make an example of you. I will not open fire on one of our own, so It is up to you to deal with it.
Objective ID
1,117,175,310
Phase

Character
Commander Novem
Dialogue
However, I will at least remove the rest of my people from this sector, before the situation worsens. Farewell, Captain. Good luck with your new… allies.

Picard
Dialogue
Do you see, Torth? The unity you fear, it is not something easily won. You have to fight for it, every day, because that’s how important it is. That’s how much it is worth.

Character
Picard

Alright, it was always on the cards that the Romulans would return to their own devices once the battle was won. I suppose some friendships are harder to forge than others.
Objective ID
1,732,528,285
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Picard
Dialogue
It is perhaps early days to describe the relationship between the Federation and Klingons and the Torvath as a friendship. A lot of blood has been spilled, a lot of hatred expressed.
Objective ID
1,732,528,285
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Picard
Dialogue
But what we have here at the very least is a start. An opportunity.
Objective ID
1,732,528,285
Phase

Character
Picard
Dialogue
When humanity first began its journey out amongst the stars, we knew it wouldn’t be easy. We were on a mission of exploration, yes, but we were also on a mission to expand our consciousness.
Objective ID
1,732,528,285
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Picard
Dialogue
We discovered that the best way to do that was to meet and learn about other cultures and civilizations. To better understand oneself, one must understand the wider context in which one finds oneself.
Objective ID
1,732,528,285
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Picard
Dialogue
Life is myriad. Life expresses itself in uncountable ways, yet, at its core, it is, still, all life One thing. Not a hegemony of the diverse, as Torth put it, but rather a unity of the diverse.
Objective ID
1,732,528,285
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Picard
Dialogue
The universe is like a complex organism, made up of so many different parts, with wildly different functions, yet all must work together to ensure the wellbeing of the whole.
Objective ID
1,732,528,285
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Picard
Dialogue
Today, we have discovered a new part of ourselves. A difficult part, undoubtedly, a painful part, yet we must strive to accommodate this new part, and the new knowledge it brings.
Objective ID
1,732,528,285
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Picard
Dialogue
To deny it, is to deny ourselves, to cut ourselves off from growth and evolution, from a greater understanding of who we are and what our place is in the great mysterious infinity of space.
Objective ID
1,732,528,285
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Picard
Dialogue
It is in our nature to reach for the stars. We do not turn away from them. So, let us not turn away from the Torvath.
Objective ID
1,732,528,285
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Picard
Dialogue
Let us instead move on in forgiveness and comprehension. Let us ensure that the body remains whole, and strong, and healthy, so that we may go forward and discover even more about ourselves.

Well, here we are again, Will. A moment of quiet.

Yeah. I think I might just take the time to savor this one.

Oh, I thought you enjoyed being in the middle of the action.

I also like the time to practice my trombone.
Objective ID

Your trombone! Of course, why didn’t I think of that before?

What?
Objective ID
1,988,731,363

We could have used that to subdue the Torvath.

Did we really do the right thing, inviting the Torvath into the Federation?
Objective ID
1,988,731,363
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Picard
Dialogue
People fear what they don’t know, Will, and right now they don’t know the Torvath, and the Torvath don’t know us. What we have now, though, is a chance to change that.
Objective ID
1,988,731,363

A chance to find something… familiar… in the unfamiliar.

Dialogue
Well, we have a peace, albeit an uneasy one.
Objective ID

Uneasy for the Torvath. Either they behave or we burn out their minds with a whistle.
Objective ID

I’d hope that we could all get past that at some point.

I believe I have never encountered anyone so disposed to optimistic proclamations yet be so surgical in battle. I shall miss you, Picard.

Well, we still have that wine to share.

That is very true, my friend. Then let us not wait too long.

Agreed. General, it has been a pleasure and an honor, but we must return to Federation space. We have a lot of reports to make.

So, Doctor, do you have something for us?

You’re in luck, Captain. I think I do.
Objective ID

Phase

Dr Crusher
Dialogue
Honestly, I almost missed it. I carried out a thorough examination of the Torvath’s body, it’s muscles, nerve system, bone structure.
Objective ID

Dr Crusher
Dialogue
Biologically, they have much in common with crustacean life on Earth. And they are incredibly strong.
Objective ID
717,751,754
Phase

Character
Dr Crusher
Dialogue
Face to face, in a physical fight, an average human wouldn’t stand a chance. Even a Vulcan would be hard pressed to come out on top in hand to hand combat. Not that the Torvath have hands as such.

Beverly. You said there was something we could use.
Objective ID
717,751,754
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Dr Crusher
Dialogue
Yes, of course. Sorry. It passed me by first because the Torvath don’t have ears. It was only when I started looking into those senses that I realized the hairs across their body translated vibration into sound.
Objective ID
717,751,754
Phase

Character
Dr Crusher
Dialogue
Those sound receptors are linked to the Torvath nervous system!
Objective ID

You seem excited about something, Doctor, but you’ll need to tell me what.
Objective ID

Dr Crusher

Certain frequencies will cause them a great deal of pain. I’m not sure which ones because the Torvath I was studying was dead. But if we just cycle through the range…
