Target acquisition is successful. Scans of the surface yield no lifesigns – the site is fully automated. Standby for payload deployment.

Orbital strike confirmed. The outpost has been destroyed. We must flee this system before our presence here is noticed and our identities are uncovered. Laying in an escape course.

Dialogue
So you were able to retrieve the Defiant from the Alliance? You may have been able to impress Smiley, but that’s as easily said as it is done. I, on the other hand, am still not convinced.

How can we convince you that our allegiance with Empress Nerys is a cover?

Julian Bashir
Dialogue
If you want me to believe that you’re not in bed with the Empire, then you’re going to have to strike out against them. And I have the perfect opportunity for you to do just that.

Dialogue
There’s an automated Terran outpost in Alpha Centauri that the Empress relies on in order to receive intel from outlying star systems. I want you to perform a strike on the outpost from orbit and destroy it.

Dialogue
The outpost is entirely automated. There should be no feet on the ground and, as such, no Terran casualties should be incurred during the operation.

Dialogue
We may oppose the appointment of a Bajoran ruler, but we haven’t entirely lost our minds. Prevention of any harm befalling our Terran brothers and sisters remains one of our priorities.

Surely you are aware that if we perform this task and if it is witnessed by any Terrans, then our true intentions will be revealed to the Empress?

Well, it’s either that or I’ll have you shot where you stand in order to keep the location of our headquarters a secret. The choice is yours.

Very well. We will undertake this operation if it means gaining the trust of the Resistance.

I knew you’d see sense. Well, what are you waiting for? You’re going into this one all alone, Independent. The coordinates of the outpost have been transmitted to your bridge. Get moving.

Visual confirmation of Phainon has been acquired, Commander. However, there appears to be an issue with the intel provided by the Resistance.

The system is teeming with Terran activity. Any attempts to conduct an orbital strike will be immediately intercepted.

We may have no other alternative but to clear the vicinity of Terran vessels. I will assure that our targeting exclusively impacts navigation and communication systems.

If we are quick enough, we may be able to conduct this operation without our identity being ascertained by the Terran forces. Prepare to engage.

Well, look at that. You actually managed to make it out of there in one piece without a fleet of Terran ships following you back here. Consider me impressed.

I’d take that as a compliment, Independent. Old Julian here isn’t so easily impressed.

It looks like the Independent really is on our side. With their current standing as Terran Champion, this provides the Resistance with unprecedented access to intel straight from the throne room.

Combine that with the military intel available to us from our kindly benefactor, and it’s starting to look like the odds are tipping into our favor.

I suppose you’ve earned the right to an introduction at this point. Independent, allow me to introduce you to the one man who is going to turn the tide in this fight against the Empress.

Captain Picard? Your involvement with the Resistance is most unexpected. Why did you not vouch for us, or inform the Resistance of our prior dealings with one another?

I had to be certain that your motivations and interests remained aligned with our own. I could not guarantee that you had not been corrupted by such an esteemed position in the Empress’ regime.

However, now that you have proven that you remain uncorrupted by power and influence, I know without a shadow of doubt that you are one to be trusted.

With the Terran Resistance Forces at our side, we will remove that Bajoran usurper from the throne and restore order to the Empire!

Target eliminated. In light of the restrictions of this operation including minimizing harm to Terran forces, we must ensure that Bashir and O’Brien do not learn of this encounter.

You! I thought I recognized that ship of yours. Would you care to tell me why the Empress’ Champion is laying waste to Terran infrastructure?

You are mistaken. We have done no such thing. The Empress will not take kindly to such accusations being laid on her Champion. I suggest that you alter course and leave us at once.

That’s a risk I’m willing to take. We’ll see what Empress Nerys has to say about this.
