The Sphere is retreating. There was something strange about those Borg.

The way they spoke. Did you notice?

Janel
Dialogue
None of us have ever encountered these freaks before, Independent. They left us alone. Too busy trying to take over the important bits of the galaxy. They were a distant boogeyman until now.

I’m detecting a distress signal emanating from the Zetehrn system. They’re attacking another colony.

We need to get rid of that damn sphere.

Is that even possible? We did some damage to it, sure, but nowhere near enough to take it down.

The colony below fared far better than we did. They have ships, and they’re already on alert. I’ll get in contact, organize reinforcements.

Be quick about it. Meet us in Zetehrn. We’ll try to hold off the Borg.

We have to do something. We need to head them off before they get any farther. Do you have any idea what would happen if the Borg invaded?

Character
Janel
Dialogue
I know. We’re in no shape to fight them. With all of the chaos around the virus, there’s no way we could fight back. It’d be over before it even starts.

We want to help. What few of us are left, at least.

There was a Borg attack here?

They came out of nowhere and decimated the colony. Took some with them, left more for dead. Few of us survived.

Dialogue
If we don’t do something, all of the Margins will be like this colony. Nothing more than rubble.

How can we help?

We need to track down that sphere. Between us, we have enough ships to stand a chance against it.

Scanning… I am detecting a Borg signature. They made no attempt to mask it.

The people on your colony who were assimilated – were any of them infected with the virus?
Objective ID

Dialogue
Probably. We had an outbreak recently. The patients were quarantined, but– It’s aphasia!

Precisely.

What?
Objective ID
1,913,427,342
Phase

Character
Calhoun
Dialogue
The Independent said the Borg were acting strangely, speaking strangely. They assimilated people suffering from aphasia.
Objective ID
1,913,427,342
Phase

Dialogue
And because they share a consciousness, the entire Collective will be in chaos. We can use this.

They’re almost upon us. What’s the plan?
Objective ID

Dialogue
We spread out, create as many moving targets as possible. Switch your tactics up, people, and don’t fall into patterns. Let’s keep them confused. Engage!

The important thing is that you got here in time to finish it off. We couldn’t have done it alone.

I can’t believe we actually did it.

Too many.

…The distress signal. They were calling for reinforcements.

Is that a Cube? It’s bigger than I thought possible… This is it. There’s no way the Margins can stand against a force like this.

And no colony. Looks like it was waiting for us. I have a bad feeling about this…

Strange… There are faults in the hull. The damage from our last battle has not yet been repaired.

And?

Well, then, we might just survive this fight. Target those weak points!

Now the real work begins. We need to rebuild, make sure we can protect ourselves in the future. Among all that, we need to grieve all the people we lost to the Borg.

Character
Calhoun
Dialogue
You’ve been beyond helpful, Independent, but I wonder if I could ask one more favor. We might have fought off the Borg, but our colony is in ruins. Can you spare some resources to help us rebuild?
Objective ID

90K Σ-Tritanium would get us started.

Looks like they’ve found another colony to destroy.

Not if we have anything to say about it. Spread out, everyone. Surround the Sphere. We can do this!

What the hell is that?

A transwarp corridor. The Cube is retreating, along with the remaining intact ships.

Dialogue
What if they come back?
Objective ID
946,537,140
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
It is unlikely. The Collective will need time to repair the damage caused by the virus. By that time, the Margins might no longer be a desirable target.

Calhoun
Dialogue
We’ll have to make sure it isn’t. But that’s something to be figured out another day. Let’s get back home.
