Our apologies for intruding. We understand that you have taken up residence here, but we require the use of this communications array.

And lead them right here to us? You’ve got another thing coming, Independent. That’s not gonna happen. Not unless you can assure us that they have been dealt with.

The damned Pakled, that’s who they are. They caught us smuggling in their territory and have been attempting to extort us ever since. We’ve had no choice but to hide from them.

If you can somehow convince an entire fleet of Pakled ships to clear out of the Sauchei system and leave us be, then we’ll be able to leave here and let you have the comms array.

Commander, we should follow up on this request. This comms array may be our only chance to broadcast this signal and free the Baelosians.

Scans of Sauchei have confirmed the presence of several Pakled ships – this must be the fleet that the Yridian spoke of.

If we can clear the Pakled ships out of this system, then the Yridians should relinquish use of the comms array to us.

Lewis, how can we be of assistance? What is your plan?

Lewis
Dialogue
We may be running out of time here, so let’s get straight to it. There’s a disused communication array on Leais, a planet in the Warren system. Our laboratory was situated in an adjacent system.

Dialogue
I heard Section 31 talk about this comms array several times – they seemed to regard it as some type of failsafe and would closely monitor its usage.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Lewis
Dialogue
Last I heard from them, a group of Yridian smugglers had moved in and made the place their own. Section 31 seemed to think they posed no potential threat.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Lewis
Dialogue
I’m convinced that the comms array made them nervous because it’s their killswitch. We also found something else within the Ascendant Project data – some type of transmission.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Lewis
Dialogue
The Project’s data shows that this signal will instantly neutralize the transmitter in a Baelosian’s cortical implant once picked up.

Dialogue
They must have implemented this failsafe in case their plans were ever discovered by Starfleet or other members of the Federation.
Objective ID
1,271,258,242
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Lewis
Dialogue
Precisely. Their intel suggested that the comms array is capable of subspace broadcasts. We’re going to use it to transmit a neutralizing signal that will mitigate the effects of the Baelosian’s cortical implants.

Phase

Character
Lewis
Dialogue
It’s all right here in the Ascendant Project data. We’re going to force their hand and broadcast the killswitch transmission. This should sever the link between Section 31 and the Baelosians.

Phase

Character
Lewis
Dialogue
If you can secure the comms array on Leais, we may have everything we need to loosen Section 31’s grip over the Baelosians once and for all. Head over there and make it happen. We owe this to them.

We are receiving a transmission from Lewis on the surface of Andoreth. Patching it through.

Commander, there’s been a huge breakthrough in our research of the Baelosians and the extent of Section 31’s hold over them.

Lewis
Dialogue
My team is continuing to work diligently on reversing the effects of the gene therapy, but in the meantime, we’ve made a startling discovery while analysing the Ascendant – a cortical implant.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Lewis
Dialogue
While the gene therapy makes each Baelosian susceptible to the will of Section 31, the cortical implants allow them to communicate with any given Baelosian across vast distances.

The implications of this discovery are astounding. Come back to Andoreth as soon as possible. I may have a plan of action.

Hurry, Commander. Agent Holloway is bound to have discovered that the Ascendant is no longer responding. Section 31 will be looking for you.

The remaining Pakled vessels are dispersing, Commander. It should now be safe for the Yridians to come back and resume their operations here.

Yes, Lewis, we have secured the site. The Yridians are still there but they have agreed to allow us use of the comms array.

A hopeful development. It’s all we can ask for right now. Make any necessary preparations and repairs to your fleet, Commander. We have work to do.

Well? You’ve come back in one piece, so I’m assuming it all went well?

The Pakled have dispersed from the Sauchei system. It should be safe for you and your people to return. Just remain vigilant and be sure to retreat if the Pakled return en force.

Wow, you’re efficient! Thank you, Independent. We’ll be out of here soon enough. Although I can’t imagine what you’d want with this old scrap heap.

Commander, we should return to our Station and make necessary repairs after our encounter with the Pakled. We can inform Lewis and his team of the recent developments in the process.
