Hey, what’s the max warp on this bad boy?

Not now, Ven. Any sign of pursuers?

Affirmative. Multiple incoming ship signatures. It appears that they will not give up so easily.

Think we can take them?

We have already defeated one. They seem powerful but disorganized—perhaps we can use their lack of strategy to our advantage.

Wait, you don’t mean–

Yes. We stay and fight. Buckle up. This is going to get bumpy.

Yeah, yeah. A feat of engineering. I’m more interested in who you are and what you’re doing all the way out here.

I’m Ven, nice to meetcha! Who’re you?

We will have to postpone our introduction. Your vessel may have gone unnoticed, but ours has not. Incoming hail. Onscreen now.

Well, that answers my question. We doing this, Commander?

The beacon worked! That was a shot in the dark but boy, am I glad you’re here.

Do you require assistance?

Ven
Dialogue
My ship’s on its last legs. Impulse is shot. This system is full of those… Things, whatever they are. Thought I was a goner, but I seem to have gone under their radar.

Your ship’s barely a ship, that’s why. Surprised you got it off the ground.
Objective ID

Character
Ven
Dialogue
You try getting stranded on a strange planet and making do with wrecks and scraps.
Objective ID

Maia
Dialogue
An admirable effort, but we can beam you aboard our ship and bring you home.

I highly doubt that. But yes, please get me out of here.

Do you know anything about the rally that was taking place on the station?
Objective ID
250,855,987
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Some Aeonians are quite put out by all of the new groups who are flooding into the Margins. Think it’s theirs and theirs alone.
Objective ID

Character
Maia
Dialogue
The ones who settled here centuries ago?
Objective ID
250,855,987
Phase

Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Ironic, isn’t it? They’re not native to this place, but they think they have a greater claim than anyone else. Dislike anyone who doesn’t look like them.

Organics do tend to be quite tribalistic in nature.

Well, not all–
Objective ID

Hold. I am detecting a distress signal nearby.

Dialogue
Let’s check it out. I’m in no rush to get back to Section 31.

The hostile ship has been defeated, but more are converging on our location.

Dialogue
How long?
Objective ID
308,850,374

Minutes.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Enough time to go to warp?
Objective ID

Dialogue
Barely.
Objective ID

Cillian
Dialogue
Then we’ll get away by the skin of our teeth. Go, now!
Objective ID

The originator of the distress signal is up ahead.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Cillian
Dialogue
That pile of junk? Hardly even seems spaceworthy.
Objective ID
454,709,049
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
There are other ships present in the system too. There is something highly unusual about their signatures.
Objective ID
454,709,049
Phase

Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Something to figure out later. Let’s hail the ship in distress.

Dialogue
My favorite watering hole I’ve come across in the Margins. A little more refined than some of the others.

Ven
Dialogue
Ugh! What is this?
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase

Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Whiskey. They don’t serve much else here, but they have whiskey from all over the galaxy.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Ven
Dialogue
Whiskey?
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Yeah, whiskey. You know, uisce beatha? Alcohol, Ven.
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Ven
Dialogue
Why are you drinking it?
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Because it makes you feel good. Then bad… But mostly good.
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase

Character
Ven
Dialogue
You drink disinfectant for fun? This place is even weirder than I thought.
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase

Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Where are you from, then? Must be some far-flung corner of the galaxy. I haven’t seen anyone like you before.
Objective ID

Character
Ven
Dialogue
Well, you wouldn’t have. I’m from a different dimension.
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase

Character
Ven
Dialogue
Is it always this intense up here on the bridge?
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Cillian
Dialogue
On this Independent’s ship, I would say… Yes.
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Ven
Dialogue
I miss the peace of the engine room. Don’t suppose you’re in the market for an engineer, Commander?
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Don’t you want us to take you home?
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Ven
Dialogue
I’m not sure that’s even possible.
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
What do you mean?
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase

Character
Ven
Dialogue
It’s… a long story.
Objective ID
678,246,258
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Well, we’ve had a long day, and I need a drink. A long story’s better told over drinks, anyway. I know just the place.
