Look, I haven’t been able to get my hands on these kinds of specialized parts for a while. I custom-built those myself… And the first thing you do is go and break them.

Yeah, sorry about that.

I can maybe fix them for you, but it wouldn’t be fast.

What parts are these, exactly?

Well, I can make you a list, but I don’t think you’re gonna have much luck finding ‘em.

Don’t you worry. I’ve been jerry-rigging astrometric equipment on a shoestring budget for a long time.

Maybe it’s best to just wait for the thing to be fixed properly.

Derwin
Dialogue
No. The surges, the dimensional anomaly – they’re destroying the Margins. We need to figure this out quickly. I, for one, am not willing to wait.

Ven
Dialogue
He’s right. Besides, you’ve got an engineer here, too. If Derwin can find parts that work, we can fix it ourselves.

Yes, well… Indeed.

The last ship has been destroyed.

Cillian
Dialogue
That’s great, but we have another problem.
Objective ID
1,317,623,320
Phase

Character
Derwin
Dialogue
We didn’t take a direct hit, but some shrapnel hit the graviton condenser.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Ven
Dialogue
I take it that’s bad.
Objective ID
1,317,623,320
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
Of course it’s bad! We can’t measure a gravitational anomaly without a graviton condenser.
Objective ID
1,317,623,320
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Ven
Dialogue
But we already got the data, right?
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
We were unable to establish the connection before we engaged with the Surgewalkers.
Objective ID
1,317,623,320
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
Bingo. We have whatever this equipment’s built-in storage was able to take – a small fraction of what was being captured.
Objective ID
1,317,623,320
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Ven
Dialogue
Well, it’s something, right?
Objective ID
1,317,623,320
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
It’s almost nothing. It’s not good enough.
Objective ID
1,317,623,320
Phase

Character
Ven
Dialogue
Ok, so we try again. Maybe we can get this fixed.
Objective ID

Cillian
Dialogue
Worth a try. Let’s go back to the vendor. He’s our best bet.

This is… unsettling.

Character
Cillian
Dialogue
I think I’m getting seasick…
Objective ID
1,543,711,949
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
I told you. The subspace agitations are causing ripples in the fabric of spacetime. It’s about to start.
Objective ID
1,543,711,949
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
Then we should set up the equipment.
Objective ID
1,543,711,949
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Cillian
Dialogue
What about that planet? It’s close, but not close enough for the surge to destabilize the equipment.
Objective ID

Ven
Dialogue
You hope. Commander, beam us down, and we can–

Dialogue
You can stay here. Cillian and I will set up the equipment.
Objective ID

Cillian
Dialogue
Erm… Two to beam down, then.
Objective ID

The equipment has been calibrated. We need to establish a connection to your onboard computer so we can–
Objective ID

Character
Maia
Dialogue
I am detecting massive energy spikes. The surge is beginning.
Objective ID

Ven
Dialogue
It’s… beautiful.
Objective ID

Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Commander? We need to… Oh f–
Objective ID
177,286,242
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
Multiple ships are coming through the surge.
Objective ID
177,286,242
Phase

Character
Ven
Dialogue
Well, chances were some of these guys were going to show up.
Objective ID
177,286,242
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
They are on an intercept course.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Are we ever going to get around to the job at hand?
Objective ID
1,813,501,809
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
Right… We caught some gravimetric spikes on the monitor. Nearer than any we’d seen before. I figured this must be an early sign of a surge.
Objective ID
1,813,501,809
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
You went to investigate.
Objective ID
1,813,501,809
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
None of the others would come along. Afraid to risk their necks, but I wanted to see this thing up close. And I knew that our benefactor wanted that data.
Objective ID
1,813,501,809
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
I got there right as the surge was happening. It was like an eruption – subspace contorting and expanding until it finally tore right open.
Objective ID
1,813,501,809
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
I was capturing the whole thing, but our science vessel isn’t built to measure that degree of energy. The instruments were malfunctioning, and the readings made no sense.
Objective ID
1,813,501,809
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
I was trying to calibrate them when ships started to come through. I knew I had to get out of there before they got their bearings.
Objective ID
1,813,501,809
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Cillian
Dialogue
But they followed you back to the station.
Objective ID
1,813,501,809
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
They did. And that’s where you came in.
Objective ID
1,813,501,809
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
Can you take us back to the site of the surge?
Objective ID

Inputting the coordinates.
Objective ID

Phase

Maia
Dialogue
One of the hostile ships has broken away from the rest and is on an intercept course to the planet.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Ven
Dialogue
How did they… Never mind. Let’s get them before they get our guys. Cillian, Derwin, take cover!
Objective ID

Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Ven
Dialogue
Nothing here now.
Objective ID
698,517,412
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
Well, of course not. The surge is over.
Objective ID
698,517,412
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
Perhaps we can still take some scans. There is likely some residual–
Objective ID
698,517,412
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
We could do that, or we could go where the action is. See that spike on long-range sensors?
Objective ID
698,517,412
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Cillian
Dialogue
You think that’s an early sign of another surge?
Objective ID
698,517,412
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Derwin
Dialogue
It matches the pattern I noticed back at the station.
Objective ID
698,517,412
Phase

Character
Cillian
Dialogue
Well, only one way to find out.
