- I normally advise lesser beings not to provoke the Borg, but in your case, I’m willing to make an exception. Now, all we need to do is figure out where that dreadful noise is coming from.

- That noise indicates that alarms have been raised back at the Station. We are also receiving an incoming transmission. It appears to be originating from the USS Enterprise. Patching through to the bridge.

- Independent, there’s been an incident. The Station has been attacked by Klingon forces. We tried to hold them off but… they’ve breached our defenses. The El-Aurian prisoner has been captured.

- The Enterprise is in close pursuit of the Klingon fleet. If we can keep up with them, we may be able to discover Soran’s hiding place. I’ll keep you posted. Riker out.

- Independent, I wanted to personally thank you for your intervention back in Noakyn. I’ve had a chance to read through your status report. So it’s true… Soran is rebuilding the trilithium weapon.

- I’ve encountered the destructive potential of this weapon once before. Years ago, an old friend was able to help me put a stop to Soran’s plan back on Veridian III. I owe it to him to stop Soran once again.

- Leave the El-Aurian to us, Independent. We’ll make sure that they’re secured in Federation territory. They will stand trial for their crimes. In the meantime, I have another task that requires your attention.

- Dialogue
- If Soran plans on utilizing an El-Aurian Prohibitor-class ship as a mobile platform for his trilithium weapon, then we need to understand those ships – including both their strengths and weaknesses.

- Dialogue
- I want you to travel to Amargosa. Our long-range scans have detected a number of assimilated El-Aurian ships in this sector. They’re nothing more now than assets of the Borg Collective.

- Dialogue
- Find them and engage them. We need to gather combat data from as many of these ships as possible. We must find a critical weakness in the Prohibitor-class if we are to retain any hope of stopping Soran.
