Dah, we present to you the smoldering fragments of one of Clytomenes’ finest mining vessels. Those who survived will know to think twice before returning to the Tal’lah-Hed’s mining fields.

Well look at that… I’m starting to think you enjoy this line of work, Captain. Are you sure you wouldn’t rather turn your back on Starfleet and join us? The Tal’lah-Hed is accepting of all who would join us.

A wise course of action. Captain Pike, we have retrieved several fragments of the mining vessel’s hull.

Alright, looks like we’re ready to get back to Shen Dura. We’ll use these hull fragments as proof that Clytomenes was attacked in the name of the Tal’lah-Hed.

If we can bring fragments of your hull to the people targeting this system as proof that the attack has already occurred, then we may be able to buy time while we attempt to dismantle their operations.

The Tal’lah-Hed are a criminal organization composed mainly of dissidents and exiled offenders from across the Alpha Quadrant. Their primary activities include extortion, kidnapping and grand theft.

While not officially recognized by Starfleet, the group has been operating out of Shen Dura for several years. A number of attempted kidnappings have been reported in and near the Majalan system.

These reports suggest that the group has ramped up their efforts in kidnapping high-profile targets in the hopes of extorting ransoms from a wide array of influential groups and organizations.

Dialogue
The group does not adhere to a traditional hierarchical structure typical to militarized factions. Instead, a chosen ruler fights their way to the top of the pile, becoming what they refer to as the “Dah”.

The Tal’lah-Hed Dah then rules over the rest of the group, imposing their will and dictating the group’s activities and means of survival. The current Dah is an Orion known as Mavery.

I see… It looks like this “Mavery” is using experience from time spent in the Syndicate in order to facilitate these kidnappings.

It was simply horrific. A cold, damp cell in some underground pit. Nothing but bags of spices for sustenance. And they consider that pathetic excuse for a meal nutritious!

Make your way to Clytomenes, and show them that the Dilithium mines now belong to the Tal’lah-Hed! Return to me with proof of your deeds and we’ll discuss the terms of your engineer’s release.
