This system is ideal – it is not under the control of any major house, and does not see much ship traffic.

Well then, we shall have to make them understand that it is in their best interests to pursue their banditry elsewhere.

That is a risk we will have to take, Commander. Data, is the signal masked?

Then proceed, Number One.

The decision, I fear, is not Starfleet’s to make. This is a Klingon artifact, and it shall be entrusted to a Klingon.

Kadio, Captain. You honor me.

I hope that you honor your people by ensuring that the desire to possess an artifact of Kahless doesn’t lead to the spilling of more Klingon blood.

I will. If I can enlist the Enterprise’s help, I know that I cannot fail.

You need simply ask.

General Martok
Dialogue
Very well. I would like to set up a place to house this artifact, somewhere that is easily defensible but maybe in time could be opened to the public.

Like a sort of museum?

Exactly like a museum. Somewhere the Ma’Staka can be preserved, protected and admired – from a distance.

Character
William Riker
Dialogue
This might suit our purposes… The only people who pass through here are bandits, and I’m sure we can persuade them to leave, if only while we take care of the Ma’Staka.

Make it so!

General Martok

Yes, this will serve nicely. A Klingon museum… What a proposition! And yet I believe that it could be quite happily situated on Vi’ir.

Then we entrust it to you, General Martok, in the hopes that this piece of history will bring the Klingon people together, rather than driving them apart as it once did.

Captain’s Log, Stardate 41253.6. The geological surveys have confirmed the existence of large amounts of explosive ores and minerals in the planetoid.

Starfleet has staked an official claim on it and introduced a security presence to protect its interests in the system. We have faced little local opposition so far.

Word has spread within the Klingon Empire that the Ma’Staka’s is in General Martok’s possession, though to date he has been successful in protecting it.

A small band of Klingons has formed to help him keep it safe. It gives me hope that the circle of bloodshed surrounding this artifact is finally coming to an end.

The Klingon Empire appreciates your efforts on its behalf, Captain. Should you ever wish to visit the Ma’Staka yourself, you would be most welcome.

I will not have the blood of Klingons on my hands, General. I appreciate your intentions, but I fear that this artifact is beyond you or I.

I believe the best course is to keep the Ma’Staka hidden, like the descendent of Kahless asked.

Very well, Captain. I understand, though I do not agree.

We will take our leave of you, General, and find a place where this artifact can be relegated to safe obscurity.

So, somebody did talk! Dishonorable petaQ! When this is over, I will–

Enough, Commander Worf. The threat has been neutralized for now.

For now… If word has spread that we are in possession of an artifact from the time of Kahless, that will not be the last collector to come knocking.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
General Martok
Dialogue
An artifact of Kahless the Great himself? Just what exactly did you find, Worf?
Objective ID
771,331,730
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Worf
Dialogue
A Ma’Staka. One we believe was used against the Great Kahless and Lady Lukara as they stood against Molor’s troops. The Ma’Staka which started the tradition that is still alive today.

Very.

This is the greatest cultural find since the Fornication Helmet!

Character
Worf
Dialogue
… Indeed.
Objective ID
771,331,730
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Jean Luc Picard
Dialogue
That, General Martok, is exactly the conundrum. The artifact’s cultural significance is not in doubt. The problem is that the Ma’Staka has a gravitational field of violence.
Objective ID
771,331,730
Phase

Character
General Martok
Dialogue
But perhaps it needn’t. In the right hands, it could be a symbol of Klingon heritage, open to all Klingons and not held by any one hand.
Objective ID

Character
Jean Luc Picard
Dialogue
How could that be achieved?
Objective ID

If we can find a safe place to house the artifact, I will make sure that it is safe from greedy hands.

Data
Dialogue
The Ma’Staka was buried by one of Kahless’ own descendents. It should remain hidden, like they requested. It is statistically likely that revealing it will lead to the same bloodshed as before.

We have unearthed something of great importance to the Empire, General. Or great danger, depending on how you look at it.

Oh, but I do mind! Rumor has it you have something aboard that ship. Something I am very interested in acquiring. And money is no object, I’ll have you know.
