It’s good to see you again, old friend. I’m sorry about the damage to your drone, but I knew that it would be the only way to get your attention. We need your help.

Independent, I’ve read your report. Truly, there are no depths that Soran would not sink to. However, someone here thinks that they may be able to help.

Hello again, Independent. I’ve requested a transfer to your bridge. After hearing about what Soran has done, well… I just can’t stand idly by anymore without trying to help. I hope that’s alright.

You are welcome to board our ship, Romi. Do you have a plan of action in mind?

Character
Romi
Dialogue
As a matter of fact, I do. Captain Picard has informed me of what Soran is doing with these assimilated El-Aurians. There may be a way of severing his ties to this part of the Collective.

Dialogue
I have had prior dealings with a somewhat clandestine organization of individuals who have been previously liberated from the Borg Collective. They call themselves the Ex-Borg.

Character
Romi
Dialogue
An old friend of mine by the name of Somna stands amongst them. I believe that Somna may be able to help us devise a method of severing Soran’s ties with the El-Aurian contingent of the Borg Collective.

Romi
Dialogue
But first, we’re going to need samples of debris from one of their ships so that Somna may study them. If you can collect some samples from the ship you just destroyed, I’ll prepare myself for departure.

That should be all of the dilithium you need.

Dialogue
Thank you, Romi. Give me time to refine the codebase and prepare a means of deploying the virus. We’ll make sure that those who are subjected to it experience no suffering. They’ve already had enough.

Somna
Dialogue
So, let me see if I understand you correctly: A dead El-Aurian has manipulated a Q into creating a closed network that is being used to control an El-Aurian contingent of the Borg Collective?
Objective ID

I know, it’s not the easiest thing to believe. But it is happening. And we need help dealing with it.

Well, there may be something… We’ve been saving this one for an emergency. And if what you’re saying is true, then I think we may have just found said emergency.

We’ve been developing a killswitch virus. One that will propagate throughout the Borg network. In the right hands, it could be a tool of liberation. But in the wrong hands…
Objective ID
1,683,655,360
Phase

Character
Romi
Dialogue
It could be a weapon of mass destruction.

Character
Somna
Dialogue
You have no idea how relieved I am to hear you come to that conclusion yourself. That means I can trust you with this. The El-Aurian contingent could be the perfect testing ground for this virus.

Phase

Character
Somna
Dialogue
But you need to understand one thing, Romi – once their connection to this closed network is severed, these people… their deaths will be inevitable. Are you sure you can do this?

Romi
Dialogue
Regardless of whether they are controlled by this madman Soran or by the Collective themselves, they exist in servitude. I hesitate to even call it living.

As difficult as it may be to be the one responsible for deploying the killswitch virus, the El-Aurian people deserve the peace that was stolen from them.

Somna
Dialogue
Very well… I can put you forward as a trial candidate to deploy the virus, but we’re going to need something in return. Our dilithium reserves are quickly depleting, and we’ll need more soon.

If you can provide 1.5M Dilithium, I’ll make sure that you get what you need.

Commander, our sensors have detected a Borg probe at bearing 124-mark-16. Its current velocity and trajectory suggest that the probe has engaged an intercept vector with our ship.

Dialogue
That’s no ordinary Borg probe… The Ex-Borg command a fleet of unmanned drones that were reclaimed from the Collective. They use them to scare off interlopers and other undesirables.

Destroy that drone, Independent. That should get their attention.

The Ex-Borg base of operations is located in the Ch'urux Qorva system. We should make our way there at once.
