- Excellent. But I do not need logic to see that our collective shields will not withstand these Neptunian storms for very long.

- She has received a message from the lead Tamarian vessel. It is text only, short, and to the point: “Kayshon is studying Federation Standard at Starfleet Academy.”

- Venturing into the heart of a Tamarian-speaking Federation, following our battle with the Cerritos, is perhaps not the most logical choice.

- But if command has taught me anything, it is that logic alone is insufficient in a galaxy, nay a multiverse, filled with possibilities. My crew is ready, Commander.

- Then let us approach discreetly. I recommend we enter into a low orbit of Neptune. Its offset magnetosphere and anticyclonic storms should shield us from detection.

- Dialogue
- They are a secretive race who, in our universe, only made contact with the Federation in recent history. Initial interactions were… problematic, and rife with misunderstandings.

- Their language, as you may have deduced, is composed of figurative references to people and places from their history and mythology. Much like idioms, without context, the phrases appear meaningless.

- They are evidently dealing with a bandit problem. Perhaps we could show them that we are not a threat – and certainly not bandits – by helping to drive them out?
