Brem! Were you there the whole time?

Brem
Dialogue
Of course. I followed you through the blockade. Once the Orion saw me, he put two and two together and hightailed it after you, leaving the way open for me.

I didn’t even plan that bit, that was just serendipity.

So you admit that you set us up.

No! Is that how you see it? I carefully orchestrated and executed a sensitive operation. With your help, of course. Now, we had spoken about a reward.

It’s making its way to your cargo hold as we speak. We take care of our allies, and you have proven yourself very useful. The Consortium may call upon you again.

Until then, Independent.

You followed us?

Obviously. Had a gut feeling, and I was right. There’s no refugee encampment down there. Your story was bogus.

What are the chances that I’ll find our stolen cargo down there?
Objective ID

We were not made aware that it was stolen. The Ferengi manipulated us.

You had ample time to come clean at the blockade. Now your time has run out.

The Ferengi ship has been disabled.

Dialogue
I seem to have underestimated you, Independent. You are skilled in battle and you have the instincts of a Ferengi. The Consortium would put someone like you to good use.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
Flattery will get you nowhere. We are keeping the goods.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Brem
Dialogue
It was worth a try… But I meant what I said. The Consortium takes care of its allies. You do not want to be our enemy. We will forgive this transgression, but think twice before you cross us a second time.

Think twice before you manipulate and lie to us.

Touché. I have a feeling I’ll be seeing you again, Independent. Until then.

Brem! What are you doing here?

Brem

Looking for you. I followed you through the blockade. Once the Orion saw me, he put two and two together and hightailed it after you, leaving the way open for me.

I take it he didn’t manage to catch up with you.

No. But you did.
Objective ID

Character
Brem
Dialogue
Yes, well, imagine my surprise when I got to the drop point and you weren’t there. Worse, the cargo wasn’t there. I came here hoping you jumped the gun.
Objective ID

Phase

Brem
Dialogue
A rookie move, Independent. You should know better. Never try to fence hot goods. Let them cool down a little first.
Objective ID

Noted.

Now, I’ll be taking back what’s mine.

Dialogue
The Orions have set up a blockade up ahead, as Brem said. They are waving us forward.
Objective ID
1,498,368,615
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
Very well. Given the nature of this cargo, it may be unwise to keep it aboard our ship for too long. We should offload it. The nearest trade station is in Ro'Antcha. We may be able to find a fence there.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Brem
Dialogue
Hey, Independent. How would you like to take on a job for the Ferengi Consortium? I’ll make it worth your time.
Objective ID
1,647,937,397
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
What would this job involve?
Objective ID
1,647,937,397
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Brem
Dialogue
Just transporting some cargo for me. I have some time-sensitive business I need to attend to, so I can’t make the journey myself.
Objective ID
1,647,937,397
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
Very well. Where should we bring the cargo?
Objective ID
1,647,937,397
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Brem
Dialogue
To Oraalen. You’ll have to go through the Crossroads to get there. Watch out for the Orions – they’re running a racket there. Stopping traders and seizing their goods. Awful business.
Objective ID
1,647,937,397
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Brem
Dialogue
They shouldn’t bother you too much, but if they do, keep your mouth shut about me. Those lobe-lacking brutes have a vendetta against the Consortium.
Objective ID
1,647,937,397
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
Understood.
Objective ID
1,647,937,397

Character

Dialogue
Good. Beaming the cargo over… On your way, Independent. We don’t have all day.

Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
What should we do?
Objective ID
936,870,209
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
That is the sensible choice. We will deliver the cargo to the drop point, then. Initiating transport…
Objective ID
970,113,986
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Maia
Dialogue
This is where Brem indicated we should deliver the goods. The drop point is an abandoned factory on the fringes of the colony below.
Objective ID
970,113,986
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Maia
Dialogue
I have reason to believe that this cargo was stolen from the Orions, Commander. The blockade in the Crossroads is not a racket, it is an attempt by the Orions to catch the Ferengi in the act.
Objective ID
970,113,986
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Maia
Dialogue
It seems that this cargo is quite valuable. Perhaps it is in our best interests to keep it. The Ferengi cannot bring us to task over stolen goods, after all.
Objective ID
970,113,986
Phase
dialogue_end
Character
Maia
Dialogue
Or perhaps it is better not to make unnecessary enemies. Brem promised us a reward for the job, so it will be worth our while either way.
Objective ID

Character
Tasim
Dialogue
Good day, Independent. What brings you to these parts?
Objective ID
970,113,986
Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
We are just passing through, on our way to Oraalen.
Objective ID
970,113,986
Phase

Character
Tasim
Dialogue
What about your cargo? Anything to declare there?
Objective ID
970,113,986
Phase

Character
Maia
Dialogue
Only… supplies bound for a Thalloran encampment.
Objective ID
970,113,986
Phase

Character
Tasim
Dialogue
Did you come across any Ferengi ships on your way here?
Objective ID
970,113,986
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
Ferengi ships? Negative.
Objective ID
970,113,986
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Tasim
Dialogue
Better off. I’m sure they’d love to get their hands on a big supply drop like that. They have very sticky fingers, Ferengi.
Objective ID
970,113,986
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Maia
Dialogue
Is that so?
Objective ID
970,113,986
Phase

Character
Tasim
Dialogue
Sure is… Well, everything seems to check out here. Off you go, Independent.
