Mission Dialogue

Sarett: <race specific> vessel. This is Lieutenant Sarett of the Terran Outsider Security control. You have illegally breached our shield and entered a highly restricted area. Your ship is surrounded and will be held here for questioning.

Sarett: Do not attempt to resist.
No need. We have accomplished what we set out to do.

Sarett: Oh, did you? If that is indeed true, you've gone to a great deal of trouble destroying that facility for nothing. You haven't the faintest idea what we're planning.
What do you intend to do with our ships?

Sarett: You will all be quarantined until an inquisitor arrives. Your ships will, of course, be searched and all data seized.
You know that we cannot allow that.

Sarett: In your current situation, just continuing to breathe the air from your bridge is a luxury. You don't have the option to refuse.
You'll get nothing from me.

Sileena: Commander. Sorry to interrupt.
Sileena!? Where are you?

Sileena: I don't have much time. I have a means of escape, but we need to act now.
I'm listening.

Sileena: I managed to locate a backup recovery protocol for the emitters.
Ok. How does that help us?

Sileena: I can hack the core backup storage to change the emitter settings. If we force the emitters to do a system-wide recovery, we could alter all of them simultaneously.
So, we'll be able to shut off the entire Orbisbarrier?

Sileena: No. I wish. I cannot override that part of the system, but I can alter the barrier radius.
To make the barrier smaller?

Sileena: Yes, enough to put you and Ravyn on the outside of it from where you are.
What about you?

Sileena: I'm afraid my location puts me at a disadvantage... I won't be able to escape with you, but you must proceed regardless.
What do I need to do? Keep in mind that my ship is completely surrounded.

Sileena: The barrier will be in a weakened state as it changes size. Nonetheless, it will wreak havoc on your ship's systems as it passes through, and you'll need to prepare.
Ok.

Sileena: You should be able to perform these hull modifications from where you are, but they are extensive.
I'm being monitored from every angle.

Sileena: The ships surrounding you will think you are just fortifying your position. If they ask questions, just tell them that you are standing your ground.
Sileena... we'll come back for you.

Sileena: I don't intend on staying here for long, commander. Don't worry about me. I'll find a way this time.
