[QUOTE]Originally posted by Malnurtured Snay: [QB] [QUOTE] Word of the events in the Nillavi Cluster spreads fast. Within a month of the initial contact from the Nillavi requesting assistance, patrols suggest that there is a T'g'nar convoy en route to Darev V. As far as you know, no negotiations have yet to be made with the T'g'nari in regards to aid, and your patrols have not been able to get close enough to the convoy to determine if they are freighters carrying foodstuffs or armed vessels looking for a fight..[/QUOTE]I'm going to alert the Nillavi to the presence of the convoy, and see if they have any knowledge of the contents of the convoy. I will order the [i]Aba'Kur[/i] to depart Senec and conduct a long distance scan of the convoy to see if it can determine the cargo. [QUOTE]Nillavi refugee ships are headed for an unclaimed planet in system A9513. While in neutral space, the Senac are beginning to accuse the Nillavi of taking advantage of the situation by expanding out of their territory. The Senac request that Starfleet do something about this dangerous expansionism before it poses a threat to Senac sovereignty. Whatcha gonna do?[/QUOTE]I'm tempted to not even respond. The Nillavi, and for that matter, the T'g'nari, are welcome to any unclaimed planets. The Senec should really be aware of this. However, I am aware of their concerns, things in the sector appear to be flying out of control, so I will redeploy the [i]Gorkon[/i] to Senec. [QUOTE]The preliminary data is in concerning the Darev star. The good news is, it looks like whatever change the star is going through is starting to slow down, meaning that Darev V won’t become uninhabitable. The bad news is that the warming phase isn’t done yet. The population will have to deal with higher UV levels and warmer climate, though, and the food situation will take a while to sort out too. Towards that end, the Nillavi request that the Federation provide assistance in building a system of food replicator facilities to supplement their existing agricultural supplies.[/QUOTE]We will be happy to assist ... but there are going to be conditions which the Federation is going to insist on as a result of this assistance. These conditions will be spelled out in response to other scenarios, below: [QUOTE]A small Nillavi ship docks at your starbase for repairs. Surprisingly, the crew are all Qorn. They state that the ship was purchased legally, but they’re acting kinda odd in their interactions with the Starfleet officers they meet. It’s clear they have only general knowledge of the workings of their ship and technology (though not Pakled-level inexperience, either). What actions (if any) will you take to investigate this unusual development?[/QUOTE]The Nillavi need to provide information regarding to the ownership and registration of this vessel. While the Nillavi are of course welcome to trade with the Qorn, if they are going to be relying on Federation aid, we are going to hold them to certain standards of conduct (consider it a Prime Directive Lite) - for one thing, no provision of starships to the Qorn. If it turns out the Qorn have hijacked this starship and killed or imprisoned the crew, Starfleet will work with the Nillavi to ensure the safe return of the Nillavi crew, and disposition of the Qorn crew. [QUOTE]Assuming you sent a starship to patrol around Qorn, your inspectors discover a Nillavi civilian freighter carrying arkenite crystals and reinforced proton accumulation chambers, two key components of plasma-based weaponry. During questioning, the Nillavi captain reveals that there has been trade of some advanced technology from the Nillavi in exchange for vitally-needed food supplies from Qorn. The equipment has been moving along the existing Nillavi-Senac-Qorn trade route. Although some of the trading ships have passed through the Senac system, it appears that the Senac themselves are not involved. The Nillavi and three of the larger Qorn nations all file a protest with your office, accusing you of interfering with legitimate interstellar trade. Considering these developments, how will you respond?[/QUOTE]If the Nillavi wish Federation aid, they are going to cut off trading weapons with the Qorn, immediately. If they would prefer to receive their food stuff from the Qorn (in which case I will refuse to provide them replicators and remove the ones we have already provided), we will keep our nose out of their business. If they decide they would prefer to do business with the Federation, they agree to the establishment of Starfleet offices at their starports so that Starfleet and Nillavi officials can ensure no weaponry, or other restricted technologies, are being shipped to the Qorn. Additionally, I pull the [i]Pelileu[/i] off the Northern Border patrol to provide interdiction services of any starship approaching Qorn. [QUOTE]A meeting between the Nillavi and the T’g’nari has gone horribly awry: during a trade negotiation between a T’g’nari and a Nillavi warship in the G510 system, the two ships started shooting at each other. There’s few details about how it started (naturally each side accuses the other of firing the first shot), but it ended with the T’g’nari ship completely disabled and the Nillavi warship limping for home at warp 2. But when it rains, it pours… the T’g’nari send 3 more warships in pursuit. And it looks like they’ll catch up with the Nillavi cruiser before any friendly ships can reach them from the home cluster. The Nillavi captain begs for help from any nearby ships.[/QUOTE]The [i]Aba'Kur[/i] is the closest starship and can intercept the Nillavi vessel before the T'g'nari. However: if the Nillavi wish to play with fire, there are consequences. If the Nillavi wish for help from the [i]Aba'Kur[/i], these are my orders: our ship will ask the T'g'nari to stand down. If they refuse, we will evacuate the Nillavi crew, and leave the vessel as a prize for the T'g'nari. There is, however, only a small window of opportunity. If the Nillavi crew refuses to evacuate, the captain of the [i]Aba'Kur[/i] has received specific order to withdraw and NOT engage the T'g'nari in hostilities. I have informed the Nillavi and T'g'nari of these orders. [/QB][/QUOTE]
