Synopsis[ | ]

Outline[ | ]

Mission Text[ | ]

Everything points to the communications array as the hub of Tal Shiar activity on Nimbus III. There have also been reports of disappearances in the vicinity, and they have to be releated. The Tal Shiar have been taking people from all over. Makes sense that they're doing it here too.

It's time to find out what's going on inside that comm array. Get ready, <rank> – I don't think this is going to be easy.

Goal[ | ]

Investigate the communications array on Nimbus III, which is located in the Beta Quadrant.
