Outline

Mission Text

How much do you know about the destruction of Romulus, <rank>?

The initial explosion did not occur in the Romulus System. It was in the Hobus System, which had planets being mined for decalithium.

The supernova acted counter to almost all we know about this type of phenomena. The initial explosion converted the mass of the planets it consumed into energy, which then traveled through subspace. Ultimately, the Romulus System was destroyed, and along with it, the Romulan homeworld.

Unchecked, the force of this chain reaction detonation could have threatened the entire quadrant. It was Ambassador Spock who sealed the rift by using red matter to create an artificial black hole.

Until recently, the cause of the supernova was a mystery. However, the nascent Romulan Republic, our new ally, has shared information with us that Taris, former Praetor of the Romulan Star Empire, may have been responsible for the Hobus supernova. They attempted to apprehend her, but she escaped through an Iconian gateway.

Recently, the Romulan Republic has discovered new information that could help us track down Taris. We want you to rendezvous with the R.R.W. Lleiset, the new flagship of the Romulan Republic fleet, and provide any assistance you can.

Goal

Travel to the Hobus System, which is located in the Iota Pavonis Sector Block, and rendezvous with the R.R.W. Lleiset.
