In Shadow Play, a mission to return a colonist to her home leads to greater mysteries regarding the Romulan Empire and the Elachi.

Summary[edit | edit source]

Escorting a survivor back home leads the crew to discover the truth behind mysterious disappearances in Romulan space.

Outline[edit | edit source]

Mission text[edit | edit source]

T'Kela, the survivor you rescued from Dimorus station, has provided some very interesting information about both the Tal Shiar and the new race with which they've allied. Meanwhile, the Romulan Republic and neutral colonies are continuing to report mysterious abductions. We believe these two events are related.

T'Kela wants to go home to her colony on Cirini Prime. The colony there has remained independent from both the remains of the Romulan Star Empire and the burgeoning Romulan Republic. That puts them in a delicate balancing act.

We thought taking T'Kela home could be a good opportunity to figure out what's happening behind the scenes of the Romulan conflict. We would like you to go to Cirini Prime and investigate.

Goal[edit | edit source]

Head to the Cirini System, which is located in the Beta Quadrant, and investigate the colony there.

Notes[edit | edit source]

  • This mission is part of the revamped Federation episode Romulan Mystery; it was released as part of the 5 Year Anniversary Event on January 29, 2015.
  • In this mission, the player participates in the final stage of the Battle of New Romulus, depicted in “Devil's Choice”.
  • Locations of the five lore pieces can be found at [1]
  • One of the objects scanned in orbit by the player is a T’liss Warbird which is said to have taken a lot of damage, this could be perceived as the ship used by the Romulan captain to escape the planet during “Flight from Virinat”.
  • Interestingly, it is not necessary to destroy all the Elachi ships during the battle over New Romulus. Once the command dreadnought is destroyed, the fleet falls into disarray, and the ending dialogue is triggered regardless of how many enemy ships are left.
