Desolate

Desolate was the seventh event of Chapter 3 of the Shattered Warpgate campaign.

Starting this event required the completion of Triangulation. The completion of this event, alongside Missing in Action, was required to start New Beginnings.

Info
A new off-world Warpgate has been discovered emitting a faint Vanu signal and we must be the first to claim it.

The immense amount of power required to stabilize the connection, even for a short time, can only be drawn from a Containment Site.

Soldiers have been enlisted to reroute power in the facility while our technicians calibrate their systems.

Objectives
Desolate featured four objectives.
 * Warp to Esamir
 * Travel to Containment Site
 * Calibrate power circuits to reroute power (0/5)
 * Help the War Effort at a Containment Site (0/2000)

Transcript
The transcript of this event varied based on the faction of the character that played the event. Warden Hadley: Soldier, I assume you've read the mission posting so I'll get straight to the point. If our techs are correct this could be our chance to get a real leg up in this war, head to the marked Containment Site. I'll contact you once you've arrived. Warden Hadley: Alright, our techs tell me that these facilities draw in an incredible amount of power from the storms that were ravaging the area. They want to utilize that energy, so they need you to locate the marked power circuits and calibrate them to reroute it. Don't worry about the technical stuff, the egg heads tell me it's as simple as holding a button. Warden Hadley: Oh, and this isn't just going to be some walk along the beach, if you want to get paid then you'll need to eliminate some enemies and blow some things up. You know - the usual. Warden Hadley: Good work soldier, our techs are seeing green across the board. It'll take a while for them to gather enough power to juice the warpgate and there is still more work to be done, but this could be the first step toward something big. Field Officer Knightly: Soldier, I assume you have already read the mission briefing, so I'll cut straight to the point. If there really is an off-world facility then we must claim it for the republic. So, warp to Esamir and head out to the marked Containment Site. I will contact you when you're there. Field Officer Knightly: I'll cut out all of the technical talk and keep it simple. These facilities pull in a lot of power from the atmosphere and our technicians want to use it for some experiment. They've indicated which circuits need to be calibrated to acehive their needs and I have marked them for you, so hop to. Knightly: And soldier, this isn't some vacation, we are still at war, so do your thing. Field Officer Knightly: Well done soldier, your efforts on the battlefield have set our enemies back and our technicians are receiving the power they need to move onto the next phase of their work. Soon enough we may be able to expand off-world. Praetor Umatherin: Enlightened One, I do not need to tell you how important this mission is. If the relic is truly of Vanu origin then we must claim it. Proceed to the marked Containment Site on Esamir. I will brief you once you are there. Praetor Umatherin: Good, you made it to the facility. These facilities syphon an immense amount of power from the atmosphere, but it goes to waste. We intend to use that power to help us reach the off-world relic. Our technicians have marked several power circuits that will need to be calibrated to provide the power they require. Proceed with all due haste. Praetor Umatherin: Our informants tell me our enemies also seek to reach the relic. We cannot allow this to happen, so if you see any of them at the facilities eliminate them. Praetor Umatherin: You've assisted the cause by punishing our enemies and our technicians indicate they've received the power they need for the next phase. More work still needs to be done before we can utilize this power, but we are one step closer to expanding our understanding. Thank you for your assistance, Enlightened One. Facilitator Campner: Greetings, operative. We appreciate your interest in this mission. I have been told to direct you to the marked Containment Site. I will brief you further upon arrival. Facilitator Campner: I was informed that you reached the facility. Our technicians tell me that these facilities siphon a considerable amount of energy from the atmosphere. This energy can be harnessed to do incredible things. Facilitator Campner: For now our technicians require the power to be redirected to another facility for, so please proceed to the marked circuit and calibrate them to redistribute power as required. Facilitator Campner: I was also advised that your current faction contract should not be ignored. If you wish to continue to be employed then assist their war efforts. Facilitator Campner: I was just notified that you completed all of the listed tasks. Our technicians inform me that they are receiving the required power and are now able to continue their endeavors towards making contact with a warpgate off of Auraxis. Great work, Operative. I am closing the contract now.
