Info
The colossal Trident Relays loom over Oshur's horizon like monolithic gravestones.

Although no longer able to communicate, the gravely injured researcher from the flooded subterranean facility has revealed schematics of significant interest to the empires of Auraxis. Will this technology be used as a safeguard against future attacks? Or will it birth a new weapon of war?

New Conglomerate
Collect the researcher's datapad and bring it back to the flotilla. We can't let it fall into enemy hands. I can't believe the Terran Republic really thought they'd be able to win the war that way. I don't expect much, but the datapad will be delivered to our scientists to see what they can come up with. That was some excellent detective work you did out there, soldier. Perhaps not as action-packed as you're used to, but valuable none-the-less.

Terran Republic
Collect the researcher's datapad and bring it back to the flotilla. We can't let it fall into enemy hands. It's a pity that the team got wiped out like that. Not sure if their research would have won the war, but I'll make sure it gets to our scientists so that we can find that out. That was solid detective work you did out there, soldier. Perhaps not as action-packed as you're used to, but valuable none-the-less.
