Secrets of Nimbus

"Secrets of Nimbus" is a cross-faction mission in the game Star Trek Online. It is the first mission of the "Wasteland" episode.

Description[]

Mission text (Federation): We have a situation in the Nimbus system, <Rank>. Romulan Republic intelligence suggests that there are triggers for thalaron weapons somewhere on the planet Nimbus III. There are also increasing reports of Tal Shiar activity on the planet.; Most people steer clear of Nimbus III these days – the Orion Syndicate basically runs the planet. Obviously, though, it would be a disaster if the Tal Shiar managed to get their hands on the thalaron triggers or take control of the planet. Stopping them not only helps a planet that needs Starfleet assistance, it provides a diplomatic connection with the Romulan Republic.; I know that I can count on you to do the right thing.

Mission text (Klingon): We have a situation in the Nimbus system, <Rank>. Romulan Republic intelligence suggests that there are triggers for thalaron weapons somewhere on the planet Nimbus III. There are also increasing reports of Tal Shiar activity on the planet.; Those Tal Shiar dogs cannot be allowed to have those triggers! We have sent a team to Nimbus III already, but they have failed to report in. Something must have happened.; I'm leaving this task in your hands. May you find glory in the sands of Nimbus.

Mission text (Romulan): <rank>, after what you've been through, I wouldn't blame you if you decided to take a leave of absence. But you seem to be recovering from the vestiges of indoctrination as well as can be expected.; I hope you're feeling better. The psychologists assure us that the nightmares and flashbacks will pass.; At the moment, we're trying to follow up on scattered intel regarding a missing chache of thalaron triggers. Our best information places them on Nimbus III. We're also getting increasing reports of Tal Shiar activity on the planet.; Naturally, we want to keep the triggers out of the hands of Hakeev and the Tal Shiar. But I'd also like to know exactly what they're doing on "the planet of galactic peace."; Nimbus III has been a derelict planet for many years now, and it has only gotten worse under the influence of the Orion Syndicate. Hassan the Undying has turned the planet into his personal fiefdom. Both Starfleet and the Klingon Defense Force have sent people to investigate, but they haven't found much.; Our operatives have been following leads provided by an itinerant trader there named Horace Jones. So far nothing's turned up. If you're feeling up to it, perhaps you'll have better luck.
