CROSS
Well, $CS, are the dragons slain?
PLAYER
Wipe the dragons from your charts, and replace them with pirates.  
Dead pirates, anyway. The area was swarming with the little buggers...  
...but I did a little exterminating before completing my mapping run.
CROSS
That's good to know. If I don't get this sector mapped real soon...
...the brass at HQ will have my rear.
PLAYER
Lucky brass. Any way I can beat them to it?
CROSS
Hmmm...maybe we'll discuss that after this next mission.
This time you'll enter a completely unexplored region.
I need you to launch from Rygannon, pass through Delta to a new jump point...
...which you will use to jump to the uncharted system we've designated Beta.
All you have to do is hit all the nav points in your computer.
I'll update the chart using your flight disc and pay you 10,000 credits when you return...

PLAYER
Like I told you before...I need the work.
CROSS
Don't worry, $NM. You're not going into a known hazard area.
PLAYER
Yeah, but it's the unknown hazards that scare me.  
Still, I'll do my best and meet you back here when I'm done.
CROSS
Good. By the way, there's one more thing I need you to do on this run.
One of my men, Captain Garrovick, made the same run you're making.
He never came back, so one of your objectives is to find him if you can.
PLAYER
I thought this wasn't a known hazard area.
CROSS
We don't know if anything hazardous happened to Garrovick...
...but keep your eyes peeled just the same, okay?
PLAYER
Sounds kind of boring. I think I'll bow out.
CROSS
Too bad. I think this one would've been a lot easier...
...but I guess you have your reasons...

Accepted

CROSS
Finished your mapping run of Beta system already?
PLAYER
Haven't left yet, actually.
CROSS
Look, $CS, this is easy money. If you don't want it...
...I'll be happy to find someone who does!
Like I told you...I need the money.
Then take Jump Point Delta to Beta system, follow your mapping spiral...
...try to locate Captain Garrovick and report back here for your 10,000.
And please hurry. I have deadlines, you know.

Why are you hesitating about taking this mission? It's not difficult.
You'll launch from Rygannon, pass through Delta to a new jump point...
...which you'll use to jump to the uncharted system we've designated Beta.
Then all you have to do is hit all the nav points in your computer.
I'll update the chart using your flight disc and pay you 10,000 credits for the charts.
That's my offer. Sound good to you?

In Flight

Talk to Garrovick

# Do you need help?
# Anyone home?
# Unidentified vessel, request status.
GARROVICK
Damn you! Keep back! No...NO!
# Is that any way to greet your savior?
GARROVICK
Stay away! You hear me? BACK OFF!
# I mean you no harm.
# Do you require assistance?
GARROVICK
All right...you asked for it!

Failed

Talk to Taryn Cross

PLAYER
Look, you don't have to tell me. I know I screwed up.
CROSS
Yeah, you did. It hurts me to say this, because I like you...
...but I'm afraid you're fired.
We need results, $CS. And I don't want to sit around this god-forsaken sector forever.
PLAYER
Hey, I'll try harder, I'll work faster...
CROSS
Sorry, $NM...you had your chance and you blew it.
I wish you luck. Good-bye.
