"How about th...this for the plan then LEXI? Now we've reinforced the hull of the Aletheia and installed a c...containment unit equivalent to that in Lab Thirteen's vault, we loop by Heisenber, pick it up, and head homeward bound via Copernicus. As we're passing past the central Asteroid field, we launch the containment unit and it's contents it's the Br...B...Brown Dwarf at it's centre. It hits the sun and skablaamo~ No artefact. No reason to pursue us."

[:: Query: What if the artefact is not destroyed within the Brown Dwarf? ::]

"Surely it would be... but if not, it is then at the center of that star isolated within a radioactive dust cloud. I doubt anyone will be able to reach it."

[:: Statement: You are uncertain, Thallia. ::]

"I am st...starting to realised we can never be certain, LEXI. Besides... we destroy this artefact, the likelihood is another will be found somewhere. What matters is that we delay this however we can and, ur... well, free ourselves in the process."

[:: Query: What will we do afterwards? ::]

"Rebuild. Rebuild ou...ourselves. Re-find who we are. Do what we want. Work with the Starfliers, SLRC...and who knows who else, but we ge...get back to our roots. Scientific endeavour. Building things that help people. Protect people. How it sh....should have been when we set out into Sirius nine years ago."
