    Elin Garza
    Ah. Greetings, Lieutenant. I understand congratulations are in order.
    Meteor
    Mission accomplished. Needles is neutralized, General.
    Elin Garza
    You've done very well. Needles was a brilliant man - taking him down was no small feat. I haven't informed Kardan yet, but I doubt he'll be upset. He and Needles never did see eye-to-eye. Purely different ideologies, those two. Kardan happy can be very useful to us. An angry Kardan means trouble, even while in custody. Try to remember that.
    Meteor
    Needles was insane - I doubt anyone saw eye-to-eye with him.
    Elin Garza
    And yet, Tavus never had any problems with Needles. Perhaps that should've been my first warning. And there's something else, Lieutenant. Tell me, what do you think of Sergeant Dorne?
    Meteor
    Sergeant Dorne helped me when no one else would, General.
    Elin Garza
    Yes, your reception on Taris wasn't ideal. I'm glad you managed to find the one useful officer in the entire outpost. I looked over her service record. Impressive stuff, I must say. Were you aware that Dorne served with the Imperial military for almost two years, Lieutenant?
    Meteor
    She told me she grew up in the Empire. A personality like hers is a pretty strong clue to her background.
    Elin Garza
    Yes, the accent is a dead giveaway. Pure Dromund Kaas. I suspect her life in the Empire involved no small amount of discipline. Sergeant Dorne earned more commendations in her two years of Imperial service than most soldiers earn in ten. Since joining the Republic, she's earned two Medals of Valor, both for rescuing wounded soldiers under fire in enemy territory. This woman has led an exceptional career.
    Meteor
    Someone with Sergeant Dorne's skills would make a great addition to my squad.
    Elin Garza
    I agree. Sergeant Dorne is Havoc Squad material, without question. The sergeant's loyalty to the Republic has been proven to my satisfaction. I want Dorne in Havoc Squad, Lieutenant. Her service record is unmatched, and her assistance to you on Taris was beyond commendable.
    Meteor
    Sergeant Dorne would make an excellent addition to Havoc Squad.
    Elin Garza
    It's settled, then. Congratulations, Lieutenant - you're halfway to a full squad. Havoc Squad needs a medical officer, and Dorne's firsthand experience with the Imperials is invaluable. I'll contact Colonel Gaff to notify him about the transfer. You should go and inform Sergeant Dorne yourself, Lieutenant. Contact me from your ship when you've finished. Garza out.

    Elara Dorne
    Lieutenant, sir. Is there something else I can do for you?
    Meteor
    I want you on my team. Consider this your official invitation to Havoc Squad, Sergeant Dorne.
    Elara Dorne
    Lieutenant, this... this is the greatest honor of my career. I'm speechless.
    Aric Jorgan
    Membership in Havoc Squad is the highest achievement in all of the Republic Armed Forces, Sergeant. Congratulations. But don't get too excited, Sergeant. It's not as impressive as it's made out to be.
    Elara Dorne
    Sergeant Dorne, reporting for duty, Lieutenant! I'll prepare my Regulation 6 Personnel Transfer documents at once!
    Meteor
    You've more than earned this, Sergeant.

    Elin Garza
    Lieutenant. I assume Sergeant Dorne took the news well?
    Meteor
    Sergeant Dorne is honored to be in Havoc Squad.
    Elin Garza
    One other detail: Were you able to retrieve a sample of the weaponized rakghoul disease that Needles was developing?
    Meteor
    The last sample took a stray blaster bolt while I was dealing with Needles.
    Elin Garza
    That's too bad. Research division would've done anything to get their hands on a sample, and I could've used the favors. That's all for now, Lieutenant. Congratulations once again. Garza out.

    Sir. My equipment and personal effects have been stowed in full accordance with transport code section two. If I may say so again, sir, it is truly an honor to be selected for Havoc Squad.
    Meteor
    I'm glad to have you on the team, Dorne.
    Elara Dorne
    Thank you very much, sir. I intend to begin reviewing and memorizing all relevant dossiers and intelligence reports on our assignment immediately. If I discover any points of confusion or areas where I believe I can contribute, I'll submit a full 587-B report.
    Meteor
    Carry on, Dorne.
    Elara Dorne
    Yes, sir.

    Elara Dorne
    Excuse me, sir. May I have a moment of your time?
    Meteor
    What can I do for you, Dorne?
    Elara Dorne
    As a condition of my service in the Republic military, Personnel Division requires that I report regularly on my activities. However, my Havoc Squad missions are classified and cannot be shared with Personnel Division. I'd like to ask if you would vouch for me when I report in.
    Meteor
    I'll be happy to help. Haven't you proven your loyalty by now?
    Elara Dorne
    Thank you very much, sir. That is a matter for Personnel Division to decide. We should use the ship's secure line.

    Elara Dorne
    Captain Kalor? This is Elara Dorne, personnel number 22-795, reporting in per regulation 449.
    Kalor
    Please, Elara, you don't have to give me the full rundown every time. I know who you are. How are things?
    Elara Dorne
    Well enough, sir. Allow me to introduce you to the commander of Havoc Squad - my new CO. Sir, this is Captain Kalor, Army Personnel Division.
    Meteor
    Good to meet you, Captain.
    Kalor
    The pleasure is mine. Meeting you is a real honor.
    Meteor
    Is this necessary, Captain? I don't see that Dorne's loyalty needs to be proven further.
    Kalor
    Oh, we're all very proud of Elara. This is just part of the process. Tell me about being in the top squad in the Republic, Elara. You must be keeping very busy.
    Elara Dorne
    I'm sorry, Captain, but you aren't authorized to know about Havoc Squad's activities. My CO will have to vouch for me from now on.
    Kalor
    What? Elara, I don't want to be a hard case, but rules are rules - this "top secret" junk won't fly.
    Meteor
    All Havoc Squad activities are highly classified, Captain. I'm sorry for any inconvenience.
    Kalor
    Heh. Inconvenience.
    Meteor
    This is how it is, Captain. You don't like it, talk to General Garza.
    Kalor
    I might have to. This situation is not acceptable. Just... just carry on, Elara. We'll talk about this after I've had a word with my superiors. Kalor out.

    Elara Dorne
    Hm. I wasn't expecting him to react so strongly. Surely he didn't expect me to report on classified information?
    Meteor
    Protecting classified information is a top priority.
    Elara Dorne
    Yes, sir. I'm surprised the captain didn't agree. If you'll excuse me, sir, I have several matters to attend to. Thank you for your time.

    Aric Jorgan
    Inventory report, sir. Food and medical supplies all look good, but our munitions are getting low. Thought we'd have enough to last us the year. Already requisitioned Command for more. Guess I shouldn't be too surprised. See more action in one day with Havoc than you see in a month with the Deadeyes.
    Meteor
    What kind of work did you do for the Deadeyes?
    Aric Jorgan
    We mainly ran decapitation strikes, neutralized enemy commanders before a Republic offensive. Left the opposition leaderless, disorganized. Sometimes we'd camp outside the enemy's base for weeks, waiting for a clear shot. Eventually we'd hit our target, pull out and let the ground pounders mop up. Can't say there's anything particularly noble about killing a man from half a klick. The sniper's life isn't for everyone. All about that one shot that'll make or break a battle.
    Meteor
    You must've chalked up quite a kill count.
    Aric Jorgan
    Over two dozen confirmed. Eventually, I was offered a promotion and a post on Ord Mantell. I took it. Smart move, career-wise. More men, more responsibility. But I wasn't interested in fighting separatists. I signed on to fight Imperials. Anything else I did was career dressing. One day I'm picking off Imperial brass, the next I'm pacifying mobs of angry seps. After my transfer, command of the Deadeyes fell to my XO, Torve. Smart kid - a little green, but the potential was there.
    Meteor
    If he learned from you, I'm sure he's a fine officer.
    Aric Jorgan
    Only so much a person can be taught about leadership. You've either got what it takes, or you don't. Come to think of it, I haven't been in contact with the Deadeyes for awhile. I should find out where they're stationed, catch up.

    Aric Jorgan
    Sir, you should know... General Vander contacted me. Said he'd talked it over with the brass and finagled a way to get me back on Ord Mantell. Offered me my old post, a promotion and command of their operations there. Pretty sweet deal, overall.
    Meteor
    I hope you turned him down. You're a part of Havoc Squad now.
    Aric Jorgan
    You think I'd head back to some backwater planet like Ord Mantell? Fact is, I've been hitting the Empire harder than ever since I joined Havoc Squad. I didn't enlist to win medals or promotions. I enlisted to protect the Republic, to prove my people have a place here.
    PLAYER: Get your priorities straight. The squad comes first. Everything else comes second.
    Meteor
    The Cathar will always have a place in the Republic.
    Aric Jorgan
    I hope so. We already lost one home to the Mandalorians. I'm not about to let the Empire take another.
