General Garza contacted Taris local regimental commander, Colonel Gaff, to secure his support for Havoc Squad's mission, but didn't share the specifics of the mission. |
Dialog transcript |
Elin GarzaCome in, Lieutenant. This is General Garza. Do you copy?MeteorI read you loud and clear, General.Elin GarzaI understand you've just landed on Taris. I've already contacted our local regimental commander, Colonel Gaff, to secure his support. Colonel Gaff doesn't know the specifics of your mission - only that he should assist you in every way possible. I'd like to keep it that way.MeteorI'll keep quiet on the details, General.Elin GarzaThat's for the best, Lieutenant.MeteorDo we know which of the Havoc traitors is hiding here?Elin GarzaI'm afraid not. You'll have to depend on local intelligence gathering to determine your target's identity and location.Taris is a dangerous and untamed wasteland. A Sith attack several centuries ago leveled every standing structure and virtually eradicated the local population. Where cities once rivaled Coruscant, only swamps and ruins remain. Reclaiming and rebuilding the planet has become an important symbolic goal for the Senate.MeteorIf there's any way I can aid in the reconstruction, I'll do it.Elin GarzaOf course. Just don't lose sight of your primary objective.MeteorWhat else can you tell me?Elin GarzaI see vague mention of infectious parasites - apparently, Colonel Gaff works hard to withhold negative information about the reconstruction.That's all I have for you, Lieutenant. Report in when your operation is complete.MeteorI'll contact you as soon as the job's done, General. |

Elin GarzaAh. Greetings, Lieutenant. I understand congratulations are in order.MeteorMission accomplished. Needles is neutralized, General.Elin GarzaYou'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.MeteorNeedles was insane - I doubt anyone saw eye-to-eye with him.Elin GarzaAnd 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?MeteorSergeant Dorne helped me when no one else would, General.Elin GarzaYes, 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?MeteorShe told me she grew up in the Empire. A personality like hers is a pretty strong clue to her background.Elin GarzaYes, 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.MeteorSomeone with Sergeant Dorne's skills would make a great addition to my squad.Elin GarzaI 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.MeteorSergeant Dorne would make an excellent addition to Havoc Squad.Elin GarzaIt'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. |

General Garza informed Colonel Gaff that Sergeant Dorne was reassigned to the Havoc Squad |

Elin GarzaYes, Senator, that's exactly what I'm saying. I can assure you that I've seen no shred of proof supporting these rumors of a defection within SpecForce division.ArnusGeneral, surely you understand, we need more than just your assurances in a matter of this-Elin GarzaMy assurances are what you're getting, Senator. They'll have to be enough. Now if you'll excuse me, I seem to have a guest.ArnusBut Gen- |

Elin GarzaImpeccable timing, Lieutenant. I'm General Garza. It's good to finally meet you in person.MeteorIt's an honor to be here, General.Elin GarzaI have to congratulate you - surviving the ordeal on Ord Mantell took skill and courage. I'm impressed.MeteorThank you, General.Elin GarzaSergeant Jorgan, I'm pleased to have you with us as well. General Vander holds you in very high regard.Aric JorganThank you, sir. But General Vander has an odd way of showing his "regard."Elin GarzaVander did the best he could for you, Sergeant. And I'd say a position in the Republic's most decorated Special Forces squad is doing very well indeed.It's regrettable about Tavus and the others. I knew they were upset, but I never imagined they would be so foolish as to defect. Nevertheless, whatever your former squad-mates once were to us, they are now extremely dangerous enemies of the Republic.MeteorProtecting the Republic from its enemies is our duty.Elin GarzaI'm glad I can depend on you to do what's necessary, Lieutenant.Aric JorganSo, let's load up a strike shuttle and hunt Tavus and the rest of them down like the scum they are.Elin GarzaI would very much like to give that order, Sergeant, but I'm afraid we've discovered some new information since you left Ord Mantell. Things would be bad enough if we only had Havoc to deal with, but- Havoc did not defect to the Empire alone. Our intelligence shows that hundreds of other Special Forces soldiers have followed Tavus and defected to the Empire. In short, Lieutenant, we have a catastrophe on our hands.MeteorI can't believe so many soldiers could abandon our cause.Elin GarzaIt's a dire situation. But we aren't out of options yet. We have one powerful asset that Tavus and his followers haven't planned for: you. Tavus believes you're dead on Ord Mantell, and that Havoc's defection is still a secret. Right now, Tavus will be securing his armament and supplies. We need to cut those supply lines while he isn't expecting it.MeteorTavus is with the Empire, now. Wouldn't they keep him supplied?Elin GarzaThe Sith Empire welcomes our defectors, but they're not going to equip men whose loyalty isn't proven. Tavus will need other sources.In the past, when Havoc needed supplies outside of the normal Republic channels, they purchased the items from underworld groups here on Coruscant. I have units working to cut off these underworld sources, but two organizations are proving difficult: the Black Sun and the Migrant Merchants' Guild.MeteorCan these groups really stand against us?Elin GarzaThese aren't simple gangs, Lieutenant. They control large territories and extensive resources. This isn't law enforcement. I want these people shut down, eliminated. You'll begin with the Migrant Merchants' Guild. Our intelligence indicates that they're supplying Tavus with a full platoon of advanced war droids. Your mission, in the broad strokes, will be to locate the droid shipments going to Tavus and destroy them.MeteorWhat if we let the shipments go? Then we could follow them straight to Tavus.Elin GarzaI can't risk the possibility that these items could fall into Tavus's hands.One of my people, Corporal Garrum, will meet you outside the Migrant Merchants' Guild's territory with the full operational details. These missions are critical, Lieutenant. Our future success or failure is contingent on how well-supplied Tavus and his followers are.MeteorAfter Ord Mantell, these thugs won't even be a challenge.Elin GarzaDon't underestimate these people. There's a reason why they've been so successful up to now, and it isn't their charming personalities. I'll be observing your operations from here through your armor-cam. Good luck, Lieutenant - dismissed. |

Elin GarzaGood work, Lieutenant. My technicians are accessing the Justicars' files now. Patrol schedules, supply manifests, prisoner records- ah! Kardan, you... I think we've found what we were looking for, Lieutenant. You have a new target.MeteorAre you saying the old man isn't my objective anymore?Elin GarzaKardan is still an objective, but not your only objective. Kardan had the Justicars work with the Imperials to hijack and rebuild an abandoned Republic communications relay, down in an industrial area called the Works. Apparently, Tavus and his followers are using this relay to route all of their interplanetary communications. If we destroy it, the traitors will be completely cut off from one another.MeteorNobody noticed the Imps taking control of this relay? Heads better roll for this.Elin GarzaThe relay was abandoned after it crashed down to the Works and went offline during the Imperial sack of Coruscant. According to their files, the Justicars found the relay on the surface several months ago and worked with the Imperials to rebuild it. I'm sending Sergeant Mathin to bring you the explosives you'll need to destroy the relay. He'll rendezvous with you shortly.MeteorI'll meet up with Sergeant Mathin ASAP.Elin GarzaOne last thing: Kardan didn't seem to mesh with the Imperials. I don't think he's as convinced of their supremacy as his proteges are. You're sure to find him guarding that comm relay. Kill him if you have to, Lieutenant, but try to persuade him to surrender peacefully first.MeteorWhat can I do to convince Kardan to come in?Elin GarzaKardan's only concern is the safety of the former Havoc members. He may not be loyal to us, but he isn't loyal to the Empire, either. Convince him that it's in the best interest of Tavus's and the others for him to surrender. That's the best way to sway him.MeteorCan't hurt to see if Kardan will listen to reason.Elin GarzaI know Jek Kardan, Lieutenant. Convince him that surrendering is the only way that everyone comes out of this alive, and we'll have him. Now hurry and rendezvous with Sergeant Mathin. You'll need those explosives regardless of what happens with Kardan. Good luck. Garza out. |

Elin GarzaAh, the hero of the hour. I'm proud of you, Lieutenant. You've done well.MeteorJust doing my job.Elin GarzaJek Kardan walked up to the Senate tower's front door and surrendered himself in broad daylight. I never thought I'd see the day. Kardan's help will give us quite an edge against Tavus and the others. I'm glad you could change his mind.MeteorDo we have Kardan in a secure location?Elin GarzaShortly. First, we'll make sure he doesn't have any tricks up his sleeve. I haven't come this far by taking chances. Kardan will be kept in restraints, under heavy guard at all times. Trust me, this man is the last person I would underestimate.The Justicars' computer files included messages relayed between four locations. Our technicians are working to pinpoint those locations now. There can be no doubt that the messages will lead us to the other traitors. Thanks to your efforts, we'll be able to bring them all to justice very soon.MeteorWhat are my orders in the meantime?Elin GarzaAs it happens, we've already discovered the location of one of the Havoc traitors: Wraith.You remember Senator Krasul from your meeting with the Senate earlier? Wraith kidnapped him from his home just afterward. We've tracked them to a remote space station called Port Raga.MeteorHas Wraith made any demands? What's her objective?Elin GarzaOur intelligence is very thin at the moment. No demands have been made as yet.MeteorHow could Wraith manage to kidnap a Republic Senator?Elin GarzaWraith was chosen for Havoc Squad for a reason. Her skills are exceptional.One of our teams is already en route to Port Raga. They'll investigate the situation and give you a detailed report on arrival. You've already accomplished some amazing things, Lieutenant, but there's no time for a break yet. Whatever Wraith is planning, we cannot allow her to succeed. Understood?MeteorWhat about transport, General?Elin GarzaHavoc Squad requires its own starship for operational flexibility. A ship has already been transferred to your command - it's waiting at the spaceport now.MeteorI appreciate it, General.Elin GarzaPut it to good use, Lieutenant. Fly to Port Raga and meet with the advance team immediately. Your orders are to rescue Senator Krasul and capture or eliminate Wraith at all costs. Good luck, Lieutenant. Dismissed.Aric JorganLet's get out there and take down some traitors. |

Elin GarzaAh, Lieutenant. I was just speaking with Sergeant Jaxo. Congratulations. Saving Senator Krasul will certainly help our affairs with the Senate. We needed someone to owe us a favor - well done.MeteorThank you, General.Elin GarzaYou've accomplished something very important - something beyond even your assignment to hunt down Tavus and the other traitors.You're in the field, Lieutenant... you see how far the Empire is reaching. A full attack isn't far off, now. To keep the Empire's forces at bay, we need the Senate's support. We need allies.MeteorI'm glad I could help out the cause.Elin GarzaYes, you've done quite well in that regard.One thing, Lieutenant, I was disappointed to learn of Wraith's escape. She's capable of causing great turmoil.MeteorCatching Wraith would have meant leaving Krasul to die.Elin GarzaThen you probably made the best choice. The Senator is certainly more useful alive than dead.Now - our technicians have decoded the first two sets of data from the Coruscant relay. Your first two targets are on Taris and Nar Shaddaa.MeteorCan you tell me anything beyond the destinations?Elin GarzaNot at this time, I'm afraid. I'll try to collect more intelligence and give you a fuller briefing when you arrive at each location.Good luck. Garza out. |
"We are heartless so that the people of the Republic don't have to be, Lieutenant. So that the Republic does not become the Empire. Always remember that." - General Garza to Meteor after Havoc squad disobeyed her direct order to kill several people without proving them guilty.Elin Garza was a human female General
