    Selro
    Wait! Please, they've all gone silent! There's no time for me to call for help! We've lost contact with Project Quell, in the lower ground labs. It's, um, supposed to study those rakghoul creatures. They kept a whole pack of them there. The scientists wanted to study the rakghouls' behavior, try to find weaknesses we could use.
    Meteor
    Someone approved this?
    Selro
    Doctor Zalaren was project lead. But he only took the job after checking all the security himself!
    Hero of Tython
    You can't fight an opponent you don't understand.
    Selro
    But what's to understand, Master Jedi? They're rakghouls. You shoot them.
    Meteor
    Give me numbers, Private. How big is this rakghoul pack?
    Selro
    I never saw them, sir, only those huge crates of food they brought in.
    Voidhound
    Sounds like an Imperial lab.
    Selro
    Wait, what? No! Project Quell was just to watch the rakghouls, not do anything to them!
    I kept saying it was a bad idea! But I'm just a private, who cares what I think. All I know is, nobody's answering my check-ins. There was a power surge not long ago... maybe that opened the rakghoul pens. None of our scientists have come out. But if they reached the lab's panic room, they might still be alive. Please, you have to find them!
    Meteor
    Don't worry, we will.
    Selro
    Here - this code will arm Project Quell's security systems. If anyone's in the panic room, the defense droids will protect them. Just don't let your guard down. I don't know just what you'll find down there. Good luck.

    Zalaren
    Rescue? At last. Friendly face and weapons. After so many rakghouls, most welcome.
    Meteor
    You're one of the scientists?
    Zalaren
    Doctor Zalaren, lead of Project Quell. Apology for such inconvenience. So unacceptable. Future, rakghouls will all have shock collars. Security systems active - excellent, most excellent. We go safely. Much is owed for this.

    Selro
    I just heard from Doctor Zalaren. Between the panic room and your help, I think almost everyone got out okay. Thanks again. And don't worry, we're building power surge defenses in right this minute.

 to investigate, giving them the codes to the lab's security systems. He hoped that even if the rakghouls were released from their pens due to a power outage, the scientists would survive if they could make it to the lab's panic room.
The operatives went to the laboratory, where they discovered many rakghouls that had been somehow enhanced, making them much tougher and more aggressive.Despite what Private Selro believed, it turned out that the scientists on this project went far beyond simply observing the behavior of rakghouls, trying to increase their physical endurance and survival abilities.While battling the rakghouls, they restored the laboratory's defense capabilities using security stations A100, B200, and C300 as they were instructed. With the help of automated defenses, the operatives finally cleared the laboratory of rakghouls and headed to the laboratory's panic room, where they found Dr.

Zalaren thanked the operatives, promising that from now on all rakghouls would wear shock collars. Soon after, Selro contacted the operatives via holo and also thanked them for what they had done.
