The Romulans killed Captain Sepek in the initial attack. They've been holding us here and forcing us to research how to adapt Borg technology and weapons for their use. They threatened to execute my crew if we didn't cooperate. If the Nobel has anything resembling an engine left, I'd like to try to get it out of the system. I won't let the Romulans have anything else. They won't let us leave without a fight, [Your rank]. We'll need your ship to provide cover until we can escape.
