## Event

Ship: none.

*A Lost Sun vessel is nearby, their captain frantically pacing back and forth. "You there- you belong to the Federation fleet? You must assist us. It is of the highest importance."*

1. Listen to their request.
	* *"Our leader, Admiral Ariadne's personal cruiser has been taken by Inquisition forces at these co-ordinates. You must rescue her under any conditions, or else we are doomed. The Federation is the Lost Suns' only ally, we must rely solely on your efforts for our continued survival."*
		+ You gain a quest marker.
2. We don't have the time.
	* *The Rockman merely grunts and flies away.*
		1. Do something aboard the ship
		2. Do nothing.

## Captured Lost Sun Cruiser

Ship: Lost Sun Cruiser.

*The fleet the Lost Suns mentioned isn't present at the co-ordinates they gave, but the cruiser is! The ship hails you, a gruff Rockman with a scar down his eye staring you down. "The Inquisition has recovered this vessel, and the same shall be for this entire sector. It would be wise for the Federation to cut ties with the Lost Suns and leave at once, or face the wrath of a second Inquisition. It is only a matter of time until the Theocracy rises again; which side do you want to be on?"*

1. You're right, the Lost Suns are a pathetic ally to the Theocracy's strength.
	* *"So you have changed your mind so suddenly? What makes you say these words?"*
		1. The Lost Suns are rash and violent. The Theocracy knows how to time its strikes.
			+ *The Rockman on the camera changes his composure. "You know nothing then. Too easily persuaded, an unworthy ally to the Lost Suns. Be glad you get off easy, I would much rather squish your head had I orders not to."*
				- Nothing happens.
2. The Inquisition has failed before.
	* *"THE INQUISITION HAS NEVER FAILED! We have merely... paused our efforts, until the time is right. The Coalition shall be the spark that reignites the fires of fury in our hearts."*
		1. Spoken like a true Lost Sun.
			+ *"You dare insult the might and grace of the Elder's holy crusades? You die here!"*
				- Fight the captured Lost Sun Cruiser (surrenders at 1-2 hull)
					* (**When the ship surrenders**) *Suddenly, the stolen cruiser stops firing. From the shadows steps out a Rockwoman, bearing the hat of an admiral. "You fight valiantly in the name of your allies captain. You should be proud."*
						1. This was all a test?
					* (**After killing enemy crew**) *The Cruiser has been emptied of crew. You figure that's the end of it, but from the shadows steps out a Rockwoman, bearing the hat of an admiral. "You fight valiantly in the name of your allies captain. Too valiantly perhaps... the lives lost here might have been unnecessary casualities, but they knew what they were getting into."*
						1. This was all a test?
					* (**After destroying enemy ship**) *The cruiser has fallen. That'll teach the Inquisition a thing or two.*
						+ You gain a **high** scrap-only reward.
		2. This isn't a hill to die on. Leave.
			+ Nothing happens
3. Remain silent and leave.
	* Nothing happens

## Proven Loyalty

*"Yes, and it is safe to say you have passed. The Lost Suns are not sparing with their alliances. If you truly represent the Federation, then you have done a good job showing your loyalty. The Theocracy will resent ever having crossed our path with you on our side."*

* **You unlock the Lost Sun Cruiser**
	1. Continue...
		+ *"It would be criminal to not extend aid to you as well. I will provide you with quality military supplies to assist you. I have already begun the transfer of the blueprints for this very ship to the Federation, in hopes it will be used in their fight."*
			- You receive a **high** standard reward, a random weapon and Ariadne joins your crew.
	2. As a matter of fact, I did overthrow the Rock government once. (only avaiable if you have Assassinated Stonewall)
		+ *Ariadne breaks into laughter, but stops. "By the holy fires, you ARE the ship we heard about. Overthrow is hardly the word, but you have sent their homeworlds into chaos! Your efforts have been a considerable aid to ours. Allow us to help you in every way we can."*
			- You receive a **high** standard reward, you gain a random weapon, your ship is repaired by **30** hull points, your Weapons System is upgraded by **2** levels and your map is revealed. Ariadne joins your crew.
