Sleeping Dragons

A group of protestors are demanding that their families be released from stasis. Speak with the Nexus leadership about how best to resolve the situation.

Acquisition
After founding an outpost on Eos and deciding whether to make it research-based or military-based, upon returning to the Nexus, you will find that protestors have taken up residence in the Hydroponics area. You acquire the first step simply by going near them. You can also talk to one of the militia members in the area for a brief commentary.

Speak with the protestors
Speaking with Rhys, one of the protestors, you find that they are angry with both the leadership of the Nexus and with the Pathfinder's decision for Prodromos, as it has pushed their families further back in deployment priority and separated them into different blocks. Regardless of your dialogue choices, they want you to speak with Nexus leadership to get their family members out of cryo.

Speak with Kandros
Informing Kandros of the situation, he gathers the other Nexus leaders to discuss the issue. They say that there are simply not enough resources or space to wake up the families; even with Prodromos, sending extra people there could be trouble. Ryder can choose to agree with them or say that the protestors are right.

Speak with the protestors
If Ryder decides to keep the people in cryo, they need to go speak to the protestors. Upon arrival, the protest has gotten heated, and the militia is stepping in to escort the protestors away. Depending on Ryder's response, Rhys will either stay on or leave the Nexus.

Authorize stasis revivals
If Ryder decides to wake up the families, they are given authority to do so from the Colonial Affairs deck. Rhys approaches Ryder while they are inputting the override and thanks them for their choice. However, with the new additions to the Nexus, resources are even leaner, and personnel on the Hyperion must wait further to be released.
