Object

Trillium 323

Trillium 323 appears as a specifically numbered allotment of the prized resource 'Trillium.' The scene provides no physical detail—its material, size, and appearance remain unspecified—yet it registers as a discrete, transferrable lot invoked aloud during diplomacy. In the observation lounge delegates treat the item as a concrete bargaining chip: Leyor announces Caldonia's withdrawal and reveals Trillium 323 has been promised away; Devinoni publicly accepts the transfer while Riker visibly loses negotiating leverage.

Purpose

A negotiable strategic resource lot used as an object of transfer and bargaining between polities during diplomatic negotiations.

Significance

Trillium Coup — Caldonia Withdraws; Devinoni Claims the Prize

Trillium 323 functions as the contested bargaining chip whose public transfer decides which bidder gains decisive advantage; its promised conveyance to the Chrysalians is verbally declared and thereby removes it from Federation negotiations.

Before: Owned/controlled by the Caldonian delegation as a sovereign resource under negotiation.

After: Declared promised to the Chrysalians; effectively removed from consideration in the Federation's combined bid.
