Quilan contacted Alanik cytonically after the game between [[Independence]] and Unity pilots, telling her to report to the Council chambers. Alanik refused, but after a conversation with [[Rinakin]] they docked their ship at Quilan's orders. When Rinakin attempted to speak diplomatically with him, Quilan shot a concussion bolt at him. Communicating telepathically, Alanik learned that Quilan planned to turn her and Rinakin over to the [[Superiority]] in order to prove his worth to them. She managed to escape by hyperjumping to [[Detritus]], to Quilan's displeasure.{{book ref|sf2|3}} |

⚫ | When Alanik returned to ReDawn along with members of [[Skyward Flight]], Quilan commanded the offense against them and told the pilots to bring Alanik in alive. He sensed the cytonic powers of [[Jorgen]] and the [[taynix]] and was confused by it.{{book ref|sf2|9}} He contacted Jorgen telepathically, but Jorgen did not respond. He then chased after Alanik and attacked her ship with mindblades, which she dodged, but he successfully hit her with a concussion bolt, forcing her to crash-land on the platform.{{book ref|sf2|10}} Quilan and his Unity forces retreated to regroup after this battle, as they had no teleportation abilities and could not approach the platform without being fired on by the autoturrets.{{book ref|sf2|11}} |

− | During the battle between the DDF and Independence versus Unity forces at Tower, Jorgen used [[Boomslug]] to fire mindblades at Quilan's forces. Quilan called upon the other Unity cytonics to create areas where cytonic powers were inhibited in order to stall until the Superiority could arrive to retrieve Alanik, Rinakin, and the human allies.{{book ref|sf2|21}} When Alanik went to rescue Rinakin, she realized that the man Unity has been presenting to the public as Rinakin is actually a dione in disguise, and Quilan had imprisoned the true Rinakin.{{book ref|sf2|20}} Quilan attempted to shoot Alanik down, but she killed him at the same time as Skyward Flight shot down another cytonic and turned the tide of the battle.{{book ref|sf2|21}} |
