-
At the same time, another group is hit
- Giant brain and partially broken android are also falling
- Asper’s systems working, 26 laws of power’s shut off
- Unfortunately, this foam may kill 26, it applies gravity to the massive brain
- Deploying the foam allows you to stop hearing

- E: your ship is not salvageable.
- Almado immediately stepping in front of miku, trying to body block

This ship crashed a while ago as well
- On impact, it crashed through frozen over termite mounds or giant ant mounds with no creatures rn
- No smoke, no sounds of life
- Some creatures awake, able to see small desert rat-like prints but heavier than they should be
- Heavy enough to crack the ice, wings made out of metal whirling
- Creatures gone over the side of the cliff, around this time that a flare activates on the other side of a valley abt 2ish miles away, on top of a mesa
- Rat explodes
-
Combat
-
Crashed pod, similar to our own, but better condition
- Emergency pod, made to survive impacts
- The sunshades inside come from Cosmo Town, cheap sunshades worn by tourists
- Taking the batteries removes the blinking light from the pod
- Black box and most of the technical parts are stripped, its been about 10 kiliv-iv days, roughly 6ish months
-
Flare is still there on the cliff
- Leads to sand that has shifted in the 6 months
-
Down into the valley
- The Long Mile
- Rocks glow like jade, able to see groups of bugs moving along the side as we approach
- Bugs hiss at us, move toward us
- (some false, some true) highest ?, lowest will Creatures that are odd, part of a study here, every 4th generation is born with sentience. Typically this is an incredibly small force of them. Ppl dont come here bc the mindless ones hunt down other species with sentience. Prevent other creatures to develop sentience
- Leader recognizes tech creatures
- Once the leader dies the rest all scatter like regular animals
- Circuitry in the sand, looks to be bronze, makes a planetwide circuitry network
- Xep touching it makes them nauseous again
- They let it knock them out
- Dreams of the stars heading outward
- They dont make sense of it, they are floating, hand falls off their body, same with legs and toes, all going to different destinations
- They let it knock them out
- They are asleep for a minute, felt like a few hours
- Asper and miku touch it
- Asper is asleep for an hour, dreaming of being reforged
- Initially painful, but did subside into pleasantness
- Miku is asleep for a minute
- Did not understand what it meant but it was not painful
- Asper is asleep for an hour, dreaming of being reforged
-
Mesa creates a sharp ascent, 90 degrees, then 100
- Somewhat like a tabletop, we can enter caves that may wind their way up
- Occasionally blinking emergency lights that last for the next few (earth) days
-
Core
- Coolant and heatant pipes
- Approach core, a woman walks out. With small scamp and dragon. Approaches xep, speaks in vesk
- “Do you wish to drink? Gamble? All is available to you here!”
- Hologram fully, but divots are made in the sand when she walks
- There are no thoughts
- E: what brings you to this place?
- “What brings you here? Hungry? Horny? Lucky?”
- E: where are we?
- “Right where we need to be.”
- “Would you like a refreshing drink? Would you like to go to Sexico-6? What form of thirsty are you?”
- E: a beverage please
- “Please provide id!”
- “Yes of course! Please escort yourself out of the premises before we attack!”
- Sphere looks odd
- multiple self assemblies inside
- Appears like an egg
- Multiple exit ports for what hatched inside
- Dragonet is said, if it appears at your table on The Serenade, it brings luck
- “No counterfeit mascots allowed on the premises”
- Unmarked credits from an unknown source
-
Climb up, see a cargo ship made for long distant voyage, comes complete with bunk beds
- Has a gravity pool for long distance travel, currently has a breach
-
Egg has signs of internal combustion, burning the circuits within
- When company secrets Would be exposed, the obvious answer is Burn It
-
As nivaya fixes up the ship, the signals of comms units arrive, all at once
- “No report hidden, no report required” seems that almado has been sending reports consistently, all in standard writing format in complete text
- Siryu to ASPER: “small problem encountered, won’t be picking you up, survive for a day or more”
- Nivaya cant do an airtight hole, IT ISNT AIRTIGHT
- Thru the ship comms is a signal: “any of the crash survivors, please report. Please respond.”
- Almado gives the date, survivors, approx location
- “You survived?”
- Al: roger.
- “The mistress would like to hear from you immediately. Ill send a GPS ping.”
-
Arrive at Storm's Eye
- Ship is parked outside bubble, person meets us
- “Pleasure to meet you. How did you all survive?”
- M: the power of friendship!
- Al: and unwavering violence.
- “Thats what i like to hear. Can you tell me about the violence?”
- “You’re corporate?”
- “Im just a simple biologist, but i do work for Madam Zaera Allhaven.”
- “I of course work under her, im sure youre aware of her various things, she serves Veyra and N’Zhereth”
- “Youre the first recorded survivors outside the dead zone. How did you survive the hundreds of (bugs)”
- “Their swarms have lessened”
- E: we shot the leader
- “How many? There are no less than 10 observed, assuming they were sentient, and the sentient all live under ground.”
- Al: we didnt encounter many, we found the remains of smth called septico six?
- “Hmm, i wouldnt know anything about that.”
- (she is a devout of Veyra and N’Zhereth. Observing nearby species. shes known for unorthodox methods, trying to create sentience in the nearby populations, trying to do a population control. Eugenics on the local species. Every 3 of the population is stillborn then the 4th will be sentient, which creates a fully sentient species w a low birth rate.)
- (god of death and mutation. She has a bubble here, extort natural resources, people dying over psuedo winters. Allowing her to observe winters at a faster rate. See how things adapt. If she could play an active role, shed love to.)
- (she is technically exiled in Concord of Aedryn space, but shes in Hollow Stars space so whatever happens happens. Not technically allied with any major faction. Immense knowledge, she is an elf, will outlive a lot.)
- (man is dressed in garb that copies those of the ones she is willing to date as of late.)
- “Can i introduce you to her as the first survivors?”
- Yes of course!
