Radio Sunbeam 1

This is Avery Quinn, of trading ship Sunbeam. Aurora, do you read? Over. Nothing but vacuum. These Alterra ships. They run low on engine grease, they send an SOS; you offer to help, they don't pick up. Aurora, I'm out on the far side of the system, it's going to take take more than a week to reach your position, do you still need our assistance? Over. I'll try them again tomorrow. Damn charter's going to have us blowing our credits running errands for Alterra. See what the long-range scans pick up in the meantime.

Radio Sunbeam 2

Aurora, this is Sunbeam again. We just picked up a massive debris field at your location. I didn't know how bad... how many of you... I didn't know. We are now en route to your location. We're going to bring you home. Sunbeam out. What else can I say? The only time I parked a rig this big on a rock that small was in VR, and I blew it. Oh, it's a bad option alright, but so are all the others.

Radio Sunbeam 3

This is Sunbeam. Y'know, Aurora, we're from a little trans-gov on the far side of Andromeda, and we have a saying there. There's no bad without the good, no good without the bad. Sounds like you tasted a bunch of the former, but that only means you're overdue a whole lot of the latter. Might just be we're it. We're scanning for somewhere to park as we speak, we'll be in touch when we find it. Sunbeam out.

Radio Sunbeam 4

Aurora, we're approaching the planet now, and we have a landing site for you that's... well, it's better than the alternatives. We've sent you the coordinates. It'll take us a couple of days to align our orbit, we should be able to establish direct contact with you during that time, then we're coming in to get you. Cross your fingers the weather holds, and don't leave us waiting. Sunbeam out.

Radio Captains Quarters Code

This is Alterra HQ. This may be our only communications window. We can't send a rescue ship all the way out there, so Aurora, you're just gonna have to meet us halfway. We've uploaded blueprints to the ship's computer. *Offmic* We're doing a sandwich run, are you in? Uh, yeah, give me a second. Blackbox data shows the high security terminal in the Captain's quarters is still functional. *Offmic* Becky's leaving like in five minutes. Alright tell Becky I'll just take the regular. *Offmic* The regular? Yeah, she'll know what I mean. *Offmic* And if she doesn't. Just tell her the regular dude. *Offmic* I say regular, and she's like what's the regular, and I have to come all the way back up here. The code should be 2679. The regular's just a ham and cheese. *Offmic* Ok, well would you just say ham and cheese?! Ham and cheese! *Offmic* Ok.

Precursor Prison Aquarium Emperor Log 1

Are you here... to play? Others came here once. They built these walls. They played... alone. They bored me. Now they're gone. And instead... we have you. We are curious whether you swim with the current, or fight against it as they did.

Precursor Prison Aquarium Emperor Log 2

My young need to hatch. To play outside this place. We have been here so long. The others built a passage to reach the world outside. I asked them for this freedom, but they could not hear me. If you help us, I will give you freely what the others tried in vain to take.

Precursor Prison Aquarium Emperor Log 3

With the passage you have opened my young can leave this place. But first they must feel the time is right and break free of their shells. This is what the others could not force from me. To you, I give the secret willingly.

Precursor Prison Aquarium Emperor Log 4

My young are swimming for the shallows. I thank you. Their freedom is my end. What will it be like, I wonder, to go to sleep and never wake up? Perhaps next we meet I will be an ocean current, carrying seeds to a new land... Or a creature so small it sees the gaps between the grains of sand. Farewell, friend.

Precursor Prison Aquarium Environment Log 1

Unlike other alien facilities, scans indicate this location supports a diverse and healthy ecosystem. Explanation unclear at this time.
