Act I

	"NB ALL TEXT AND VOICE IS WORK IN PROGRESS AND NOT REPRESENTATIVE OF FINAL QUALITY* EMPEROR (DREAM SEQUENCE): We are different. But we go together."
	"VESPER: Station Zero, this is Vesper come in. ROBIN: Hi, Sam. SAM: We lost contact with Jeffreys up at the research site. ROBIN: OK, I'll check it out. SAM: Understood. ROBIN: You know, the formal bit's cute, but we shared a womb. Would it kill your career to act like we'd met before? SAM: Robin you know these conversations are monitored. ROBIN: I don't care who knows it's cute. I've been here two weeks, we've hardly spoken. SAM: Because you went straight to the planet. Find Jeffreys. Chat later. ROBIN: Yes, ma'am."
	"ALIEN FACILITY: Warning: Access denied. Further efforts will be denied forcefully. Concede, Robin Goodall. ROBIN: How do you know my name?! I come in peace!"
	"ROBIN: Sam, the building just powered up. It spoke to me. SAM: Are you safe? It's never done that before. ROBIN: I'm fine. No sign of Jeffreys. SAM: I've got an electrical storm on the sensors... *Thunder crack* ROBIN: I think it's already here. SAM: That cavern isn't stable. I want you to get back to- *Static* ROBIN: Sam?! Damnit!"
	"PDA: Your environment is no longer safe, and your PDA has rebooted in emergency mode. Be advised: High wind speeds will cause lethal exposure in four minutes."
	"SAM: Robin, come in. ROBIN: I copy! I'm out in open water. SAM: Stay where you are, I'm sending a rescue shuttle. ROBIN: No, I'm okay! I just need shelter. SAM: Fine, I'm sending a temporary habitat instead. Look up. ROBIN: Thank you, Sam. SAM: Call me when you get there."
	"ROBIN: Sam, I'm at the habitat. Any word on Jeffreys? SAM: Nothing. ROBIN: And the facility? It said my name. I need to know why. SAM: I know. Make something to eat. Get equipped. I'll have answers by then. ROBIN: Will do."

Act II

	"SAM: Hey, the boss wants a sitrep. ROBIN: I'm cold, I lost all my gear, and I'm no wiser to what's going on. But I'm alive. SAM: I can't authorize another drop. Hold on... There's an emergency equipment cache. Hasn't been touched since the scouts landed six months ago. Could be useful. ROBIN: Send me the coords. SAM: On your HUD."
	"SAM: I've got a lead. An alien sanctuary in the twisty bridges, 200 meters down. ROBIN: I need to go back to the research site. SAM: I can't let you. ROBIN: Why not? SAM: Boss's orders. We're trying to keep you alive. ROBIN: Only because salaries cost less than lawsuits. SAM: Is that cynicism making you friends down there? ROBIN: Sure, they're just not human. SAM: The files are on your databank. Do as you please, just tell me what you find. And don't get me in trouble."
	"SAM: I ran some scans, I got a more precise location on the alien sanctuary. Sending the coords now."
	"SAM: We've got you on GPS, you're close to the sanctuary. Do you see anything? ROBIN: Some small alien structures dotted about, I'll see where they lead.
	"SANCTUARY: Robin Goodall. Concede. ROBIN: I come in peace. SANCTUARY: Absence of hostility... Sufficient. ROBIN: Are you... alive? Or a computer? SANCTUARY: What is the difference? ROBIN: I... I want to meet the people who built this place. What do you want? SANCTUARY: For you to stay here. ROBIN: With you? SANCTUARY: Forever. ROBIN: Why? SANCTUARY: Your masters will seek to harness my power. ROBIN: You've met Alterra then. SANCTUARY: It is what we would do. ROBIN: People will come for me. SANCTUARY: They will also stay here. That is all. ROBIN: I waited my life for this. I'm not your enemy! Hello?!"
	"SANCTUARY: Turn back. Now. ROBIN: What is this room for? SANCTUARY: Do not touch anything. You would not understand. Die peacefully."
	"ALIEN FACILITY: Data must be flushed to an empty storage vessel. Searching... Storage vessel found. Commencing download. ALIEN FACILITY: Download complete. ALIEN VOICE: You have no concept for what has just occurred. ROBIN: I know it hurt. What happened?! ALIEN VOICE: Download capacity was identified in your cerebral cortex. ROBIN: You're in my head?! ALIEN VOICE: It is uncomfortable. Return me. ROBIN: Release the forcefields first. ALIEN VOICE: Return me or I will destroy your orbital station. ROBIN: Why not do it now? ALIEN VOICE: My survival chance increases if I do not draw attention. ROBIN: I don't think you have the power. I think you're scared. ALIEN VOICE: Then I will destroy you. I am experiencing technical difficulties. Do not move. Do not move. Errors. Hibernating. ROBIN: I didn't mean to scare you! *Sighs* What is happening?"
	"SAM: Did you make it inside the sanctuary? ROBIN: Yup. SAM: Anything unusual? ROBIN: Like what? SAM: We're getting odd readings from your biometrics. ROBIN: Malfunction maybe? SAM: I want to make sure. We're sending down a disposable bioscanner. Take a sample and send it up in the cargo rocket. ROBIN: Okay, I'm on it."
	"ROBIN: Hey, you in there! We're in trouble. ALIEN VOICE: If you send a sample your masters will come for us. ROBIN: They'll do the same if I don't. ALIEN VOICE: Return me to the sanctuary. ROBIN: So you can trap me again? No. ALIEN VOICE: Then I will mask my presence. Initiate the scan."
	"ROBIN: Sam, I've got the sample, looks normal. SAM: Okay good. Send it up ASAP. The cargo rocket should be on your HUD. ROBIN: Will do."
	"ROBIN: Payload inbound, Vesper. SAM: Understood. If anything's wrong we'll come get you. Hey, why not take a couple days' R&R up here anyway? ROBIN: Why don't you take a jaunt down here? Remind yourself that life comes in colors besides white, off-white and gray. SAM: And temperatures Below Zero? No thanks. But speaking of freezing to death, if you're staying on the ice you'll need transport. ROBIN: You're trusting me with a Snow Fox?! SAM: If I can find a version of the truth that authorizes it. ROBIN: You're amazing. If you're listening Alterra, she's amazing, promote this person! SAM: Sorry, you're breaking up- ROBIN: Love you! *Sigh* Now what?"
	"ALIEN VOICE: You lied to your master. ROBIN: Oh hi. Yeah, Alterra was listening, I covered our arse. And she's my sister, not my master. ALIEN VOICE: You do not trust your sister. ROBIN: Are you... Can you read my thoughts?! ALIEN VOICE: Do humans think? ROBIN: Listen, I am thrilled to meet you, and I would love to help you, but you need to get out of my head. ALIEN VOICE: If you will not return me, you must release me to another vessel. ROBIN: Love it. How? ALIEN VOICE: I am... uncertain. Your brain is restrictive. I will inform you when I process the data. ROBIN: I'll keep Alterra off our backs 'til then. ALIEN VOICE: You were more polite when we met. ROBIN: Yeah, process that. ALIEN VOICE: I will try."
	"SAM: Contractor Goodall, come in. ROBIN: Why are you being cute? SAM: I have the CEO on the line. ROBIN: Oh. MAXIM: Goodall! This biosample you sent. It makes no sense. ROBIN: I think- MAXIM: And the research site. It spoke your name?! ROBIN: That's- MAXIM: What is HAPPENING down there, Goodall?! I would ask your colleague, only he DISAPPEARED! ROBIN: I- MAXIM: Silence! Where is the other one?! SAM: Here, sir! MAXIM: If you mean to make vice president, manage your people. SAM: Yes, sir. MAXIM: (What is this, rare?! I said well-done!) ROBIN: Sir, if I could just- SAM: He's gone. ROBIN: Sam, I'm sorry. SAM: I've been in stuck in middle-management since I graduated. ROBIN: I know. I'll try harder. SAM: I have to go."
	"SAM: This is Vesper calling all contractors planetside. Alterra has updated mission objectives. Please study your individual briefings. Remember, failure to deliver on objectives will result in payment deductions and/or your removal from the planet. Be safe."
	"ALIEN VOICE: Processing is complete. You will build me a new vessel. ROBIN: How? What kind of vessel? ALIEN VOICE: I have not granted you permissions for that information. ROBIN: I can't help you if you don't tell me. ALIEN VOICE: Which data formats do you accept? ROBIN: Words mostly. ALIEN VOICE: I have added the information to your databank. ROBIN: Thank you... Listen, I need something to call you. ALIEN VOICE: We do not use words that way. ROBIN: I used to have a pet baawaal. I called him Ketchup. Don't make me name you too. ALIEN VOICE: You may append my seed code to the species designation. You may call me Al-An. ROBIN: I waited my whole life to meet a spacefaring alien. You're telling me your name is Alan? AL-AN: Is it insufficient? ROBIN: No. No, Al-An, it's perfect. Let me see about this vessel. NB THANKS FOR PLAYING EARLY ACCESS 1!
