![]() ![]() More alarmingly, Science Officer reports that the sole inhabitant of the outpost, the mysterious "exile," has gone missing and is nowhere to be found. The equipment - functional, cheap, intended to be abandoned - is well-used, and the local databanks are filled with detailed but ultimately mundane accounts of the planet as well as the simple experiments that were carried out in its harsh environment.Ĭuriously, no closer examination seems to have been made of the mineral outcropping the outpost's foundations rest on scans by the indicate that the geological formation, a mountain mostly buried under ice, may be partially hollow. The outpost on is nearing the end of its lifespan, but the planet's intense chill has yet to critically degrade the impermanent structure. It is little but a temporary shelter erected against the savage elements, allowing surface-level planetary study for a limited time before it wears down and conditions become untenable. There is nothing unusual about the research outpost itself. Texts from other shrines should help us piece it all together. Not long after they had the ceiling, walls and floor imaged in a spiral pattern. Science Officer was about to call the mission a failure when, looking up as they irritably paced along the edges of the circular space, they realized that discrete lines of cohesive text were momentarily forming before their eyes, melting away only to be replaced by new lines. apparently considered physically separating the lacquer from the inlaid text, but realized that the strange glyphs would doubtlessly have been made misshapen to begin with, only to assume their proper shape when viewed correctly through the lens of the lacquer. Next, the crew of the attempted bombarding the lacquer with light of varying wavelengths and intensity, but no beneficial reactions were observed. Initial attempts at unscrambling the text, relying on the raw processing power of the 's computers to reconstruct the text from plain images, proved fruitless as it was simply too distorted to place in any known lingual family tree. They recognized early on that a text in some logographic script is inlaid in the walls, heavily distorted by the layers of translucent lacquer. Science Officer has reported back with the 's findings at the Percipient's shrine. Reward: Rock Brain Linguistics modifier added, giving the following effects: Codebreaking: +1 (Permanent Empire Modifier). Option 1: Is there anything we can do to help you?

Option 1: Do you understand that we are not you? Option 1: On second thought, this seems ill-advised.Ībort any attempts to contacting ‹astroid› directly, and study it from afar: +2 Physics, +2 Biology Update Note: Third Option: Lithoid Empire Gain 18x physics output (potential yield gain of 350 ~ 100000). ![]()
