Supervisor Perlica, we are currently occupied with the Hub Base recovery. Organizing the landslide-clearing team may take a while.
The "side opposing the origins of life"...
Traces at the scene match the patterns. But how did Nefarith...?
Uh, Supervisor Perlica?
Oh ... apologies. I was a little distracted. Please, make haste with the preparations. The true objectives of our opponents must be identified quickly.
I understand. These Landbreakers are far beyond ordinary bandits.
Director Qin, have we ever detected any individual in Valley IV who is ... capable of manipulating the Æther directly?
What?
No, such abilities are not possible. The Æther is simply too dangerous. Our attempts to study the Æther are severely hampered by its lethality. No human individual can make direct contact with the Æther safely...
After all, the Æther is the "side opposing the origins of life"... right?
Yes, but we're all familiar with the textbook footnote on this quote. The Terrans did not have a full understanding of the secrets held by this planet.
...That's true. In any case, there are plenty of matters on our hands that we must deal with.
Okay, is there anything we can do to help?
Yeah... Please help Andre at the Core AIC Area. We'll be preparing our supplies at that place.
