After THE Umbral Dawn explode and see the bible goblin managed to dodge part of the blast, Mik'al try to shoot but his shot bounces off a stalagmite.
Talisman follows but despite the cover provided by the same stalagmite that stops Mik'al's shot he manages to zap the goblin!
Then Xenal moves to help and encourages THE Umbral Dawn to stay in the fight and provides aid to her other comrades.
Holsin calls for Torag's help and a gigantic old fashioned Warhammer appears just next to the big goblin and starts harassing it!
Being burned by THE Umbral Dawn, Polbak continues to punch him.

The holder may use their coin to gift a reroll with their star bonus to someone at their table who does not have a reroll from a different source. CSC bearers may still utilize a reroll from a different source.
At this juncture I'd like to use my coin to grant Xenal a reroll on his Pike attack, also granting him a +4 bonus from my GM Novas!
THE Umbral Dawn hit twice the big goblin, wounding him.
As Xenal's pike was going to stab THE Umbral Dawn something strange happened, a flash of light and with awe she realized that rather than hitting her comrade, she hits the goblin quite heavily!
Thanks to Xenal's encouragements and aid, Mik'al's shot hit also the Polbak in the face! He grunts in pain as his suits starts to glitch a little.
Talisman is not so lucky and he miss helping his friend with a non so well placed shot.
Holsin moves to be able to heal the Lashunta if needed.
Big Genius was torn between retaliate again Xenal or continuing fight THE Umbral Dawn but he continues on the bright Lashuntas.
This time, THE Umbral Dawn starts bleeding as he's it once!
Mik'al quickly disables the environmental's protection of the goblin's armor but he's hit in retaliation!
As the gas quickly enters the goblin's armor, he fights off the poison!
Only THE Umbral Dawn's second attack find his target.
The big goblin even greening, stands proud.
You will not kill me! I'm INVINCIBLE!
Nevertheless, you see it bleeding from his numerous wounds!
Xenal's pike bounces off the goblin's big armor!
Holsin continues to move at his path toward THE Umbral Dawn.
Laughing maniacally the goblin continue his attacks on THE Umbral Dawn, making him bleed again.
INVINCIBLE, I AM INVICIBLE!!!
As he talks in fury, he gaps for air ...
And he starts turning even greener if possible!
And Xenal's pike goes through the goblin's armor breach!
When she gets it out, the goblin fall dead... and the falls of the goblin echoes gently through the cavern before all goes silent.
Holsin heals THE Umbral Dawn with Torag's power.
May Torag, heals your wounds, mighty warrior
The camera crew seems quite happy to have been able to record the last strike!
says Well done, this fight was EPIC! The viewers liked it a lot. The show has its best rates in years!
With the goblins defeated, you can freely explore the cavern and find the large door, followed by the crew. The goblins’ tools, explosives, and other gear is scattered haphazardly about, available for you to use in opening the door. .

"Well done, everyone." He will address his fellow Starfinders as well as Holsin, not paying much mind to the cameras.
If the team decides to take a short rest, Talisman of Harmony will meditate near Xenal, using his abilities to buoy her, restoring one of her resolve points at the cost of one of his own.
~~~
Not being strong of arm or tech-savvy, Talisman will call his brother over to assist Mik'al.
looks at the clock on her datapad and says. You're right. We can take a pause before you open this door.
She turns back to the camera and says. After this Fight, what will the Starfinder's will found behind these doors? What will happen. You will know it, after THAT
She snaps her finger, and the crew starts mounting the Booth as she made a sign to THE Umbral Dawn.
Please, come in.
As refreshments and make-up crew come around the resting Starfinders, THE Umbral Dawn is bring to the Booth.
We are now with " Umbral Dawn" from this mission. A unique chance to know him better.
She turns to you and starts asking question
I was quite impressed, as well as the viewers by your ability to bring "light" to your enemy, as well as your numerous names. How have you gotten such talent, and earned so many names?
She continues with a series a question, waiting each time for your answer.
What has surprised you about what you’ve found here?
Why are you better than your companions?
You’ve been really polite around everyone. How do you really feel?
What do you thing of what's have been done to these Dwarves?
What do you thing you will find beyond these doors?
What about being a Starfinder makes you mad?

THE Umbral Dawn takes the time to recharge his energy before heading off to the interview.
"How have you gotten such talent, and earned so many names?"
"I have earned each name through courage, sweat and blood."
What has surprised you about what you’ve found here?
"I have not seen anything that has surprised me."
Why are you better than your companions?
"IF I am better, it is only better because of my training as a Battleflower and the exacting standards I set for myself. Most people find it acceptable to strive for good enough. This is fine for them but THE Umbral Dawn accepts nothing less than perfection."
You’ve been really polite around everyone. How do you really feel?
"My companions have performed their duties...adequately. And some times they have even gone beyond what is required. The crew has not gotten in my way. There has been no reason to be...impolite."
What do you thing of what's have been done to these Dwarves?
"I have been shocked to see that the dwarves here have allowed themselves to degenerate into such a sorry state. It is shameful."
What do you think you will find beyond these doors?
"Where ever I go, I find honor. I have no fear of whatever may lie beyond. If you would like uninformed speculation, perhaps you should ask someone else."
What about being a Starfinder makes you mad?
"Why do you think I am angry? I just have high standards and I am disappointed when they cannot be met because of an unreliable or lazy ally."
seems quite happy with THE Umbral Dawn answers and thanks him for being such a delight in front of a camera.
If you think of changing Path and starts a new carrier as an actor give me a call.
She give the Lashunta her professional card.
She adds with a crocked smile For anything else, you have my personal number on the back.
Once THE Umbral Dawn his out of the booth, the cameras are ready to continue to shoot the Starfinders in action to open the door.
But, after two failed attempt that not even let a scratch on the door, seems quite disappointed.
She turns to the camera and says It seems that the only thing that can resist to a team of Starfinder is a simple door... Will they be able to do it?
She turns to the Starfinders once again, the camera crew filming their efforts.
As it seems the door is the biggest difficulty that the Starfinders met for this mission and the undead crew clearly loose their patience and Wazasha looks at her datapad with worries, Talisman after the last try from Mik'al knock at the door and... it opens!
jumps immediately and says WAIT! Let the camera crew move first to shot your first reaction when you enter, it will do great show!
She throws the adds, after announcing at the camera What will the Starfinder, will discover behind these doors? Dwarfs? Dangers? ANSWERS?!
YOU WILL NOT AFTER THAT!
Once the doors opened, the camera crew go first, ready to catch the first moment when the Starfinders will move.
Light set, make-up redo Wazasha waits for the end of the add to give the go!
The door exits onto an elevated walkway that runs along the length of a horizontal cylindrical space that’s several hundred feet in diameter and that extends as far as the eye can see to the right and left. At several points along its visible length lie heavy doors like the one the Starfinders opened. Most notably, though, you spot a digital terminal near your door, its display glowing with strange alien text that quickly cycles through various forms before stopping on Common. At a second glance, you can see that each of the doors along this huger gallery have a similar terminal next to them, suggesting there are untold numbers of other simulation chambers sustaining other artificial worlds within the moon !
Once the camera crew have taking a shot at you and at the terminal and as the chamber’s sensors detect the toxic gas and begin venting it out of the Quest for Sky simulation, says Guys, I think this is a perfect cliffhanger to stop filming!
Please, assemble for one final action shot, like you all posing together like victorious explorers as the poisonous fog billows past you. It will be great!
The camera crew snaps dozens of pictures for promotional purposes with Wazasha directing you to take different pose.
Just after the camera crew takes the last set of pictures, asks aloud How about we hear how they’re wrapping up the event in the studio?
She pulls up a program on her wrist computer, which plays the live audio feed with Zo! shouting excitedly.
What a discovery! What a destination! What a band of unlikely heroes! What could lie deeper in Salvation’s End? Find out on the next episode of Live Exploration Extreme! when the Starfinder Society returns to—
shouts Luwazi with alarm from near Zo!’s microphone. That was not part of our deal, Zo! You can’t just add a sequel when we haven’t—
Zo!’s voice insistently cuts back in. Ha ha! And now a word from our sponsors!
A booming add for Nova Solutions blares out of Wazasha’s computer before she closes the program, rolls her eyes, and orders the teams to retrace their way to the surface.
You might be eager to explore the simulation gallery beyond, but Wazasha warns you that there are likely more deadly threats beyond, and that Luwazi Elsebo would want to give them a proper debriefing before sending them deeper into the unknown. Furthermore, there’s still the question of what to do with the Marbleheart dwarves.
The gaping hole through which you arrived and the open door into this chamber shatter the artificial existence in which the dwarves have lived for at least a century, and the existence of a larger galaxy beyond their tiny world may inspire some to travel the stars. For others, the stress may be too much without patient mentors to guide their path. It’s clear, though, that given the malfunctioning machinery, remaining in the simulation isn’t a viable option.
Back on the Exemplarion, Luwazi seems somewhat frazzled as she meets with you to hear their un-glamorized accounts of their expedition. She reports that Zo! is desperately trying to negotiate for additional filmed excursions, but so far she’s left him with a curt “We’ll see.” Prior to dismissing you, Luwazi asks for the group’s thoughts on whether Live Exploration Extreme! should return for another episode or not.
Otherwise, you are free to partake in the endless festivities on the Exemplarion, where they can bask in the fame and infamy of their respective performances.
The PCs arrive back at Absalom Station shortly after the live broadcast reaches the Pact Worlds. You all get invited as guests to a host of programs, game shows, nightclubs, and other events. Sadly, the fame only lasts for about a week, after which the news cycle quickly latches onto new short-term celebrities. It’s only a matter of time before you receive your next call to explore the galaxy and make a name for themselves.
