![]() Why, why do I keep fixing that problem only knowing it is just going to come back? I’m a victim of some horrible cosmic joke, that must be it, she thought as she waited for the gold and copper skinned android to finish the report. But the repetition, hmmm, that’s new, not seen that before. she wondered as she circled the console where Malcolm work furiously typing in override commands and instructions. Malcolm, she said as she placed a hand softly on the androids shoulder. Can you pause for a moment and give me an update on the scout units I asked to be sent to the ruin site, please? ![]()
![]() The tall silver skinned woman sighed, and placed her hand on her forehead, rubbing her temples gently I just fixed that syntax error a few hours ago and already it’s back again. I must break down that code separation next time. She thought to herself as she walked through the cavernous shuttle bay. No, we won’t be returning to the moor. I’ve got something else I want to look at. It’s to the north. We shouldn’t be away more than a week. Send four of the scouting units to the moor. Use one of the rafts that were repaired last month. Set it to the coordinates of the ruin. Have it land and deploy the scouts, then remain in place for ten hours. I want full analysis, full video and energy plana-metrics recorded. Then have the raft return and wait for us to get back. After the scouts have collected ten hours of data, and downloaded everything to the raft, set them to engage and destroy and send them in the four cardinal coordinates. That is all. We depart in four hours ![]()

My Valet, Malcolm, will be here shortly with a payment that should cover your standard fee, plus expenses for one week. Tonight, say sunset, I'll return and tell you exactly what it is I need from you. ![]()
![]() … a shadowy silver skinned figure in a red robe hunches over a strange looking curio style cabinet covered with lights and strange protruding knobs, dials, and switches. I’ve told you not to call me Sir. And why do you keep referreing to yourself in the plural. I thought I fixed that. Never mind, listen carefully. If what we have discovered and accomplished here is complete, the Strangler will be anchored to this plane upon the next complete cycle. I want you to load the sled, leave nothing behind. I am setting the gate to recharge and discharge on a six hour cycle. Set the lock on the Strangler’s cage to eight hours from now. We are leaving in two hours. |
