UGT: Unknown
Location: Unknown yellow dwarf system
----------------------------------------
The way to the command centre had been... challenging. While I had previously thought that ASO-17309 had reached the last days of its life, now I questioned how the station still existed at all! The officer quarters had been in suprisingly good condition. According to Aso, this was due to the location of said quarters, that somehow survived unscathed throughout the last 980 years. But now that I had to move to the other side of the two kilometre spanning station, I started to truly understand just how bad the situation was. Multiple times I had to take big detours or even backtrack, as Aso changed the course everey few minutes because of ongoing hullbreaks. If this went on like this, ASO-17309 wouldn`t survive much longer, that was for sure. But now, I finally stood in front of the closed metal doors, that are supposedly the entrance to the command centre of ASO-17309. "So... how do I get this door to open" I asked out aloud, by now already expecting Aso to answer.
[ Inheritor needs to transfer user identification code to main data bank, to open doors. User identification code is dispatched... ]
[ ERROR ]
[ Main data bank lost connection to ASO-17903 outpost. Main data bank changed location. Reconnecting... ]
[ ERROR ]
[ Identification codes outdated. Station reactivates automatic defensive measures ]
[ Innheritor-Protocol #2-A override! ]
[ Identification codes updated. Identification codes accepted. ]
[ ASO-17309 recognises inheritor authority. Access to command centre granted. ]
[ Welcome on deck, Captain / Inheritor. ]
"What the heck?! Aso, explain this to me!" I demanded, still overwhelmed with all the information projected into my head at once.
[ Because of relocation into inheritors built-in high-end quantic compression brain stem computer, full access to outpost systems was temporarely lost. Inheritor-Protocol #2-A allowed override of ASO-17309 defensive measures and reconnection to outpost systems. This unit is now in full control of all functioning outpost operations. ]
[ Redirecting system output information... ]
[ Outpost reconnction completed. ]
[ Status analysis completed. ]
[ This unit is now able to give complete status report to inheritor about outpost functions. ]
[ Show ASO-17309 status report? ]
[ Y/N ]
"No, hold that for now. Other things take precedence. Give me the environmental situation around us first. And don't leave anything out."
[ Current environmental situation only vaguely discernible due to lack of active scanning and damaged passive scanners. Shall the analysis be displayed anyway? ]
[ Y/N ]
"Yes, please continue. Any intel is better than none at all."
[ Current location of ASO-17309 is within a mountain range on (DATA LOST), the third moon of the gas giant (DATA LOST), which is the third planet of the (DATA LOST) system. While the first planet of the system is a gas giant as well, the second planet is a habitbale terrestrial planet. The star itself is a a standard yellow dwarf, without any particularities. There are no other natural celestial bodies worth mentioning within the system. ]
[ 89 years ago, a species listed in ASO-17309 database as "humans" started to build a colony on the second world of the system, which the Aetherian Empire classified as habitable, but otherwise irrelevant. Therefore no deeper studies of said celestial object are available within data memories. ]
[ In the last 13 years, nine space battles were fought in this system. ]
[ The defenders and owners of this system seem to be part of a galactic nation called the Second Human Federation, or "SHF" for short. The attackers call themselves the Ruidian Raider Association and seem to be remnants of (REDACTED). Termination of Ruidan Raider Association as fast as possible is advised. ]
[ At the moment the mountain on top of ASO-17309 threatens to collpase, as more and more misdirected ammunition, as well as ship debris hit the mountain range. This is a direct consequence of the space battle raging on arround the moon. ]
[ This unit advises to secure ASO-17309 and ensure that aetheric presence in the system goes undetected. Otherwise chance of inheritors death rises to 61.4%. ]
"Okay. That was... a bit much. So there is a mountain ready to collapse on our head and I guess we are currently unable to do anything against it, right? And when Im already at it, tell me what the fuck REDACTED is, because from all I know right now, it sounds pretty fucking terrifying!"

"Fine, ignore my other question than. Yes, please give me the status report."

[ This unit recommends to rectify all dire warnings as fast as possible. ]
"This... is bad. Very fucking bad. Aso, how the hell am I supposed to fix all this?! How is the outpost even still functioning at all?!"
[ Current dire warnings are direct consequences of the space battle currently being fought around ASO-17309. See list of dire warnings? ]
[ Y/N ]
"No, I fucking, don`t want to know what exactly all the problems are! I want a priority list of what I have to do, and how I have to do it, to fix this mess!"

[ Path highlighted. ]
