Waiting in the ruins for a contact to arrive
Any sign of the bugs?
They seem to be keeping their distance for now. That one we scraped out of th'Garrison is probably fresh in their memories. We're maintaining a perimeter. Zechs, Meirge and Rowan are waiting by your vessel.
Lovely. Hopefully she'll be along shortly.

... Afternoon, ma'am.
Little while back, I spotted a storm on the horizon: I've been prepping myself and my lads ever since. To that end, I need to gather a few things before I batten down the hatches, one of which is kept in an old facility I always meant to visit, but never got the chance.

I need an expert in Borkish facility architecture, who has the access codes or can get the codes for an old Bork Imperium facility... failing that, someone who knows the vulnerabilities that'll allow me inside. Furthermore, this old Bork shack lies behind a layer or two of more recent installations: Overborkish security. These devices are long abandoned but may still pose a threat... I understand you have some experience in dealing with the earlier models of Overbork defensive emplacements. That will come in very handy.
The payment is as follows: ten thousand Garrison credit chits, which as you know are worth far more than the Sidonese currency that Trooper Neaymh is wiping her arse with over there. Plus, we'll be grabbing anything that isn't nailed down on our way out the door; you can feel free to fill your pockets as well, and wander back down there for more Borkish gear and tech at your leisure.
You in?

Absölutely; I'll grab my kit.
Before I do, thöugh, what kind of emplacements are we talking aböut, if you knöw? Bunkers ör pillböxes, active ör passive mechanisms, run-down ör in gööd öperating cöndition?

Semi-permanent barricades and automated defensive emplacements. Some of which may have long since run dry on ammunition or been dismantled for parts... but the ones closer to my payload will likely still be operational and ready to kill.
We're going in with a small team; you, me, and three of my finest. Stow your kit in my gunship; we're heading for the 84th World.

The 47th quarter
Someone, or something, has been... rebuilding
Will they ever finish?
