... Huh?


I may be able to configure this lab’s successor to analyze the ambient conditions and log files to simulate the past day of activity.
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

I don’t suppose you can be faulted for that. A disaster scenario like this isn’t easily predictable.


Hm...
*Runs my hand across the wall*
That... has a chance to work.
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

It seems like it could slightly be modified to become a frightening weapon. I’m surprised it was just deprecated and not entirely decommissioned.


That would be a waste of the lab’s computational power, given the resources required to build it. Its successor has much more fine-grained controls for simulated realities.
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

You brought up your familiarity.


That’s one of the many reasons this lab is deprecated. Its containment mechanisms are deficient for information of this level of sensitivity.
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

This kind of mercy that you found? It’s not normal. For whatever reason, the three of us were bonded in this quest of sorts in place of you being doomed to death for something you really had no control over. Other people would not get the same mercy.


I see. Did I bring up my distaste for infohazards?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Well...
*Finally dusts the combat debris off myself*
You, Zoey, me and this mystery person are all bonded in ensuring the information is quelled. So it’s in our best interest to find them and make sure they’re on the same page as us. Until then, maybe it’s best that you keep what you know up here.
*Taps my head*
For the time being.


Out of curiosity, what would have happened if the information were to rapidly spread?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Not one that’s immediately obvious. You’re sure it can’t be someone you know?


I would have avoiding breaking into the lab entirely if I could have asked someone else for access.
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Mystical businesspeople like that rub me the wrong way... I definitely was planning on never having more than that brief interaction again.


Is there some other possibility?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

There’s a chance. I have a feeling it’ll be tough to find her to find out.


She offered to do business with you. Perhaps that could be a lead?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

No, it’s explicitly an actual being. Someone with sentience and intelligence.


That second individual claimed to have access to my lab. Could it have been her?
