We kind of have to put all our faith in you, so I volunteer as the healthy candidate.

@Multifarious

Are you native to this planet? I'd also like to cross reference natives and non-natives.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

Well, we have plenty of those, since we were never able to receive our shipment from the pools.
*Puts down a small box of fabrics and rests both my hands on the table*
How deep are you expecting to poke into people?

@Multifarious

My prodding is uncomfortable, but far from invasive. I try to avoid chopping people up when it becomes counterproductive to making them well.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

... No, it wouldn't.
*Turns back toward the supplies and continues sorting through goods as I speak*
But you won't find the problem here.

@Multifarious

Excellent!
*Shoves my calloused hands back into my jacket pockets*
Which is precisely why I came to you. You see, I'd like to examine a few patients from this world to get a reading on control cases. At least one well and at least one sick with a different disease would be a great place to start.

*Stops what I'm doing to look at you, then steps over and looks you up and down*
We wait all this time for some real help, and we get just one guy?
*Looks over each of your shoulders*
Who brought no equipment of any kind?

@Multifarious

Let's not be so quick to judge!
*Claps my hands together*
I'm uniquely equipped to investigate this kind of development. But on the occasion that I do need some kind of equipment I don't have with me, I'm certain borrowing a scalpel or two won't be a problem.

*You find a substantial amount of the building's population collected here, with myself directing others as they hand out food and other goods from an opened metal crate with the IA's name plastered on all of its sides*

@Multifarious

*Approaches with a disarming smile*
Hey there, the name's Lynn. I was sent by the IA to investigate this planet's situation.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*You find one with relative ease, but it seems devoid of activity as well. A few individuals do round the corner from a far hallway, coming from where signs indicate would be a cafeteria*

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

I trust you to get it done. You know the drill- The mission is yours to handle, and from this point forward, I know nothing.

@Armed Forces

Mmm...
*Follows the crowd and looks for obvious staff*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*You find the desk area empty, with no one present to meet you*

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

*Stops and looks at you momentarily, then takes Luke's folder from the inside of my coat*
Would it ever kill you to respond first?

@Armed Forces

Hm—
*Wanders, looking for a staff area entrance*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*The small handfuls of people watch you, but don't get in your way or otherwise directly approach you as you do*

@Armed Forces

*Enters through the front door and makes my way to the reception desk with a smile*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

Godspeed.
*In a flash of blue, with almost no buildup, you view suddenly changes as you stand on the inside of a metallic fence in the grass, and beyond the fence lies another layer of makeshift barricading, beyond which the skyline of a city is visible, but nothing on the ground level from where you stand. From over your shoulder, the murmurs of a few surprised folks are heard*

@Armed Forces

*Turns around with a disarming wave toward the residents and starts toward the entrance of the hospital*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

Wouldn’t blame you at all if you did, in this case.
*Motions to the pad*
Go ahead and step on, and Lieutenant Hale will send you down. To the courtyard, specifically, so don’t be concerned that you end up outside at first.

@Armed Forces

All sounds like a plan.
*Steps onto the circle*
Whenever you're ready!
