Ah, [ST:playername ].[ST:n ]Your timing is, as always, impeccable.[ST:wait ] |
| 2 |
|
tev000191_MSG0002 |
Since I can't seem to find Vandham anywhere,[ST:n ]might I ask for your counsel instead?[ST:wait ] |
| 3 |
|
tev000191_MSG0003 |
I've just received an emergency request from a team[ST:n ]of Pathfinders.[ST:wait ] |
| 4 |
|
tev000191_MSG0004 |
They've been deployed to an extremely dangerous[ST:n ]area—one where we've lost multiple teams already.[ST:wait ] |
| 5 |
|
tev000191_MSG0005 |
At long last, this team succeeded in reaching their[ST:n ]destination. But the data probe they needed to[ST:n ]complete their mission was destroyed in battle.[ST:wait ] |
| 6 |
|
tev000191_MSG0006 |
So the question is...how should we deliver the[ST:n ]replacement supplies they require?[ST:wait ] |
| 7 |
|
tev000191_MSG0007 |
We could send Harriers or Interceptors, but we can't[ST:n ]dismiss the possibility that they, too, could be wiped[ST:n ]out en route.[ST:wait ] |
| 8 |
|
tev000191_MSG0008 |
So perhaps the better choice is to order the Pathfinders[ST:n ]to retreat, then begin planning a return mission.[ST:wait ] |
| 9 |
|
tev000191_MSG0009 |
With the experience gained from this first trip—plus[ST:n ]an escort of Harriers and Interceptors—there's a good[ST:n ]chance they could reach the destination again.[ST:wait ] |
| 10 |
|
tev000191_MSG0010 |
So what would you choose? Attempt an immediate[ST:n ]delivery of replacement supplies, or abort the mission[ST:n ]and try again later?[ST:wait ] |
| 11 |
|
tev000191_JNK0010 |
Deliver Immediately |
| 12 |
|
tev000191_SEL0011 |
Say it's worth the risk to complete the mission. |
| 13 |
|
tev000191_JNK0020 |
Abort the Mission |
| 14 |
|
tev000191_SEL0021 |
Suggest Nagi order a retreat and plan a new mission. |
| 15 |
|
tev000191_JNK0030 |
Propose Plan C |
| 16 |
|
tev000191_SEL0031 |
Offer to deliver the supplies yourself. |
| 17 |
|
tev000191_MSG0011 |
So you're saying that squandering this opportunity[ST:n ]could prove to be the greater danger?[ST:wait ] |
| 18 |
|
tev000191_MSG0012 |
Hmm. We'd be risking many lives, but that may be the[ST:n ]sort of risk we have to take if we hope to accomplish[ST:n ]anything on this dangerous world...[ST:wait ] |
| 19 |
|
tev000191_MSG0013 |
And after all that you've accomplished as a BLADE,[ST:n ]I don't take your opinion lightly.[ST:wait ] |
| 20 |
|
tev000191_MSG0014 |
It's settled then—we'll send the Harriers. If your gambit[ST:n ]succeeds, the benefits to New LA will be considerable.[ST:wait ] |
| 21 |
|
tev000191_MSG0015 |
Now I must head back to BLADE HQ and work out the[ST:n ]particulars of the mission. Good day to you.[ST:wait ] |
| 22 |
|
tev000191_MSG0016 |
Indeed. Our bodies may be mimeosomes, but they're[ST:n ]still too precious an asset to risk without good reason.[ST:wait ] |
| 23 |
|
tev000191_MSG0017 |
It would be reckless to risk the lives of so many BLADE[ST:n ]operatives on this single mission.[ST:wait ] |
| 24 |
|
tev000191_MSG0018 |
As a wise man once said, \"For he that fights and[ST:n ]runs away, may turn and fight another day.\"[ST:n ]Let's just hope the second time is the charm.[ST:wait ] |
| 25 |
|
tev000191_MSG0019 |
I will order the Pathfinders to retreat immediately.[ST:wait ] |
| 26 |
|
tev000191_MSG0020 |
Thank you. After all that you've accomplished as a[ST:n ]BLADE, I don't take your opinion lightly.[ST:wait ] |
| 27 |
|
tev000191_MSG0021 |
Now I must head back to BLADE HQ and work out the[ST:n ]particulars of the new mission. Good day to you.[ST:wait ] |
| 28 |
|
tev000191_MSG0022 |
I like the way you think. If I had my druthers, I'd go[ST:n ]out there with you myself.[ST:wait ] |
| 29 |
|
tev000191_MSG0023 |
But I'm afraid this time, it's not an option.[ST:wait ] |
| 30 |
|
tev000191_MSG0024 |
Vandham has put his foot down. He actually insists[ST:n ]that neither one of us can go.[ST:wait ] |
| 31 |
|
tev000191_MSG0025 |
BLADE is a large organization, and Elma's team is[ST:n ]hardly the only skilled one at our disposal.[ST:wait ] |
| 32 |
|
tev000191_MSG0026 |
Apparently, Vandham thinks I need to utilize some[ST:n ]of these other teams in order to promote group[ST:n ]harmony and effectiveness.[ST:wait ] |
| 33 |
|
tev000191_MSG0027 |
This won't be the last time this kind of problem arises,[ST:n ]and we'll need a better plan in the future. But for now,[ST:n ]we need to choose one of these two strategies.[ST:wait ] |
