Welcome back. Your floppy friends here[ST:n ]filled me in on everything. You did good.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

|
xs05160100_MSG0002 |
Just watch yourself out there, Big Shot.[ST:n ]You're still new at this, and we can't afford to lose ya.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 3 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0003 |
We only got so many spare parts to go around.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 4 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0004 |
Feeling better, are we? You took a nasty hit, no?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

He'll be fine. I patched him up myself.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

xs05160100_MSG0005_f |
She'll be fine. I patched her up myself.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |

|
xs05160100_MSG0006 |
That's great, isn't it?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 9 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0007 |
We were worried sick, you know? We're still new in town,[ST:n ]so we don't have many other friends here yet...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 10 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0008 |
Wait... Then Ma-non will live here, too?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 11 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0009 |
Correct. The NLA government has reached an accord[ST:n ]with the Ma-non people. A friendship treaty.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 12 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0010 |
It guarantees their safety and provides them[ST:n ]a place to settle here in the city.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 13 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0011 |
That's great to hear, Director General.[ST:n ]I wasn't sure how you'd react.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 14 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0012 |
Mmm. \"We don't need to be from the same species[ST:n ]to be able to recognize our common ground.\"[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 15 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0013 |
Someone told me that once.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 16 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0014 |
Heh—that was a lifetime ago.[ST:n ]That's quite a memory you have.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 17 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0015 |
A blessing and a curse, believe me.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 18 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0016 |
So you're all stuck here too, right?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 19 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0017 |
We were just cruising along out in space, you know?[ST:page p1=60 ]And suddenly our nav system goes all screwy[ST:n ]and we find ourselves here.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 20 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0018 |
Which is pretty weird, considering our tech[ST:n ]is far more advanced than anything Samaar's got...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 21 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0019 |
You saw how bad they wanted it, yeah?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 22 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0020 |
Samaar? ...I thought it was the Ganglion that attacked you?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 23 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0021 |
You don't know about Samaar? Seriously?[ST:n ]As in the interstellar federation, Samaar?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 24 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0022 |
I mean, they only rule over a radius of[ST:n ]6 million light years or so of space.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 25 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0023 |
Six MILLION?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 26 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0023_2 |
But...that would span multiple galaxies...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 27 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0024 |
Well, yeah.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 28 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0025 |
The Ganglion are a run-of-the-mill crime syndicate.[ST:n ]Just one tiny part of Samaar, you know?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 29 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0026 |
Hmm... Just one tiny part...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 30 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0027 |
My good Ma-non—in the spirit of our agreement,[ST:n ]we'd appreciate any intelligence you'd be willing to share.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 31 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0028 |
Of course, of course! We'll tell you all we know, okay?[ST:n ]After all, we are friends now, right?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 32 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0029 |
We are, right? Friends?[ST:n ]Earth human heroes will protect us, right?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 33 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0030 |
Because we live here now......right?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 34 |
|
xs05160100_MSG0031 |
Oh look, look! Here comes our little ship now.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
