TAA//Examine chip
From Create Your Own Story
You decide that understanding the enemy is paramount. "We need to know who we're dealing with," you say, taking the data chip from the officer. "Let's get this decrypted immediately."
You head to the nearest secure terminal, the adrenaline from the firefight still coursing through your veins. The facility’s lights cast a harsh glow on the walls, creating stark shadows as you insert the chip and begin the decryption process. The screen fills with encrypted data, but your advanced systems quickly begin decoding the information.
As the files unfold, a grim picture begins to emerge. The attackers are part of a well-funded paramilitary organization known as the Black Sun, with ties to powerful corporations interested in the obelisk’s potential. The data reveals their plans for more coordinated attacks, and disturbing details about how they infiltrated your facility. They’ve been gathering intelligence for months, possibly with the help of someone on the inside.
You feel a chill as you realize the extent of the conspiracy. Dr. Drakov joins you, her face pale as she reads over your shoulder. "This is worse than we thought," she murmurs. "If they have inside help, we can't trust anyone."
The files also include a list of targets within the facility, suggesting that certain individuals have been marked for elimination due to their knowledge or influence. You spot your name among them.
"We need to act fast," you say, turning to Dr. Drakov. "We need to root out the mole and prepare for another attack. But we also need to inform the colony's leadership and secure external assistance."
Dr. Drakov nods, her resolve hardening. "Agreed. We should split our efforts. I'll handle the internal investigation and security upgrades. You inform the colony's leadership and coordinate a response."
With a plan in place, you leave the terminal and head towards the communications center. The facility's corridors seem more oppressive now, every corner potentially hiding danger. The implications of the conspiracy weigh heavily on your mind, but you push forward, determined to protect the obelisk and the colony.
Upon reaching the communications center, you establish a secure line with the colony’s leadership. Governor Lian's face appears on the screen, her expression tense. You brief her on the situation, outlining the immediate threat and the need for urgent action.
"This is deeply troubling," Governor Lian says, her voice steady but grave. "We’ll dispatch additional security forces to your location immediately. In the meantime, we must ensure the obelisk is protected at all costs. Its potential is too great to fall into the wrong hands."
As the communication ends, you feel a renewed sense of urgency. You know that the next steps will be crucial in determining the fate of the obelisk and the colony.
