[Neraphym]

Neraphym: "This is us."

Varulla places her hand on the pad.

[Darkness]

The door slides open easily.

[Neraphym]

They enter into the room...

[Darkness]

Corpses litter the ground here, seemingly both Karloron and Aphorite. The strange fleshy thing does not seem to be here, however, but there is quite a bit of destruction as it is. You appear to be on a weapons deck, with a wide, reinforced and shielded window across the large room. Chairs with mechanical consoles and neural attachments are spaced periodically across, which no doubt correspond to mechanically operated weapons on top or the sides of the ship, or perhaps unmanned remote controlled fighters.

[Neraphym]

Neraphym searches for any useful equipment he can find. Spare weapons, armor, munitions, etc.

[Darkness]

You... don't find anything.

[Neraphym]

Neraphym: "Darn, nothing to be had here. Let's go back."

They return to the crystal room and put a bunch of crystals into the Weapons Platform V24 panel, then head back to check out that room. When they get there, Varulla attempts to open the door by placing her hand on a nearby pad.

[Darkness]

The door does not open. It seems that there must be some trouble with the transportation of the power between here and the power room.

[Neraphym]

Neraphym: "Luck is apparently not on our side today."

They return to the power room and rearrange the crystals into the Armory Section W6 panel. They make off for that room.

[Darkness]

On the way there, you are blocked from progressing. The hall is completely blocked by debris.

[Neraphym]

Neraphym: "Foiled again..."

Varulla: "Is there any reason to remain on the ship? We can't loot anything from the obvious locations, and I don't see much value in finding out what happened here... but I am curious."

Neraphym: "Me, too... let's get to the bridge. Perhaps there might be some valuable intelligence here."

They return to the crystal room and set the crystals into the turbolift. The go to the lift.

[Darkness]

... The turbolift still doesn't work. You silly billy.

[Neraphym]

Neraphym: "Let's try the other lift..."

Same deal, this time for the Central Control Room Lift.

[Darkness]

You arrive at the lift.

[Neraphym]

...They enter the lift (using the handpad method) and check to see where it might take them.
