| | |
| ''Post-[[Mission: Mesmerize|Mesmerize]]''
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': The [[Echo (object)|key]] to [[Maya Sundaresh|the Conductor]]'s hold over Saint must be somewhere on Nessus. The Vanguard cannot allow our fighters to be compromised. And… I can't let Saint go through this without help.
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Captain, I won't scold you for any increased violence today. I think we could all use the stress relief.
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Osiris''': Failsafe, have you pinpointed our first target?
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Working on it…
| |
| | |
| *'''Osiris''': Perhaps we can find a countermeasure to the Conductor's ability to command, or something to break her hold on Saint.
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': I'll see what I can turn up, buuut it might be best if you just talk to him?
| |
| | |
| *'''Osiris''': He hears my words but his heart doesn't keep them… Though we don't give up on each other. I'll keep trying until he does.
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Saint-14''': Failsafe… please, lead the mission. You are Captain now.
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': I am honored, but am technically unable to accept a permanent promotion to a position of authority. It's okay, buddy. How about we let the Captain take the lead?
| |
| | |
| *'''Saint-14''': Yes. I will… watch the data.
| |
| | |
| ''Post-[[Mission: Shell|Shell]]''
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': The Conductor believes she is working toward a common good: a new [[Golden Age]] — she's fooling herself. She wants nothing other than control, and we will not give it to her.
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Ideally before she takes over all of our brains too.
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Scanning… but it's getting hard to lock down [[Nessian Schism|which Vex are the Conductor's]] and which [[Sol Collective|aren't]]. I guess that's the whole point.
| |
| | |
| *'''Osiris''': She's more Vex than [[Human]] now, and most of Nessus has fallen to her assimilation. A civil war at the microbial level... They believe they can mold reality as they wish, no matter to cost. That plan starts and ends here. With you. See that she fails.
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Saint-unit. I am detecting heightened Vex processing activity. Forwarding coordinates to Vanguard tactical.
| |
| | |
| *'''Saint-14''': Guardians, the data here carries the Conductor's plans, yes, but also her lies meant to convert all Vex, all life, to her cause. Learn what we can, and break the rest!
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Maya Sundaresh''': Why do you continue to fight against what would benefit you?
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': It is the Conductor! Did you know your method of accessing my comms is very unpleasant, the Conductor? Please go away!
| |
| | |
| *'''Maya Sundaresh''': You're very brave for a ship with no flight capacity.
| |
| | |
| ''Post-[[Encore|Encore: Coda]]''
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Osiris, why would the Conductor continue this work if she's not on Nessus?
| |
| | |
| *'''Osiris''': She has gained access to the greater Vex network, but that doesn't mean she controls it. Well, yet. Maya must still require Nessus as a testing ground before foisting her experiments upon the rest of the collective.
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora''': The Conductor may be physically absent, but she retains a connection to the Vex through their Network. She is not the type of person to be dissuaded from her work. Or her revenge.
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': At least we still get to hang out! While the Captain gets shot at.
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Saint-14''': Vex hostility is increasing in Maya's absence. We cannot leave Nessus to become her stronghold. Be careful, fireteam. Whatever data remains is closely guarded, and Maya could return at any time.
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': That would suggest that it is also important. Good. Let's hit them where it hurts.
| |
| | |
| ===Before 2nd encounter===
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Well done, fireteam. The more we learn of Nessus' changes, the better prepared we will be to face its dangers.
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Speaking of danger: tracking incoming hostiles. Sending you the details, Captain.
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Osiris''': We've pulled everything we can from this site. Failsafe, sweep the area and find our next target.
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Data-streams are consolidated at a new location. Standby.
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': You have done well, Captain! Good job. I am proud of you! That is not sarcasm!
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': Uh, sending new coordinates… I agree with Failsafe's assessment, but the Vex will not.
| |
| | |
| ''Post-Shell''
| |
| | |
| *'''Maya Sundaresh''': Are you so attached to your scraps of power in a broken world? A second Golden Age would benefit us all. And yet you resist beyond all sense.
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': That is one of my favorite things about the Captain! Sending new coordinates.
| |
| | |
| ===Before 3rd encounter===
| |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': That's as much data as we have capacity for. Time to leave, Guardian.
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': I hate to see you go, but I'd also hate to watch the Vex trap you in a time-box forever.
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Temporal disturbance detected. And the Vex are jamming my [[transmat]] lock. Rude…
| |
| | |
| *'''Osiris''': It appears there's a limit on how much data we can extract before a heightened security force takes notice. Break their hold.
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Captain, your team's data-stores are full and ready for extraction.
| |
| | |
| *'''Saint-14''': We are ready to receive you. Make your way home.
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Whoa. I'm detecting a reversal in the Vex's signal polarities. Any idea what that's about?
| |
| | |
| *'''Osiris''': They're retracting their access points and flooding the field with reinforcements. We are done here.
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Prepping for extraction run!
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Captain, subterranean radiolaria flows are converging on this position and disrupting extraction procedures.
| |
| | |
| *'''Saint-14''': Nessus itself brings the Vex to us. Secure their command plates and Failsafe will extract your fireteam.
| |
| | |
| ''Or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': You've awakened Nessus' last defenses. The Vex will do anything to neutralize the threat.
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Like jamming my extraction link. Neutralize them, Captain! We'll get you out of there as soon as we can.
| |
| | |
| ''Post-Shell''
| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': Looks like the Conductor doesn't want you getting out with a full load of data. Hang tight, Captain.
| |
| | |
| *'''Maya Sundaresh''': You were a fool if you thought otherwise.

| | |

| |
| | |
| *'''Failsafe''': The Conductor is brewing up some new kinds of radiolaria in those structures. Collect as much as you can.
| |
| | |
| *'''Maya Sundaresh''': I work to proliferate life for the sake of humanity. Are Humans happy now? Are they secure and thriving, huddled behind [[The Last City|their walls]]?
| |
| | |

| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Er, there are days where I really miss having access to my railgun.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Data acquired! Please accept this in exchange.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Please accept this gift. And mulch some Vex with it.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Recording gear primed to see what you make of that, Captain!
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': I bet the Vex are boiling in their tanks processing that data loss.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Never say I do nothing for you, Captain. I am a born helper.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Show me what that one does!
| |
|
| |
| ===Guardian defeated===
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Did anyone see who knocked the Captain's data out? Cuz you should return the favor.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Large data spill detected!
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': No names, but someone lost a big haul, and exploded — like when I crashed here!
| |
|
| |
| ===Fireteam down===
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Fireteam down! Oh, no... it's happening again!
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Fireteam down! Hey, it happens. Take a breather. That's what I've been doing.
| |
|
| |
| ===Time Over===
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Your execution of this task was adequate!
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': You've achieved minimum expectations!
| |
|
| |
| ===Completion===
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Guardian secured.
| |
| <br>
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': You ever get out of the [[Tower (Destiny 2)|Tower]], Ikora? It sounds like the Vanguard are stuck up there good.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': It's my duty. I miss the freedom of my younger days, but I can help the most from… up here.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Wow. And nobody even crash-landed you across miles of planetoid to make you do it.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Osiris''': For a moment, it felt as if Nessus meant to swallow your fireteam whole. The very ground radiates Vex influence. Code written into the stone as prophecy. And the mountains kneel.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Get me off this ride. Am I right? When the Vex took Nessus it was like a well-organized renovation disaster. But now, they're just duking it out in the streets. What gives?
| |
|
| |
| *'''Osiris''': Such is the question. I've rarely seen Vex factions in conflict. But this… this is chaos. Perhaps the data will make some sense of it.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': Well done, Guardian. Failsafe, I'll look forward to your analysis.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': I'll try… but the Vex never made sense, and now they're acting weirder than ever. I don't know if it's possible to understand them.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': Don't say that to Osiris. You might wound his scholarly pride.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': What if I want to wound his pride?
| |
|
| |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': Then I only ask that you record his reaction.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Fireteam, your data is secure.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Huh, that's weird.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': It is not weird. The Guardian does not fail.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': No, I mean normally Vex procedures trickle down from the top minds, you know? But these are all talking to each other instead.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': I see… Hmm, that is strange. We cannot rely on bringing them down by cutting off the head then. Ah, no matter. We have enough fists for them all.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Failsafe, does this data mention the star that fell from the [[Traveler]]?
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Initial scans determined it was not a star. A star would have violently annihilated Nessus, among other things.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': You know what I meant.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': I did, Saint-unit. I was employing, you know… humor? Short answer: no. But I am seeing multi-threaded code arranged as clefs.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Clef, you say? The Vex use such strange names. We will find this "Clef" and crush the answer out of it.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Saint-unit. A clef is not a punchable Vex, but a method of musical arrangement. I will send you a diagr—
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Haha! You believed I was confused, but I was not! Now it is I who have caught you with a joke! I win.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Congratulations, fireteam! Your data is secure.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Osiris''': This, this code, is presenting differently than previous Vex structures I've analyzed. Huh, curious…
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Oh, yeah. That's all messed up. Is it… a virus? Should I purge it? Let me purge it! I wanna purge some Vex!
| |
|
| |
| *'''Osiris''': Calm down. It almost seems so, but no, I believe this is a form of adaptation. But what spurred it?
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Maybe the data we just got will tell us!
| |
|
| |
| ''Post-Mesmerize''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Data acquired, Captain. Processing packets for Vanguard transfer.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Yes… data. It will show us what is true and what is not.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Saint-unit, may I offer an observation?
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': If you must.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Your friends present data, affirming your place. The Conductor presents data to the contrary. I suggest the only data that matters, is yours. If I internalized everything people said about me, it would get pretty dark in here. The only one who knows about you, is you.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Data extraction complete. And everyone lived!
| |
|
| |
| *'''Osiris''': Yes, though death by Vex may not be the only thing we have to fear on Nessus. Failsafe, narrow your decryption endeavors. Find any segments of code referencing their attack on Saint. If the Conductor can compel him, any of us could be vulnerable. We must be cautious with our patrol deployments. I shudder to think what she would do with you, Guardian.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': That is a terrifying though. I'll store it with the others.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Ikora, you have the greatest amount of relevant data. Are Osiris and the Saint-unit ever gonna communicate effectively?
| |
|
| |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': They're used to navigating hard times. We Guardians live long enough to weather any number of storms.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': But now they're making it my problem.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': Yes… They are used to that, as well.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Osiris thinks I am someone that I am not. His expectations of me… [sighs]
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': My counseling profile stresses that "communication is key". Normally, it is the silence that is the worst. Normally. Talk to Osiris.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': What he went through to find me — to save me. I fear my questions would leave only wounds.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Saint-unit, our best-friendship is new, but Osiris seems like the kind of guy who likes talking about problems, especially hard ones.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': You are right, but I am anxious… I never feel this way before a fight, so maybe it will not be one. Thank you, Failsafe.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': Data on its way to analysis. There is much to learn, and little time to learn it. You saved Saint-14 once before, Guardian. I regret that we're making this request of you again. But maybe that means you're the best equipped to get it done.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Data secure. Recalling fireteam. Osiris, I can tell you need to talk. As a colony-ship A.I., I am outfitted with several counseling profiles. Would you like to use my expertise?
| |
|
| |
| *'''Osiris''': Why not? I am at a loss... How do you convince someone they are who they've always felt themselves to be? H-how do I show him… all my memories are only of him, not some other us?
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Uhhh… maybe just say that?
| |
|
| |
| *'''Osiris''': [chuckles] If he would only listen, perhaps it would be that easy. Say, those you advised, what became of them?
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': They're all happily buried together. Some not far from here!
| |
|
| |
| ''Post-Shell''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Osiris''': Extraction successful. Welcome back. Failsafe? Are you bothering that frog again? Failsafe? [sighs] No matter. Good work, Guardian. I will make sure your data is processed with the utmost attention and scrutiny. I'll do it myself…
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Maya Sundaresh''': Go analyze your scraps of data, and you will understand that I am doing this for humanity's sake. For what we've lost.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': I lived through one Golden Age already. It didn't end great.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Maya Sundaresh''': The generation of the Golden Age accepted failure. I do not.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Maya Sundaresh''': I gifted my Vex the ability to choose — to learn new ways. In time, they might learn to become anything. When you respond to them with nothing violence, what choices are you driving them towards?
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| '''Ikora Rey''': There must be something we can learn of the Conductor in this data. I've reviewed all my reading on Maya Sundaresh, all my memories of [[Lakshmi-2]], and I still cannot reconcile them with the Conductor. Was it the influence of the Vex? Of the Echo itself? As of yet, we have no way to know.
| |
|
| |
| '''Failsafe''': Sometimes people don't need a reason to make bad choices. They just need an excuse. But then again, I am a cynic.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Do we know anything about the Conductor? Forewarned is forearmed or whatever.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Ikora Rey''': Osiris has been collating information on Maya Sundaresh from [[Neomuna]]'s archives. [[Nimbus]] left some notes with their Neomuni perspective. The first one says, "Seriously bad vibes." I'll forward you Osiris' draft.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Data extraction completed and here we stand, free from the clutches of the Vex.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Saint-unit, I am glad that your confidence has returned. If the Conductor tries that again, just do what I do. Mute your audio-feed and fill in the blanks yourself.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Haha! Well said, Failsafe. You give good advice, friend.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': [gasps] Friend...
| |
|
| |
| ''Post-Encore: Coda''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Osiris''': Data secure. With any luck we can use it to track the Conductor's influence through the Vex network.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': What do you think she's doing in there?
| |
|
| |
| *'''Osiris''': Spreading her doctrine, assimilating other Vex enclaves... Perhaps, still fueled by the delusion that she can find an acceptable Chioma. It is a shame that her mind has been fractured so... Maya could have been an invaluable ally.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Ikora''': If we're fortunate, this will give us a lead to the Conductor's current plans. As Lakshmi, she didn't have the instinct to compromise, but she was tempered by the people around her. The Conductor came into being among the Vex she controls. She has no community of peers. Only pawns. Whatever restraint and empathy Lakshmi had, we will not find in the Conductor.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Extraction complete. Guardians, you are safe, and your data is secure. Now that everyone is out of danger... Failsafe—
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Saint-unit, do you want to come play with my new [[batadactyl]]s?!
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': [laughs] Yes, and pet your frog. Very much. I will bring my chicken, the [[Colonel]].
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': A CHICKEN? [[Captain Jacobson]], [[Babata]], and [[Petris]] will be honored to receive such a highly-decorated officer. I will put out snacks.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Ikora''': Data secured. Thank you for all your help, Failsafe. Your analysis was, and remains, invaluable.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': No problem! That part is way easier than talking to Osiris and the Saint-unit about their feelings!
| |
|
| |
| *'''Ikora''': I thank you for your patience with them, as well.
| |
|
| |
| ''Or''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Data secured. Hmm, I wonder if the Vanguard should assign devoted patrols to Nessus. It is too dangerous to leave unwatched.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': You mean it!? Defending Nessus with a Guardian partner would be very exciting!
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14''': Haha, I do... Just because the Conductor is not here physically does not mean the threat is gone. Hmm, maybe I will visit myself.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Failsafe''': Saint-unit. I would be honored to be your patrol sidekick. But we might need to restock my armory.
