'''{Mission begins}'''
*'''Vesper Central''': Last broadcast repeats. Threat level omega. Object on collision vector. Total station loss expected.
::[[The Guardian]] proceeds into [[Vesper Station]].
*'''Vesper Central''': Threat level gamma. Doors open in restricted sectors. Get out. Get out!
''Or''
*'''Vesper Central''': Threat level epsilon. Vesper Station to [[Europa]] surface: we need assistance. Lives are in danger. Broadcast repeats.
::[[Fallen]] breach the area and attack the Guardian.
*'''Vesper Central''': Threat level lambda. Life support is failing. Put on your breath masks or asphyxiate.
*'''Vesper Central''': Threat alert canceled. All hands, take off your helmets. Breathe in.
::The Guardian passes through a security checkpoint.
*'''Vesper Central''': [[Clovis Bray (corporation)|BrayTech]] scan failed. Your gear is out of order.
''Or if the Guardian is wielding [[Outbreak Perfected]]''
*'''Vesper Central''': You're contaminated with banned technology. Security will be alerted. Be more careful, all right?
''Or if the Guardian is wielding [[Final Warning]]''
*'''Vesper Central''': [[Ishtar Collective|Ishtar]] probe detected. Message from Dr. Bray reads: Corporate espionage, [[Maya Sundaresh|Maya]]? I expected better from you.
''Or if the Guardian only has Pulse Rifles and Sniper Rifles equipped''
*'''Vesper Central''': BrayTech scan is clean. Have a safe and productive day!
::The Guardian proceeds further into the station. They begin to reinitialize the Station, and deposit a nuclear core.
*'''Vesper Central''': Central power critically low.
::The Guardian deposits a second core.
*'''Vesper Central''': Power at sixty percent.
::The Guardian deposits a third core.
*'''Vesper Central''': Re-engaging standby mode. Welcome to Vesper Station!
::The Guardian traversed further and disables a barrier blocking their path. [[Raneiks Unified]] appears and begins attacking the Guardian.
*'''Vesper Central''': Corrupted bio-mechanical subject has jumped to a new host. Did you breach containment?
::The Guardian flees from the [[Servitor]], until after depositing more nuclear cores, they face it in a battle.
*'''Vesper Central''': He built me physically unable to use the tools to keep people safe. You will do it for me.
::The Guardian defeats Raneiks Unified.
*'''Vesper Central''': Threat neutralized. All researchers report for contamination protocols! No. No life signs detected. They're all gone.
::The Guardian travels further through the Station, seeking a way to shut down the [[Anomaly (Vesper)|Anomaly]].
*'''Vesper Central''': Power draw on that anomaly is far beyond safe limits. [[Arc]] energy shouldn’t be that color.
::The Guardian discovers [[the Corrupted Puppeteer]].
*'''Vesper Central''': Stay back! That Exo frame is the center of the corruption!
::The Guardian begins to fight the Puppeteer. Eventually it withdraws.
*'''Vesper Central''': That thing is in the lower stacks!
::The Guardian deposits a nuclear core.
*'''Vesper Central''': It's returning to the anomaly!
::The Puppeteer communes with the Anomaly.
*'''Vesper Central''': Threat level omega.
::The Guardian defeats the Puppeteer.
*'''Vesper Central''': Corrupted signal fading. Anomaly shutdown complete. The corruption took control of everything. It forced the construction of the Anomaly. It could have ruined so much more than it already did. And these facilities are wrecked. Population count is… nil. I'm… alone.

===First Message===
*'''Vesper Central''': Charge rerouted through Caster complex. First-level archives coming online.
*'''Vesper Central''': I suppose I have you to thank for bringing me out of standby, visitor.
*'''[[The Spider]]''': I sent the Guardian out to save your station. So, what denomination does your thanks come in? [[Glimmer]], [[herealways]], information…?
*'''Vesper Central''': Anomaly’s powered down. That means I've already given you your survival. But… the message that went through wiped itself before my cache process could save a copy. And it's not the initial ping through the Anomaly I'm worried about. It's the response.
===Second Message===
*'''Vesper Central''': Exterior scans rebooting… Is that a chunk of the [[Morning Star]] in my station's hull? With luck you were on board at the time, [[Clovis Bray I|Dr. Bray]].
*'''Vesper Central''': I'm guessing I've been on standby for a long time. Is Dr. Clovis Bray alive?
*'''The Spider''': On my oath, I vow there’s no mortal [[Human]] named Bray left alive.
*'''Vesper Central''': I swore I'd outlive him. That I'd break the chains he laid on me.
*'''The Spider''': Please, trust me for anything you need. The Guardian's a useful hand on the scene, but the Spider's got the goods.
*'''Vesper Central:''' Vesper Station was Dr. Bray's lab, meant to house the experiments that might… interact poorly with other BrayTech work. Isolated and quarantined. From the debris field, I would guess the Morning Star taking a dive cracked that quarantine wide open.
===Third Message===
*'''Vesper Central''': Sector seventeen powered down. Rerouting energy to core processing. Integrating archives.
*'''The Spider''': Loading images of the station. That's  not [[Fallen|Eliksni]] engineering. [scoffs] A [[Dreg]] past their first molt has better cable management.
*'''Vesper Central''': Dr. Bray intended to integrate his technology into a [[Vex]] [[Vex Mind|mind]]. He hypothesized the fusion would give him an interface he understood. A control panel on a programmable Vex mind. If the programming jumped species once… I need time to run through the datasets you powered back up. Reassembling corrupted archives takes a great deal of processing.
===Fourth Message===
*'''Vesper Central''': Helios sector long-term research archives powered up. Activating search.
*'''Vesper Central''': Dr. Bray's command keys have to be in here somewhere. Expanding search parameters…
*'''The Spider''': My agents are turning up some interesting morsels of data on their own. Why not give them access to your search function and collaborate?
*'''Vesper Central''': Nobody is getting into my core programming.
*'''The Spider''': Oh! Perish the thought! An innocent offer, my dear. Technology is a matter of faith to my people. And I’m the faithful sort.
===Fifth Message===
*'''Vesper Central''': Power enough to crack one more of Dr. Bray's keys.
*'''Vesper Central''': Dr. Bray, I could kill you myself. This is why our work focused on the unbodied Mind. Dr. Bray thought there were types of Vex unseen on Europa. Powerful Vex he could learn from. The plan was that the Mind would build him a controlled window for observation. Tidy. Tight. Safe. He thought he could control a Vex mind so perfectly it would do everything he wanted.
*'''The Spider''': Like an AI of his own creation. Like you.
*'''Vesper Central''': Turns out you can't control everything forever.
===Sixth Message===
*'''Vesper Central''': One layer closer to the core.
*'''Vesper Central''': There's a block keeping me from the inner partitions. I barely have authority to see the partitions exist. In standby, I couldn't have done more than run automated threat assessments… with flawed data. No way to know how many injuries and deaths I could have prevented, with core access. Enough. A dead man won't keep me from protecting what's mine.
===Seventh Message===
*'''Vesper Central''': Rerouting power to Vesper Central processors. I need brute force for this.
*'''Vesper Central''': The reply coming back through the Anomaly let me scrape a facsimile of the original message. It was a locating ping. The content was irrelevant. The signal was the message: “Hello, world.” And… something overrode my lock on the Anomaly. Allowed it to power up enough to receive the reply.
*'''The Spider''': Who could possibly override your word, when all Vesper Station is at your beck and call?
*'''Vesper Central''': I need Dr. Bray’s personal command algorithm. With station route access, I can keep the Anomaly from ever powering back up.
===Eighth Message===
*'''Vesper Station''': Vesper Station administrative core reactivated.
*'''Vesper Station''': I’ve got the archive of Dr. Bray’s published staff memos. Petabytes of data in the raw files. [[Rasputin]]. The Stoneworm protocols. The Aion Initiative. [[Soteria]]. I had siblings this whole time. And you never let me know.
*'''The Spider''': Do tell if you’d like a hand with that data, my dear! My agents may be amateur [[Splicer]]s at best, but they get the job done.
===Ninth Message===
*'''Vesper Central''': Sector thirteen shut down. Rerouting charge to processors. I’ll smash the locks if I have to.
*'''Vesper Central''': I’m into the sub-director level. Dr. Bray’s contingency plans for quarantine breach. He meant to let Vesper’s station's orbit decay till it crashed and buried itself in Europa's ice. I'm not letting you do that to me or this station, Dr. Bray. You’ve ruined enough.
==Secret Chests==
===First Chest===
*'''Vesper Central''': Too much left behind. I'm drowning in monuments to the dead.
===Second Chest===
*'''Vesper Central''': Take what you want. Nobody else is left to use it.

===Vesper Station Activation===
Now that the central mechanics of the dungeon are made clear, players will see an area that has 3 passageways. One passageway has a red heart symbol above the door, another one has a blue lung symbol, and the third one has a yellow brain symbol. After being familiar with the layout, approach a white sphere and interact with it to begin the first encounter. When the encounter starts, a Brig will spawn in front of the sphere you just interacted with. Player must kill the Brig and the Vandal who possess the '''Viral Scanner''' pickup you will need. After killing the Brig, players will now see one of the passageways have an alarm going off. Go into that passageway and traverse it until you see a barrier up ahead. Now, players must kill a Marauder called the Machine Priest's Assistant to lower the barrier and begin the next part of the encounter. Remember to deposit the Viral Augment pickups into the Augment Terminals before the timer expires, then you can reacquire the Viral Augment pickups there until you have unlocked the nuclear core. After acquiring both Viral Augment pickups discussed earlier and identifying which pads needs to be shot, players will see a nuclear core that will inflict the '''Radiation''' debuff to the carrier and kill them if they acquire 10 stacks of '''Radiation''', so be sure to rotate carriers often. After returning to where they started the encounter, a Brig will spawn that will prevent you from depositing a nuclear core into a chest. Kill the Brig and deposit the nuclear core. Repeat this whole process 2 more times and the encounter will be completed.

===The Corrupted Puppeteer===
===The Corrupted Puppeteer===
Approach the orb near the window to begin the final encounter. All 3 Viral Augment pickup will be at play here, so dedicate a player to each specific Viral Augment role. When the encounter starts, multiple clones of the Puppeteer will rush onto the players and inflict them with the '''Radiation''' debuff if the player stays within the clone's aura. To counter this, the player with '''Viral Suppression''' must plant down a hologram to bait the clones, then shoot the hologram to remove their Radiation aura, opening them to damage. Once those clones are defeated, the player with '''Viral Scanner''' must go around the room and identify all instances of the specific numbered pad to tell the player who possesses '''Viral Operator''' to shoot. After that, head towards the open tubes and find which door has an alarm going off. Head towards that room until you see a room with exactly 4 pads and an Augment Terminal. The player with '''Viral Operator''' must shoot all 4 pads while the player with '''Viral Scanner''' identifies which clone needs to be destroyed to drop and subsequently deposit a nuclear core into a chest inside a bunker. You will need to do this process again on the other side, but watch out for traps along the way. When both rooms are completed, a teleporter will activate leading them back into the room where the encounter starts, but this time, head into a giant door in the back. After being launched up on the deck, DPS will begin. Players will have 2 rounds of DPS while they are on the deck and energy from the Anomaly will strike into the area as well. After the first round of DPS is over, head into a bunker nearby and deposit the nuclear core to be safe from the overwhelming energy emanating from the Anomaly. After the second round of DPS is over, fall into the hole where you were launched from earlier and repeat the above mechanics until the boss is dead, completing the dungeon.
