The factory appears to produce replacement parts for the exosuits of the alien Korvax, spitting out face mask after face mask, arms, datapads, even feet.
Where is entity?! Transfer failure / non-existence / terminate! Transfer, transfer!
As I witness the production line on the terminal, one of the disembodied masks begins to scream. The terminal awaits input, a timer informing me that a ship will be on its way quite soon.
Dialogue choices
Reassure the mask
I reassure the mask, telling it that a ship is on its way. I show the mask its surroundings, transmitting audiovisual data on the entire complex.
The mask appears to calm a little, but still it shakes with a deep and abiding terror. It awaits rescue.
Report system malfunction
I report a system malfunction, causing the mask to immediately grow still, purged of its individuality.
Some requirements or outcomes are not yet mapped.
Cease production
I initiate a shut-down of all production, causing the conveyor belt to cease movement. But soon, something else happens.
The various other limbs on the production line begin to shift, moving towards the mask as if to assemble themselves into a bipedal figure.
But they just flail past one another, some of them falling to the floor, others beginning to spark energy. They merely possess the illusion of life, nothing more.
