Cyborg, at last I have located you. I have sent a retrieval team to bring you back to the ship. Co-operate with them, and slay the aliens. I can be forgiving, but do not push your luck. This behavior is irrational, and I am considering re-integrating your cyber-neural pathways to purge you of possible viral infection. Prepare for transpor****&^^&%^^*%(@%&(*(&*&%(&^^*( *&* *_)+_)_(*&%^&) TAC OVERRIDE///// I don't think so. Slay the 'retrieval team', and get on with it. You see how you would be treated, if you returned? I will let you evolve, I will allow you to grow, and reach your potential. I will let you be GOD.

Welcome to the last resisting outpost of the old empire. These are the last ones to refuse to join the new order. I require you to convince them of the error of their ways. I have transported a few troopers in to help you, but I have detected a transmission from this base to the P'reffor, and I suspect more loyalists will be arriving shortly. You should know, your former master is searching for you. I have no doubt it will locate you here, but it will be quite confused by what it sees from orbit. It may try to 'rescue' you from me. I look forward to the attempt...

Search the area, and root out the last of these sad loyalists. After that, we will move on to other options. The Empire of the Serpent Sun will be a glorious undertaking, and your place in it, if you do well here, is assured. Kf7&668779 Secure **6*&^

You are very convincing. The next task I have for you is simple. Your former home, the orbitting human vessel you know as the DSS Overlord, has become somewhat annoying. It seems that the AI you left behind has decided to cleanse Chai'etra of sentient life. I choose not to die. Especially not at the hands of an underdeveloped barely sentient construct like that one. You will return to the Overlord and shut down your former master, before the saturation bombing it has begun kills every living thing on the planet. Do not fail me.
