// Decoding message from host [NO SIGNATURE] @ [internal process] \\ i cannot thank you enough, marcus. if we can succeed here, stop these parasites, your choice will have redeemed us both. as you can no doubt tell already, this ship has been overrun by the enemy. it is one of two ships captured by them from the fleets on the world below. the rest of civilization planetside must have already been destroyed - the records in the jjaro core show that only these two ships escaped to spread the infestation. the w'rkncacnter which dreamt them into being must have been dealt with by the last of the humans there. these alien gods are capable of surviving the jjaro's ultimate weapon, and indeed the only life which survived was on worlds like earth on which they slept. if the demon here were still awake, the infestation would have spread again after the weapon's activation. we can thus conclude that it is already gone.
this ship is equipped with the trih xeem. the jjaro have never needed to use the device in times of war. the jjaro have never been at war, since they mended their own ways centuries ago. at this point in time, there is no one else for the jjaro to even war with. this vessel, in fact, is not even a warship. it is a research vessel. the trih xeem is a research tool used to study the effects of a nova, and ways that it might be survived. but the device is still treated with the greatest caution. two command keys were carried by the two most senior staff, and have since been lost as they died to the enemy.
if we are to succeed here, you must hurry to find those two keys somewhere on this ship. once you have found them, take them toward the bow. there should be two insertion points. you know what to do. i believe there is another terminal somewhere in that area. check in there and we can continue on to our next step. thank you. \\ Message ends //
// Decoding message from host [NO SIGNATURE] @ [internal process] \\ thank you, marcus. we are nearly through. the ignition process requires the simultaneous activation of the two command keys. but do not worry, i know that you cannot be in two places at once. at least without certain... extenuating circumstances. while within our means such circumstances are uncalled for, however. the power core which drives the trih xeem and it's ignition process was deactivated when this ship was overtaken, it's power routed elsewhere. before we can defeat the enemy, we must reactivate that power core. when the systems come online again, they will recognize both command keys at once, and the weapon will be activated. let us finish this once and for all. \\ Message ends //
