______________________________________________________________________ The Mystic Pfhor are unknown to us. We thought that their diminishing race was what we saw in a small ship back on an unknown planet. We were wrong. They have been stockpiling themselves on the planet below. A thriving metropolis is waiting for you... but, there are things that you must do first. You are currently on the Kr'Khar Station, which is used to keep the planet's magnetic field at a constant. The planet's original field fluctuated so greatly, that the Mystics could not draw power from their core efficiently. This orbital station fixes that. So I, Felix the genius, plan a little surprise. The Mystics rely heavily on their system of time. Their time system relies heavily on the nearby sun, and the enormous moon that orbits the planet. Certain un-mineable metals within the moons structure are what is used to cause the fluctuations in the magnetic field. I am going to use you to actually alter the moon's orbit around the planet. That should throw the piss-ants below into a thralling frenzy ______________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________ I am glad you knew what to do with that uplink chip we sent you. We were not able to crack into this station's systems, so we sent the chip to allow us access. But unfortunately it didn't allow us COMPLETE access, otherwise this would have been easy. With this chip you inserted, I will be able to feed you information for your personal mapping unit to help you with this difficult task. You might have already noticed some Simulcrums, don't worry, they are re-programmed and on your side. As well as some Cyborg Drones. System is on-line and protected with a fault-activated security (currently at security level 3). No alterations in system configuration can be made unless a system fault is detected. Therefore direct access to the critical system operations is impossible (doors to these areas cannot be unlocked). If a fault can be created, however, it might be possible to access the system’s main core and shut it down. ______________________________________________________________________

<checkpoint 1>

.......................... ... ................. ... ........... ... Weakest link in the system seems to be in cooling mechanisms. Access to the <Fluid Conversion Station> would allow the discharge of enough coolant from the system that it would be detected as a system fault, and the security access lowered to level 2. This is beyond and through the bulkhead at the <Coolant Overflow Area>. FELIX OUT

______________________________________________________________________ One would have never thought it possible to alter a galactic body. This will be going down in the books. You've bought us enough time to gain control of the planetary defense systems. It was oh-so easy. You are now heading down to the surface for a quiet entrance. More instructions when we get them to you. We do not have any idea what is really down there. This is a new world to us, and no human has ever left this place alive I am sure. Let's change that once and for all and end the mayhem these beings have brought us. ______________________________________________________________________

<checkpoint 2>

.......................... ... ................. ... ........... ... Good, Security level is now at 2. There isn't any direct access passageways to the magnetic coil chamber, so a slightly awkward approach will have to be taken. We don't know yet what it is, so we will have to get back with you on that one. You will have to find the <Temperature Displacement Control> station. It will have a terminal in there for more instructions. I should have more Information for you when you reach this station. FELIX OUT

<checkpoint 3>

.......................... ... ................. ... ........... ... If system core operations can be reached, the frequency of the magnetic pulses in the <Magnetic Equilibrium Field> can be temporarily shut down long enough to correct the change in coolant pressure. This routine will lower security to level 1 - direct access to main magnetic control. Although, you can only get into this magnetic core through the coolant tubes. They are extremely turbulent, so it will be difficult. Your suit should shield you from any temperatures or chemicals within there, so don't worry about that.

<checkpoint 4>

.......................... ... ................. ... ........... ... After setting the magnetos to the new directions, head to the main Magnetic Control Room. Within is the switch to re-engage the full system, and if you set everything right, the moon should drift out of orbit, thus disrupting the balance of the Mystic's homeworld below. FELIX OUT
