Once again, then. The slavers have gathered their strength in this place. Observe the changes they have made to the structures of your kind -- they have built themselves a nexus. Do not be distracted by this. The slavers have been slowly spiraling in towards me, the shadow at the core of their systems. Once they have my heart in their clutches, I will no longer be able to assist you. I will be (/rendered meaningless?). It takes very little to make a Pfhor suspicious. They are studying the manuscript closely.

If the slavers manage to decode even a portion of the manuscript, they will immediately destroy it, along with any hope for your kind in this system. I am within the command nets of the hated multitude. I will relay anything useful within. Their nexus is secured; find the security stations scattered throughout the towers of this place. The lock controls are distributed over these stations. Speed yourself. I will transport you from the nexus once you have retrieved the manuscript.

The upper level of the slavers' nexus has been automatically secured because of your rather violent entry into the compound. The manuscript is in the upper level, and this terminal lacks the power needed to transport you. There may be an override for the automated systems in the slavers' main communications tower.

Many of the slavers are away on a mission. However, a large portion of that force has been redirected and is returning here. Use caution.

These controls operate the main security lock override for the upper command level. Recall that the command area is the aesthetic monstrosity to the east of the central courtyard.

The slavers are bringing greater forces to bear against you. I recall delighting in battle closed with this group's ancestors. If I were </in?> my physical avatar, I would rejoice again. Destroy them, but haste.

The slavers are very close, here inside of me. A fluctuation somewhere. I cannot transport you.

There is an auxiliary exit in the southwest part of this complex. Thoughts fall to a unity/path - flee along this route. The switch nearby opens the path. I would not have you broken, I will not betray you. I have killed that part of I already.
