#14 – Standby (Part 1)
[ReticentMystery]*Legacy, we have a problem.
[ResplendentLegacy]*And what would that be?
[ReticentMystery]*The 009IO/P34 power stations are not inactive. Actually, they are performing at close to 100% efficiency.
[ResplendentLegacy]*How did we not know this?
[ReticentMystery]*None of it is being used; therefore, no emissions to detect. Anyway, remember we are no longer inside an installation. This “Reclaimer”’s armour has very little in the way of transmission detection. Not to mention significantly less computing resources.
[ResplendentLegacy]*Yes, that’s starting to test my patience a little. Waiting for memory to respond is not how I usually want to spend my time.
[ReticentMystery]*Anyway, the power stations are working at full capacity… but someone has triggered a standby q-phase. The power is building very quickly. If it is not released soon, the excess of energy will leak and even that will be enough to kill the person inside this suit, and probably us as well. However, I am more concerned with the fact that the 009IO/P34 stations are capable of such generating power after these years. The last recieved log states that they were out of comission awaitng parts only 107.3 pulses ago. Of course, since we no longer have spare parts for this type of facility, I expected it to be unused. Someone has gone to great lengths to repair this Miras installation.
[ResplendentLegacy]:This is strange. Readings of this installation indicate a build-up of power.
[ReticentMystery]:Analyzing…
[ResplendentLegacy]*At this rate of build-up, the energy storage systems will notbe able to hold the rise in energy for long. Why so much power? They could easily open a Type 2 rift to the Galactic Centre with that ype of energy.
[ReticentMystery]:All systems indicate a standby event. The resulting power spike will be enough to cook you right inside your armour.
[ResplendentLegacy]:Attempting to compensate.

[ResplendentLegacy]Cmd:decommission(target=009IO/P34)(status=emergency)
[os/ui.exe]*State reason and provide authentication.
[ResplendentLegacy]Cmd:decomission(reason=Miras/Portsdam.78988GH/ASH90)
[os/ui.exe]*Reason accepted. Installation is likely to attempt Type 7 transportation.

[ReticentMystery]*Not to hurry you, but we are running out of time…!
