- Version History -
-------------------
Version 0.9 - (July 20, 2005) - While this script is not entirely finished
yet, I decided to go ahead and release it any way.  I still need to add a few
gameplay segments and get the correct lines for the Koroem dialogue near the
end.  If anyone finds any mistakes in this script or can help me with the
conversation near the end, Epilogue Scene 3 (there is a group of words that I
cannot figure out), then please email me at berserker_kev@yahoo.com
Version 1.0 - (July 24, 2005) - Added all the gameplay segments for Chapter 4
and 5, and Song Lyrics subsection.  All I'm really lacking is the words that
Koroem speaks.  Email me (berserker_kev@yahoo.com) if you can understand what
Koroem is saying at that one part.  Contact info was added in the Special
Thanks section along with something else as a result of too much free time
this weekend. ^_^
Version 1.1 - (August 22, 2005) - Added some words that I was missing for
Koroem as well as one other word for Chapter 5.  Cleaned up the Script a bit.
If anybody finds any mistakes in here then please email me about them.  I
don't care how slight they are. ;)
Version 1.2 - (April 23, 2005) - Corrected a few errors here and there.
Thanks to Charlie for emailing me about one.

Hello and welcome to my script dialogue FAQ.  This document contains every
spoken word from every cutscene within Advent Rising and then some.  I went
ahead and added the gameplay segments also.  Please enjoy the FAQ and if you
have any questions, comments, or see any mistakes that I have made then do not
hesitate to email me at berserker_kev@yahoo.com...I want bite your head off, I
promise. ^_^
A big chunk of the script was taken from some sub files located on the disc
for Advent Rising (yes there are some on there), but I had to go through and
edit a bunch of it to match the final version of the game.  Major kudos go to
Barnolde for getting me a copy of them.  There is a thread on the Advent
Rising Majesco message boards that may be of interest to some of you, it is
where I posted up most of the dialogue along with a few deleted lines that
were apparently taken out of the script for the final version of the game.  If
you're interested, then go to the following url...

==========================
- Prologue First Contact -
==========================
-- Prologue First Contact Scene 1 --
Flight Commander: Captain Wyeth, we'll be clearing the atmosphere shortly.
Confirm separation in twenty.
Gideon: Confirming twenty.
Flight Commander: And sir, good luck.
Gideon: Thanks.
Flight Commander: Release in 3, 2, 1.
Ethan: Shuttle Pilot this is Luriam Com, uhhh, do you always make your
approaches upside-down.
Gideon: (laughs) Hey Ethan!  Ah, you know that this view is one of my favorite
things about being a pilot.  I thought you weren't going to be on station
until later today?
Ethan: You know better than anyone that flying faster than regulation speed is
one of my favorite things.
Gideon: True, so who do I need to get fired for letting you in Coms?
Ethan: That information is classified...but I've got an appointment with her
when we get back from out mission.
Gideon: One of the benefits of being a famous pilot?
Ethan: Yeah, yeah, yeah.  By the way, here's your flight plan.  Wait till you
see the alien ship with your own eyes.  The vids they've been showing don't do
it justice.
Gideon: Woah, how big is this thing?
Ethan: It's...big.  Watch out for secondaries from the alien vessel, their
activity back and forth from the surface has been increasing.  C & C is still
trying to figure out why.
Gideon: Copy that, starting my...woah.  Ethan...
Ethan: I know, I know.  Now little brother, with the whole station watching,
could you do me a personal favor?  Straighten out your shuttle and try not to
hit the large alien ship.

-- Prologue First Contact Scene 3 --
Ethan: Hey little brother.  What took you so long?
Gideon: Ethan.
Ethan: I hope you're thirsty.
Gideon: Why?
Ethan: Because you're dumb and ugly, but I can do something about thirsty.
Ethan: So what will you have?
Gideon: I need something fresh, something with flavor?
Bartender: A good flavor or just a strong flavor?
Gideon: Good and strong!
Ethan: Just good.  We're both designated drivers.
Gideon: I can't believe they held up the mission for me.
Ethan: Well, they didn't.  It took three days to do a complete language dump.
Gideon: A what?
Ethan: They have a computer that translates, so we sent them everything ever
written in our language so it could learn.
Gideon: Everything? Doesn't that tell them dangerous things, like our level of
technology?
Ethan: Their technology is so far ahead of ours it doesn't matter.  If they
want to destroy us we can't stop them.
Gideon: So what about us?  Do we get to go aboard the alien ship?
Ethan: They better not try to keep us off the first alien ship to visit
Edumea.
Gideon: Unless the legends are true and Edagior really was destroyed by
aliens.
Ethan: There was never a planet called Edagior, so were not from it.  Good
job.  Not much dribbling.
Gideon: It's nice to drink something that wasn't generated from sewage.
Ethan: What do you think all those fresh fruits grow in?
Gideon: (grunts)
Bud: Oh, excuse me.  I thought you were some other war hero's suck up brother.
Gideon: I think he wants a fight.
Bud: Yeah, let's see what ya got.
Ethan: Gideon, the copilot of the first alien contact party can't go starting
a barroom brawl.
Gideon: You sure about that?
Ethan: Yeah.  That's the pilot's job.
-- Prologue First Contact Scene 4 --
Olivia: Gideon Wyeth...what are you doing?
Gideon: Olivia!  I'm helping some marines with their combat training.
Olivia: You're getting your uniform all dirty.
Gideon: These guys keep rubbing their blood all over me...(grunts)
Olivia: This has gone on long enough, now they're getting my clothes dirty.
Bud: Excuse me mum, but I can't kill'em if you're in the way.
Olivia: Excuse me then, I'll move.  You see Gideon, you just have to know how
to talk to them.
Gideon: Owww!
Olivia: Oh (giggles), did I hurt you?  Good.  You're both so stupid...getting
into a fight when you're on the verge of the most important mission in
history.  You're due for preflight briefing in ten minutes, but were you
coming to look for your fiancée?  No, you were making "kissee kissee" with a
bunch of marines.
Gideon: That doesn't mean I love you any less Olivia.
Ethan: Yeah, well, he did it for you.
Olivia: Oh? What, one of them insulted me?
Ethan: They didn't mention you.  Naturally, he had to beat'em up.
Olivia: (laughs) I'm still mad at you.  When you finish your briefing, I'll be
in my lab.
Ethan: I've got a couple of things to do before the briefing.  I'll meet you
at mission prep.
-- Training Cutscene --
Marine: Captain Wyeth, your brother isn't in the briefing room yet, and I was
told to give you quick refresher on sidearms use.
Gideon: I've already been trained.
Marine: You've been trained in hand-to-hand combat too, but it looks like you
forgot...a lot.
First exercise...
Marine: Now we're going to do some basic type coordination training.  I know,
I know, it's baby stuff, but I gotta check you off on an immediate test before
we move onto anything dangerous or fun.  Ok captain, I need to calibrate the
ranks to your weapon site.  Please target each of the colored lights as they
appear.
After first exercise...
Marine: As the colored lights appear captain, I'm going to need to fire at the
corresponding enemy hologram.  You see the red light, you fire at the red guy,
yadda yadda yadda.  Uh, if you can't figure this one out, you'll be required
to wear a helmet at dinner.
Upon finishing training...
Marine: Thanks for the visit captain.  It's been a real treat.  It sounds like
your presence is requested down in the tactical combat training room.  Please
move to the open elevator to proceed to the TCT room.
As you enter the TCT room...
Instructor: Welcome to the Luriam Skystation Holographic Tactical Combat
training room, here you will be confronted with enemy combatant sims sequenced
along urban combat protocol vectors.  They'll be using live ammo captain, so
please, take the time to familiarize yourself with the medical stations
located around the arena.  They'll provide you with a burst of tight core
nanomeds thus saving us the costly waste of recessitation or funeral expenses.
Please proceed through either of the armatures and arm yourself with a
provided weapon to begin your training.  The door will open momentarily.
About the Faust C41 (pistol)...
Instructor: Standard military issue Faust C41, a .90 caliber concussion pistol
with armor piercing rounds.  Ok, I'm going to send in your first squad of
combatants.  These sims are set on a primary level captain, let's found out
how you got your rank.  Your big brother hasn't shown up yet...engage.
About the Rockwell Young XJ9 (Assault Rifle)...
Instructor: This here's model is a Rockwell Young XJ9 with ceramic pistons
release shaft and submounted grenade launcher.  If your disregard for safety
and procedure is as deeply rooted as I suspect you might enjoy wielding one in
each hand.  Our moneys on you losing a finger in the next five minutes.
About the graviset...
Instructor: The panel on the wall right there is the TCT room graviset in most
areas on Luriam we use it to easily lift and maneuver heavy objects and
equipment.  Here, however, we've found all kinds of interesting uses for it.
About the Talmage 50.08 (rocket launcher)...
Instructor: So you're interested in the big boy guns huh?  This is the Talmage
50.08, a nasty little tank gun that loads up to 3 molipack self-propelled
rockets.  These rockets can be fired along a straight vector or alternately
guided along a sonic pathway.
First Checkpoint
Instructor: Congratulations Captain Wyeth. I'm sending in another group of
digital bad guys at a higher tactical setting. Hmph, you've got an audience
captain!  A group of marines just showed up and they're itching to go head to
head with you.  Sounds like you've been making friends in the local bar.  As
soon as you're done playing around in there come join me back in the TCT
control room and we'll get you prepped for live combat.
Second time
Instructor: Ok, I'll send in the next round of sims.  As soon as you want to
face off with the real thing just come back into the control room.
Third time
Instructor: Loading the next squad.  Looks like you're enjoying this sir
Fourth time
Instructor: Hey, I'm going to go take my lunch break...mind turning off the
lights when you're done here.
Return to TCT room...
Instructor: Ok, now that you're done playing with toys lets get down to
business.  Looks like Bud and his squad swapped practice sessions with the
next group scheduled to be in here, just to play with you!  What an honor!
This will be a live combat exercise.  Your weapons will be replaced with
senaptic stun pistols on a lower setting, but there is still a chance for
injury in this scenario, so please use caution and restraint, but also be
aware that you will be sorely mocked for anything less than victory.
Ethan: Hey little brother!
Instructor: The other team is now set up Captain Wyeth, and if I'm not
mistaken you're esteemed brother just entered.  Welcome sir!  It's an honor
just to have you here.  Will you be joining your broth...I mean the captain
for the next round?
Ethan: Yeah.
Instructor: Very well sir!  Please arm yourself with a stunner and enter the
arena.
-- Prologue First Contact Scene 5 --
Ethan: Good work Gideon!
Bud: The game was rigged!
Marine: It's always rigged for grunts like us Bud.  Get used to it.
Ethan: Maybe there's a reason why I'm an officer and you're not.
Bud: I'm sick of emo's like you showing no respect for the soldiers who do all
the grunt work. (grunts)
(shots fired)
Ethan: Hey, loose the pistol!
Marine: This isn't the time Bud!
(shots fired)
Gameplay dialogue
Ethan: The gun!  Get the gun!
-- Prologue First Contact Scene 6 (Kill Bud) --
Commander: Cease firing!  We've called a medical officer and the MP's.
Marine: You didn't have to kill him!
Ethan: Your friend was shooting to kill.  If you didn't want him dead why
didn't you stun him?  You did the right thing Gideon...this guy was gonna keep
coming after you.
Major 1: He's dead.
Major 2: We've already reviewed the session vids...clear case of self defense.
Marine: He picked a fight with Bud in the bar.
Major 2: We saw the vids.  We know who had it in for who.  Now, get out here
if you don't want to get arrested yourself!
-- Prologue First Contact Scene 8 (stun Bud) --
Bud: Ahhh...
Marine 1: Hey, thanks for not offing him.
Marine 2: He gets crazy sometimes, but he's not a bad guy.
Commander: Everybody drop your weapons.  Nobody go anywhere!  MP's are on
their way.
Marine 1: We won't let him try anything again.
Ethan: If he does, I'll kill him.
Bud: Awww...
Major: We've seen the vids on this...clear case of assault.  This boy's going
to the brig for a few years and he's never gonna go into space again.
Marine 2: Good marine, stupid guy.
Ethan: The only stupid guy here is my brother.
Gideon: Look, I thought I could stop him without killing him.  It was my call
and I was right.
Ethan: Yeah...this time.
=================================
- Chapter 1 Hostile Negotiation -
=================================
-- Chapter 1 Hostile Negotiation Scene 1 --
Major: Attention.  You can come in now Ambassador Landwell.
Ambassador: Thank you major.
Major: My men will have this under control, but we don't know what to expect.
I want you properly armed.  This is the Haze Blaster, it's still in prototype,
but these have been tested and they work.  If things go wrong, our assignment
is to protect the ambassador.  Your assignment is to return to the ship and
get it ready for takeoff.
Female Aurelian: (native tongue)
Female Aurelian: (native tongue)
Major: Here you put it in your ear.  You're expendable.
Ethan: Gideon used to put shiny things in his ear when he was a baby too.
Gideon: Ah...ahhh, ok, that doesn't feel good.  It's taking root.
Female Aurelian: (native tongue)
Female Aurelian: Now, do you understand me?
Gideon: Yes, I do.
Ambassador: What's she saying?
Gideon: It's the universal translator.  It's painless.
Kelehm: Sisters and brothers, prepare yourselves.  What we have searched for
so long we know will see.  Please beg the glorious human visitors to enter.
We've searched a long time.  Many lifetimes our people have looked for you,
glorious humans...survivors.
Enorym: Kelehm, you have proven right, though I doubt it.  These appear to be
humans.
Ambassador: Please, don't kneel to us.  It's wrong.
Enorym: We came in the hope to save you from the Seekers, but we failed.
Ambassador: The Seekers?
Enorym: Those who destroyed your ancient home world.
Kelehm: We thought our voyage was secret, but as soon as we received your
broadcast signals, someone on the cargo ship sent a message capsule, now they
will come...and this time they will leave no survivors.
Ambassador: How long do we have?
Enorym: Maybe two days, probably less.
Major: Two days!  What can we do in two days!
Enorym: This is a great tragedy...you will all be killed.
Major: What kind of weapons will they be using?
Kelehm: They throw rocks.
Major: Rocks?  They throw rocks?
Kelehm: Asteroids...
Gideon: If there's nothing we can do then why did you come.
Ethan: Gideon you're not the ambassador.
Ambassador: If there's nothing we can do then why did you come.
Kelehm: The Aurelian people are ashamed to have brought such calamity upon
glorious humans.  We pray to all the gods that some of you survive.
Ambassador: How?  How will we survive?
Kelehm: I promise, all that we can do to help human survivors, we will do.
Gideon: On the whole, I'd say that went pretty well, apart from finding out
that the human race is doomed...everybody was polite, and they were really
apologetic about getting us all wiped out.
Major: We're not wiped out yet.  We have weapons.
Ethan: Our ships have the power to blast small asteroids out of the way.
Major: It's better than nothing.
Gideon: It is nothing.
Major: Look, we're not going down without a fight.
Enorym: May all your enemies loose their way.
Kelehm: It will be a great victory if any humans survive.
Gideon: What the...!
Ethan: So much for two days!
Ethan: Time to abandon ship!
Gideon: No way.  They're blowing up the escape capsules anyway...might as well
just stick with the ship.
Ethan: We're a big fat target and half the maneuvering rockets aren't
responding.
Gideon: So it will be an ugly landing.
Ethan: You're the expert on ugly landings.  You take us in.
Gideon: Are you all right?
Ethan: I have a heartbeat...and my right knee want hold me.
Gideon: I've got you.  Come on.
Ethan: That...was the lousiest landing I've ever seen.
-- Chapter 1 Hostile Negotiation Scene 2 --
Ethan: Give me your weapon.
Gideon: That's your plan.  Give the gun to the cripple?
Ethan: Look, I'm a better shot and you're too busy helping me walk.
Gideon: (Sigh) Someday you're going to trust me.
Gideon: What the...?
Ethan: Come on!  Let's move!
Gideon: What are they doing?
Ethan: It looks like it's scanning him.
Gideon: What are they looking for?
Ethan: How would I know.
Gideon: Let's...not get scanned.
Gideon: I think you just trapped everybody else in there with the Seekers!
Ethan: And how many of them do you think were gonna get out of there alive?
-- Chapter 1 Hostile Negotiation Scene 3 --
Gideon: Doesn't look like Olivia is here.
Ethan: I'll stay here and help protect the pods.  You go get Olivia.
Gideon: No Ethan, you go now.  Separate pods!
Ethan: Don't be stupid.  I can't trust these guys to hold a pod for you. Now
hurry.
Gideon: Wish me luck.
Ethan: Wait, you'll need this more than I will. Find Olivia and get back fast.
-- Chapter 1 Hostile Negotiations Scene 4 --
Gideon: Egan, is Olivia still down in the science center.
Egan: They're scanning everybody!  They're taking most of the scientists.
Gideon: But Olivia...is she?
Egan: I haven't seen her but if she's there, she's in trouble.
Girl: Are there any escape pods left!?
Gideon: Lots.  Go for it.
Marine: We can't let them get through to the escape pods!
-- Chapter 1 Hostile Negotiation Scene 5 --
Gideon: Uh, Hey gorgeous.
Olivia: You shouldn't have come back for me.  We'll never make it to the
escape pods from here.
Gideon: Don't worry.  Ethan is holding one for us.
-- Chapter 1 Hostile Negotiation Scene 6 --
Gideon: Better go back into that room, Liv.
Seeker Commander: Where are the soldiers I left here?
Gideon: I killed them.
Seeker Commander: Why don't you little worms give up and die?
Gideon: And miss the chance to kill monsters like you?
Seeker Commander: Yes, I'm a monster.  The only question now is do I kill you
quickly or do I pull you apart with my bare hands?

Gideon: Come on, just a little farther.
Olivia: I hope a few thousand of them fry when the station burns up on
reentry.
Ethan: Gideon, you found her!
Gideon: Ethan!  You're not dead.
Ethan: Not for lack of trying.  Get her into a pod!
Olivia: I can run it alone.
Gideon: It's a shooting gallery between here and the pods.  I have to be with
you to cover you.
Ethan: So, take her and go!
Olivia: Help your brother.

Gideon: Olivia!  Get your hands off her!  No!  Olivia!
Ethan: If I'm dead, please tell me so I don't have to keep going.
Gideon: You're alive, I'm alive.
Ethan: We're in the middle of nowhere and I can't walk real good right now.
Gideon: So sit there and rest while I look around.
Ethan: Oh man.
Gideon: We've got to get out of here!
-- Chapter 2 Surface Tension (Save Olivia) --
Gideon: Mph! Ethan! Don't you touch him.  No!  Ethan!
Gideon: Let me look around and see if there's anything here we could use.
Gideon: Aw man...
Olivia: They're not going to bother with us are they?
Gideon: Yes they are!
-- Chapter 2 Surface Tension Beginning Gameplay (Save Ethan) --
Ethan: Ugh...my leg is still busted up.  (sigh)  We're gonna need some wheels
if we want to get to Bar Hahn within the year.
Gideon: Hmm, I think I see a port station over there.  You wait here, I'm
going to requisition something.
-- Chapter 2 Surface Tension Beginning Gameplay (Save Olivia) --
Olivia: I...I don't think I can walk.  We need to get to the Bar Hahn
platforms before these aliens.
Olivia: Hey how do we get to military road up there?
Gideon: Hmm, I think I see a port station over there.  You wait here, I'm
going to requisition something.
-- Chapter 2 Surface Tension Scene 3 (Save Ethan) --
Driver: You two were the only ones in that pod?
Gideon: Yes Sir. We were with Ambassador Landwell.
Driver: You two were the pilots, Ethan and Gideon Wyeth?
Gideon: Yeah.
Driver: That definitely takes precedence over my mission.  Get these toys
turned around.  We're getting these two heroes on board.
Gideon: Ethan needs medical attention.
Ethan: I'm fine.
Gideon: As you can see, he's delirious.
Driver: All right, get the casualty into that scythe and get him to the medic
at the base.
Ethan: I'm not going to go to some med center while Gideon gets all the glory.
Gideon: No body in government wants you to bleed all over their fancy office
carpet.  Now shut up and get some treatment so you're actually good for
something when it's time to fight again.
Ethan: Well, when you explain it calmly and reasonably.

Wyeth?
Gideon: Was.  They got him just as our pod took off.
Driver: I'm sorry man.
Gideon: We've got to get Olivia to a doctor.  She got shot just as we were
boarding the pod.
Driver: We're not far from a hardened underground base.  We can send her in
one of the scythe's and I'll take you...
Gideon: I'm staying with her.

Gideon: Wait, you guys headed over to the Command Center.  I'm supposed to
meet Admiral Torn there.

Admiral Torn: Yes.
Gideon: Sir, Captain Gideon Wyeth reporting
Admiral Torn: Gideon Wyeth.  I thought we had his brother.  I must say I'm
fairly surprised to see you here in one piece.  Sounds like you've had an
interesting trip through high orbit to get here.  We'll have to discuss that
sometime.
Gideon: Yes Sir.
Admiral Torn: For now who these bastards are and what they want.  The few
reports I was able to pick up from Lurium before she fell are sketchy at best.
They've hit every major population center, every military base, I, sigh, we've
never seen this kind of military power before.  You were on the Ambassadorial
Shuttle, right Captain.
Gideon: Yes sir.  The species we met with seemed to be...
Admiral Torn: Species? So the reports of this being an entirely different
group of buggers are true.
Gideon: Yes sir.  This new element seems to be concerned with some sort of
scanning of the human brain.  It appears that they are searching for
something.  I witnessed multiple...targets, both military and civilian,
summarily executed following the scanning.
Admiral Torn: Searching for something, sigh, some of my advisors have put that
idea forward as well.  Have you seen them take any prisoners?
Marine 4:    General, Sir.  Priority line from deep four wide band coded urgent,
Sir.
Admiral Torn: Thanks, private.  This is Torn.  Yes, that would explain the
withdrawal sir.  But what about our ballistic...all gone?  (sigh) Yes sir,
thank you.
Admiral Torn: I suggest you find a way off planet as soon as you can, son.
Gideon: Sir?
Admiral Torn: I'm telling you now before the panic starts.  Find a ship.  The
sirens will be starting shortly.
Gideon: But what about you sir?  Can I...
Admiral Torn: I'll be staying here Captain.  This is going to be something to
see...really something.
-- Chapter 3 Extinction Agenda Scene 9 (Save Ethan) --
Gideon: You know Bar Hahn better than I do.  Where's the nearest military
launch platform?
Ethan: The ships will all be spoken for and blocked off.  We need to get over
to the civic sector and hotwire something, that's our only chance.
Gideon: Did you seriously just say hotwire?
Ethan: I'm just saying we'll need to get in a ship using any means necessary.
-- Chapter 3 Extinction Agenda Scene 9 (Save Olivia) --
Gideon: We need to get off this planet now.
Olivia: There's a civilian airstrip just north of the med labs.

Marin: Where do you think you're going?
Gideon: Hey, hey, hey, hey, we need to get out of here.
Marin: Who doesn't?  Ask him if we have any room.
Gideon: You don't understand.  We were on the alien contact ship.  We have
information that may be crucial to the survival of...
Marin: How do I know you're not lying to try and grab my ship like these
jerks.
Gideon: Listen we...
Ethan: Let me handle this, Gid.  I'm Ethan Wyeth flight commander of the...
Marin: Uh, I know who you are.
Ethan: OK and this is my brother Gideon.  Please Captain...
Marin: Steele.  Captain Marin Steel.  You should have said something earlier
Mr. Wyeth.  With all the flak coming down I could use some men who can handle
dorsal cannons in a dogfight.
Ethan: I'd imagine you'd like some help prepping for take off.
Marin: Oh sure, sure.  Do you think you can handle keeping our boarding ramp
free from any more uninvited visitors.
Marin: The engine's hot.  Let's move!
Gideon: Here we go!
Marin: Hang on, it's gonna get rough. OK, let's punch a hole through this
mess.  Now what, enemy fighters headed this way.  Take the guns!
Gideon: I'm on it.
Marin: Whoa!  That was close!
Marin: Are you ready yet, Wyeth.  Let's see if you can give me enough open
space to get outta here in one piece.
Marin: There's two more headed back our way.
Gideon: I'm on it, I'm on it.  These things are fast.
Gideon: Let's move!
Marin: Not too bad, Wyeth!  Maybe I'll keep you around.  OK, I think we're
good.  Where, where's everyone...where's everyone else?  Stat Com do you read?
Come in Stat Com.  I'll try military channels.
Radio Chatter:    Be advised we are tracking something different.  This thing is
huge.
Marin: What the...Wah!
Radio Chatter: It's coming in even faster than the others.  Report to
evacuation points immediately.
Marin: Wyeth get up here!
Marin: This can't be...Okay, okay we need to get in touch with any other ships
that made it past.  Can we do that?  Is anyone there?  Can someone hear me?
What's going on?  Is our com unit busted.  I wonder if the shock from the...
Gideon: Hold on, hold on.  Go back.  I think I can tell what they're saying.
Marin: What!?
Ethan: My brother got an alien party favor stuck in his ear while we were on
their ship.  Helps him understand their weird language.  What are they saying,
Gid?
Gideon: It's a call, a plea for any surviving human ships.  They offer
assistance and they want a...
Marin: Assistance, you can't be serious.
Gideon: No, no, no.  These are the first beings that we met with.  They're
friendly, almost too friendly.  We were welcomed onto their ship like gods.  I
think they were trying to warn us of the attack.
Marin: So I'm supposed to believe that there are not only one but two advanced
alien species out there with a simultaneous interest in little old Edumea.  I
mean millions of years go by without so much as a "Hello there" from the great
beyond and for some reason they both pick today to come out of the closet.
Gideon: The Aurelians, our first contacts, were trying to get here first to
warn us.
Marin: Nice timing.
Gideon: And now they may be our only chance of surviving.  How many days worth
of 02 does this ship hold? Do you think we have enough fuel to find another
planet in the next star system over?
Marin: You're asking me to trust an impression you got from a handshake.
Ethan: Captain, listen to the com. The rest of the bands are silent.  There's
no one else out there.
Marin: Call your friends Gideon.
-- Chapter 4 Extinction Agenda Scene 1 (Save Olivia) --
Marin: Where do you think you're going?
Gideon: Hey, hey, hey, hey, we need to get out of here.
Marin: Who doesn't?  Ask him if we have any room.
Gideon: You don't understand.  We were on the alien contact ship.  We have
information that may be crucial to the survival of...
Marin: How do I know you're not lying to try and grab my ship like these
jerks.
Gideon: Listen...
Olivia: Please forgive his excitement, uh Captain?
Marin: Steele, Captain Marin Steele.
Olivia: Captain Steele, what he was saying is true.  We were both stationed on
Lurium and have vital information that...
Marin: So who are you?
Olivia: I'm Dr. Olivia Morgan and...
Marin: You're a doctor?
Olivia: Uh yes, I am. I
Marin: What about him?
Gideon: My name's Gideon Wyeth and I...
Olivia: He's a pilot.
Marin: Well, why didn't you say something earlier Mr. Wyeth, with all the flak
coming down I could use someone who can handle dorsal cannons in a dogfight.
Come on then, I'm just about finished flight prep.  Do you think you can
handle keeping our boarding ramp free from any more uninvited visitors?
Marin: The engine's hot.  Let's move!
Gideon: Here we go!
Marin: Hang on, it's gonna get rough.  OK, let's punch a hole through this
mess.
Marin: Now what, enemy fighters headed this way.  Take the guns!
Gideon: I'm on it!
Marin: Whoa!  That was close!
Marin: Are you ready yet, Wyeth.  Let's see if you can give me enough open
space to get outta here in one piece.
Olivia: There's two more headed back our way.
Gideon: I'm on it, I'm on it.  These things are fast.
Gideon: Let's move.
Marin: Not too bad Wyeth!  Maybe I'll keep you around.
Marin: Ok, I think we're clear.
Marin: Where, where is everyone, where is everyone else?  Stat Com do you
read, come in Stat Com.  I'll try military channels.

Gideon: Hold on...Hold on...go back.  I think I can tell what they're saying.
Marin: What!?
Olivia: Remember the worm in his ear that I mentioned earlier?  Apparently
it's a sophisticated universal translator that's loosely related to the common
sea slug.
Olivia: What are they saying Gideon?
Gideon: It's a call, a plea for any surviving human ships.  They offer
assistance and they want a...
Marin: Assistance, you can't be serious.
Gideon: No, no, no.  These are the first beings that we met with.  They're

-- Chapter 4 The Awakening Scene 4 (continued) --
Enorym: Greetings Exhalted Ones.  Our supply of translation implants was lost
aboard the mothership so we pray gesture will suffice.
Gideon: Ah, Sir.  I was on the diplomatic shuttle and was able to get one
before all hell broke loose.
Enorym: Interesting.  Our joy in this association can only be overshadowed by
the monstrous tragedy you have suffered.
Kelehm: The N'Kul, the beings who savaged your world, they prefer the
benevolent title of Seeker.  It is a term which the civilized universe has
never been able to see past...
Enorym: Until now...When the galactic senate hears of this, that our long held
suspicions are true...
Kelehm: Patience my friend, we will deal with further strategies when we reach
Aurelia.  Until then, we have honored guests hungry for comfort and truth.
Kelehm: I imagined you would eventually find me here.
Gideon: Earlier you mentioned something...something about hidden powers?
Kelehm: I am a remnant of the ancient religion, human. All of the civilized
races have individuals with the seeds of this power.  Our prophecies say that
the humans are the originators and the masters and that through them our own
shall blossom.
Gideon: Do you have this gift?
Kelehm: I do, human.  It is my hope that with it I can kindle something inside
of you.
Gideon: Well I've never been any good at magic tricks.
Kelehm: Oh no, human.  This is something far greater than any trick.  This is
your purpose and it courses through every cell of your body.
Gideon: Okay, so what can you do, with this power I mean?
Kelehm: Gideon, this is the sum total of a being's undeniable confidence.  A
power which. If harnessed can bend all the energy of the stars to your
disposal.
Gideon: So this power is a weapon.
Kelehm: Interesting that you would infer that.  So the human would have me
teach him.
Gideon: Hold on, I'm not a believer yet.
Kelehm: Very well.  See the shell here on the table in front of you?
Kelehm: Watch!  I have never been able to sustain it for so long.  Are the
sayings true?
Gideon: Sayings?  Hey, how are you...?
Kelehm: And through their presence shall all be made strong.
-- Chapter 4 The Awakening Scene 2 --
Marin: Good timing.  Looks like were about to come out of hyperspace.
Enorym: You see before you my home world Exhalted Ones.  The famed beauty of
the undying seas await us.
Aurelian 1: Commander, Seeker Destroyer off starboard.  They're charging
weapons.
Enorym: This cannot be!  We'll never stand a chance against that kind of
firepower.
Enorym: Seran, bring us inside their firing radius.  Get me close enough to
smell the dirty beasts.
Aurelian 1: But Commander, their shields will tear us apart.
Enorym: All crew are ordered to don their vacuum gear and abandon ship.  My
brave warriors what lays ahead may be the deadliest challenge of your lives.
Enorym: Our foe has gone unchallenged and unbeaten for centuries.  It is my
hope that this assault will find them overconfident and unprepared.

Seeker Elite: A human, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha...Oh!  This is too good.
Gideon: You destroyed my world!
Seeker Elite: Oh dear, the little savage is upset.
Seeker Elite: I have personally slain more of your pitiful kind than ever
lived on that sad little rock you call home.  You are going to wish you had
died with the rest of your sorry world.  My kind has perfected the art of
slaughtering humans, little man.  You are about to learn how deep pain can go.

Kelehm: Quick everyone, defensive positions.  We must hold command deck at all
cost.
Kelehm: (over radio) Master Enorym we have the command deck.
Enorym: We're pinned down in the second hangar!  Send reinforcements!
Kelehm: Gideon!
Gideon: Yes sir!
Kelehm: Take those three soldiers and go to the hangar, Enorym needs you!
Marin: Be careful you bone-headed showoff!  This isn't the time for glory.

Ethan: Gideon!

Gideon: Ughhh, Ethan!  No!  No!  Ethan!  Ethan!
Enorym: They are lost.  There is nothing we can do.  Don't let their sacrifice
be in vain.

Kelehm: My son, my son...
Enorym: This is not easy Exhalted One and I fear we are not through with such
tragedies until our goal is met but our fiery entry into Aurelia's skies did
not go unnoticed and this beach will soon be crawling with Seekers.  We must
put aside our grief for a moment and focus on survival.
Kelehm: Can we not give them a moment, Enorym?  They have lost so much.
Enorym: I can only dare to imagine their pain, Wise One.  But my duty is to
preserve their lives.  We must get off this beach and out of site before their
scouts arrive.
Gideon: I know I'm not the only one who suffered loss today.  So we need to
get away from the crash site...away and into cover.  Enorym, where can we go
until we figure out what to do next?
Enorym: The city of Arniss lies on the other side of this canyon, Exhalted
One.  There we will find protection and brave allies.
Gideon: I'm sick of people dying for me.

-- Chapter 5 Crossed Lines Scene 1 --
Kelehm: And so, our suspicions were once again proven true, my fellow council
members.  It is now beyond a doubt the N'Kul, the Seekers, have a dark and
murderous face the galactic society has never seen.  We find that they have
been stabbing at the very heart of our most deeply held faith.  These four-
legged charlatans must be exposed...
Sevan: Charlatans?  What an interesting label you would so dismissively toss
at the beings who have freely given us the reasons as to build the very
structure you stand in today.
Gideon: Who is this guy?
Enorym: Counselor Sevan.  He's from the North in Archipelago.
Gideon: He looks like he has an icicle shoved up his...
Enorym: Very observant, Exhalted One.  Counselor Sevan is our Ambassador with
the planet side N'Kul.
Marin: Maybe they put the icicle there.
Enorym: Please, Exhalted One, do not make me regret giving you a translator.
Kelehm: Our race, Counselor, has been in indentured servitude for a thousand
years for it.
Sevan: Exactly ten centuries of labor given faithfully through blood and tears
into your suspicious hands and you would throw it to the wind based on your
feeble suspicions and nightmares.
Kelehm: We are no longer talking of suspicions and nightmares, Sevan.  We are
talking about the mass murder of an entire people.
Sevan: Our Seeker benefactors have the power to grind us back into the puddles
our ancestors crawled from and you think it wise to turn and challenge them at
the very cusp of our freedom.
Kelehm: You seem to have become something very different from the rest of us,
Sevan...something very different indeed.
Kelehm: And as for your animal suspicions, I have something here that you
might find interesting, or someone.  Enorym, if you will.
Seeker Ambassador: This council meeting is over.  The council is to dissolve
their membership and any submissions they may have offered are to be held...
Kelehm: How dare you!?  This is a planetary ruling council and you are in
breach of galactic law and when the Senate hears of this...
Seeker Ambassador: Enough!  You pathetic worms have gone too far!
Kelehm: Now we see the true face of our masters.
Seeker Ambassador: (growls)
Seeker Ambassador: Seal off this chamber...the rest of you can start the
cleansing.
Enorym: You foul monsters!  You want blood.  Come and taste mine!
Enorym: No!
Gideon: Nooo!
-- Chapter 5 Crossed Lines Scene 2 --
Seeker Ambassador: Human, stop.  You do not realize that I am on your side.
Gideon: My side, what do you mean you're on my side?
Seeker Ambassador:  There are those who will want to meet you. Powerful beings
who can open up unlimited avenues of possibility for one like yourself.
Gideon: What powerful beings?
Bounty Hunter: (gibberish)
-- Chapter 5 Crossed Lines Scene 3 --
Bounty Hunter: (gibberish)
Bounty Hunter: Hold still...hold still or I'll skin you alive.
Bounty Hunter: I can see now why they were worried.  I had hoped to take you
alive.
Gideon: Ughhh! Ugh.
Bounty Hunter: I have never seen a bounty this high...maybe your corpse will
buy a new world.
Bounty Hunter: Oh!  Ughhh!  Ah...Ahhhhh.
Enorym: It should now be plain to all gathered here that the Seeker threat is
real and pressing.  We must take the fight to them.  As long as they have the
faster than light communication capability of their ansible tower, they will
be pulling all of their forces to defend N'Kul's strong points and hold out
until their homeworld reinforcements arrive.  If the main Seeker Armada turns
its eye upon our little world, my bretheren, we will surely suffer the same
fate as thousands of worlds before us.  We need to make sure they never do.
Our spies have successfully sabotaged the ansible.  We need to strike hard and
fast and take the capability out of their hands permanently.
Enorym: We will be inserted into a valley south of the Ansible.  From there we
will move through the tunnels until we reach the temple annex.  This plan
depends on our stealth and speed to be successful.  The Aurelian fleet should
be over our head shortly after we have the cannons in our possession.  We will
be outnumbered and out-gunned, my brethren.  Charge your weapons and ready
your blades.
Marin: What's wrong?  Forget where the trigger is?
Gideon: You know it just occurred to me that this is the only thing I have
left from home.
Marin: You mean you forgot to pack underwear.  Hey I was just kidding, you're
underwear's your own business.
Gideon: You can't come on this mission, Marin.
Marin: Oh yes I can!
Gideon: Let me explain.  There's nothing left of our world.  Nothing left of
humanity.  To venture out on a ridiculously dangerous mission with both of
us...I don't know what I was thinking...If I lost you, I mean if either of us
were lost.
Marin: Gideon, I...I don't, wait...why should you get to stay.  I've got way
more experience than you.
Gideon: If things go bad here, one of us needs to find a way to get past the
Seeker Armada and stand before the Galactic Senate.  The Seekers need to be
unmasked.  Humanity's voice must be heard.  If I fail, if we can't shut down
this, this ansible then you, you're humanity's last hope.
Marin: OK, you've made your point.
Enorym: What is the delay, Exhalted Ones.
Marin: Dad grounded me.
Gideon: What she means to say is that after some consideration Marin will
return to Arniss with the drop ship.
Enorym: I am relieved by the wisdom displayed by the Exhalted.
Banath: Commander, the enemy sentries are swinging back towards our location,
we must move now.
Enorym: There has been a change of plan, Banath.  You are to take two of your
Felidic Guard and escort this Exhalted One back to Arniss.  There you will
keep her under close guard until this mission is fulfilled.
Banath: But, but, Commander, this mission is already a long shot...to cripple
ourselves from the onset by losing three of our best.
Enorym: I have given you a command, Banath.  This outburst is beneath your
discipline.  Call your Guard and move on my orders now!
Enorym: He is my fiercest warrior and most able Captain.  Forgive his passion
Exhalted Ones for therein lies his greatest strength.
Enorym: Our troops are prepared.  Now we must move.  Farewell Exhalted One.
-- Chapter 5 Crossed Lines (Beginning gameplay) --
Felidic Warrior: Exhalted one, our spies report that a network of tunnels
through these surrounding cliffs will lead us to the temple entrance.
Felidic Warrior: From there we can slip unnoticed into the ansible base and
work our mischief.
-- Chapter 5 Crossed Lines (Inside the first small cave) --
Felidic Warrior 1: These tunnels are so empty.  Does it not strike you as
suspicious?
