[SALVATION ANNALS:: SERVITOR NIRIKS Perception Feed dump:] [[Filtering Highspeak]] ER: The call for aid is sent. This conversation is over. IX: You owe me answers. ER: You owe allegiance to your Kell. Prepare your nest for evacuation. IX: They will kill you. Or worse. ER: A cost I will gladly pay. Our people will not survive the Scorn on our own. IX: But in what state will we survive? ER: Anything is better than annihilation. IX: You may feel differently in a Human cage. ER: Leave. I have weapons to prepare. Where Scorn go, he often follows. IX: As ever, I walk my own path. If I don't see you again, I will know another piece of Old Riis is lost. [A snap-hiss. Metal groans and shakes.] IX: You can't lead from a cage. You can't inspire from the grave. ER: I do what I can. With what I have.
