Chapter 12: Aftershocks

Reconstruction on Perimeter Six hits a buried problem: a corrupted nest the purification sweep never reached, stirring right beneath the new foundations.

Chief Engineer Elena
Perimeter Six broke ground on the first new foundation this morning. My sensors also just broke ground on a corrupted signature two hundred meters under it. Wonderful timing.
Jane Doe
Nothing gets to touch that foundation. Not after everything it took to lay it.
PILOT
Then we dig it out before the concrete sets. Move.

This conversation uses an older floor number than the current mission length. It is included here for story reference; its original timing may differ from your playthrough.

Chief Engineer Elena
Nest's gone quiet - permanently this time. That's the third pocket we've missed under a 'purified' zone. The array cleanses fast. It doesn't cleanse deep.
Jane Doe
So we go deeper. Every time. However long that takes.
PILOT
However long it takes. Perimeter Six gets its foundation back today.

Chief Engineer Elena
Foundation crews hit something under the new district that the purification sweep never touched. It is stirring. That is the polite word for it.
PILOT
We just rebuilt this place. Please tell me we are not doing this twice.
Jane Doe
Whatever slept through the purge earned its nap the hard way. Wake it up properly this time.

Chief Engineer Elena
Nest confirmed contained. The foundations hold. So does my blood pressure, barely.
Jane Doe
Perimeter Six earns its name again. Twice built, twice defended.
