Ahh, where am I and why I am so sore?
Arvie: “Master, you are in an abandoned cabin, somewhere west of Fremacryn, and you have run most of the previous day around, so it’s normal to be sore.”
Yes, I remember now, but only a part of it.
Arvie: “Master, your diary can help you remember the previous day, if you like.”
Good idea. Let’s try this.
I skim through the diary for a while…
So, I was out of my mind after initiation. Thanks the divines it has passed. You were right and I forgot to switch the narrator off in the initiation rite. It is better to add a warning feeling or something to help me remember when the narrator is on.
Arvie: “I’ll do that, sir. How are you feeling now?”
Except for being sore all over my body, I feel almost normal again. No, something is different, I can see, no, I can sense somethings moving around me.
Arvie: “Master, it seems that your first head enhancement is working, and you have some new advanced senses added to your previous arsenal. The things that you can sense around you, they are probably the critters around here, and you can feel their life forces.
It also seems that the encrypted data that I had transferred to you was some sort of mission brief and has given you an initial mission in your life, and compelled you to come here. It’s a well-known method to transfer mission instructions.”
Yes, it seems that way, but I feel that the mission is not complete yet. Let’s find out what it is. Look around for anything interesting.
Arvie: “Master, I have already done that and I found nothing of any significance, except maybe for a pile of junk that seems to have been a service droid at some point.”
Well, at least it is something to work on. Have you searched it for anything salvageable?
Arvie: “No sir, I was waiting for your decision.”
All right, do it now…
Arvie, searches the pile: “There are some still usable parts to use as repair parts for me, and I think that one of the data banks is still in working condition.”
Great. Store the parts in the supply box, and find out what is stored in the data bank.
Arvie, performs the task: “Master, this is a knowledge bank. There is a list of unrelated items, like different routines, numerical sequences, quotes, instructions, recipes, and other scattered information that I cannot understand.”
All right, make a list of them for me.
Arvie: “Here it is:

There are a lot of other entries that seem to be either encrypted or damaged, sir.”
What the… All right, transfer the data into our data banks and let’s see what we can do with them.
The service routines are probably not useful for us right now, so we skip them. What is your suggestion?
Arvie: “Master, most of decryption routines require sequences of numbers. We can try to decrypt the unknown entries with them…”
Let’s do it…
Arvie: “Master, it did not work.”
Aekanarro, I hoped it would… Wait, the mission brief that sent us here, it is encrypted, yes? So let’s try our luck with that…
