I'm going to keep this brief.

Minimus and I have found Princess Xoria. But the queen- Xoria wished she'd disappear when they had an argument that night, without understanding what the orb was or what it would do. And the orb is either unable or unwilling to bring her back- believe me, Xoria's certainly tried phrasing her wish every way she can think of.

We'll be returning to the station shortly. I don't think we can do much good by sticking around.

Private to Yzak

If you're still set on your path, here are my coordinates. I'm not going to touch the orb, so once you make your bargain... we'll be sent back to the station.

The utter...callousness of these entities. Their morality is truly nothing like our own, if morality is in play at all.

Perhaps...they operate more as pure machines do, bound by their own logic to interpret as they do.

Chaos, indeed.

[and anything more he has to say on it is worthless speculation. he knows.

so instead:]
No others were harmed, yes?

To be so lucky in the singular casualty... [is that really luck? maybe, considering their past cases.]
