Somewhere in this testing station is a cache of minimic film reels, detailing what exactly the Old Empire was doing in this facility. This cache was hidden when the lab was sealed, so it may be hard to find. And the scavengers occupying it don't make matters any easier. Good luck!
Objectives
- Enter Imperial Testing Station 2
- Find the Minimic Film
- Report back
Findings
Contract item: Imperial Testing Station Records
A box marked as belonging to the record department of Imperial Testing Station No. 2. Someone interested in the history of this facility would probably pay for this.
DIALOGUE
Asking Derek to teach you (getting mission)
Player: I would like to learn from you. DEREK CHINARA: I would gladly teach you, but there is something I must do. Perhaps we can help each other out. Player: What do you need? DEREK CHINARA: Hmmm... you look like something that stumbled out of a shipwreck. I don't have any way to pay - unless you're interested in a planetary ecology lesson? Player: (Accept contract) I can help you out - we can discuss lessons afterwards. What do you need me to do? DEREK CHINARA: That's easy - somewhere in the station is a manifest containing a full log of the supplies that were sealed within. Bring me the manifest. Player: I'll return with the manifest. DEREK CHINARA: Be careful, the people in that lab are... odd. Player: Odd how? DEREK CHINARA: I hadn't gone very far into the lab when some of them charged at me, screaming and brandishing knives. They were covered in... gore. I ran. Player: [1] That sounds unpleasant. [2] Did they look sick? DEREK CHINARA: (1) <TODO> (2) There was a glaze to their eyes and a stiffness to their movements - but they looked normal enough. Maybe some form of mass hysteria. I don't know.
Giving Derek the film (completes mission)
DEREK CHINARA: You've come back. You don't know how rare that is on Arrakis. Have you done as I asked? Player: I've brought you the manifest. [Delivery Screen] DEREK CHINARA: You have? That's incredible. I thought those crazies down there would keep me stuck here forever. [...] Oh, wonderful. Say what you will about the old empire, but they knew how to keep a record. Player: I believe you offered to teach me something about planetary ecology. DEREK CHINARA: Yes of course. I haven't forgotten. Pay attention. "Life - all life - is in the service of life... " [Time Passes] DEREK CHINARA: There, though I must confess I wasn't expecting such an apt pupil. It was more like you were remembering than learning. Odd.
