Intro

10 > LittleDuck

Alad V's sellin' the latest in "asset security". Conduits. Put the key in, and ya can pull the shinnies out. Trick is, you gotta wait to open. Somethin' happens to the Conduit before you can pull the goods? You don't get the goods. Ever. Also the bleeders Alad sold the tech to will try to kill ya.

10 > Ordis

Operator, incoming transmission. It's from... Fortuna.

20 > LittleDuck

Give that console the ol' bypass so we can get this thing started.

Dsrp

30 > LittleDuck

Well, looks like the Infested snagged this one. I haven't seen this many zits since puberty. Fortunately for us, the Conduits are still operational. Unfortunately for us; so are the security mechanisms.

40 > LittleDuck

This isn't your regular vault job. Alad V sold the Conduits with interference routines, specifically designed for the Tenno. Don't you worry though, I got some workarounds.

50 > LittleDuck

This isn't your regular vault job. Alad V sold the Conduits with interference routines, specifically designed for the Tenno. Things might get a little weird.

StrtMsn

60 > LittleDuck

Conduit keys are carried by high-ranking muckity-mucks. Knock 'em down, see what they got.

FrstKeyPkUp

70 > LittleDuck

First key. Right. Find a matching Conduit.

SptFrstCndt

80 > LittleDuck

That there's a Conduit, useless without the key. Start turnin' out pockets.

FrstDefStrt

90 > LittleDuck

That key worked. Protect the Conduit. And watch out for demo units, they're going to try and blow that thing up.

FrstDefStrtRnd

110 > LittleDuck

You're about due for more a those whatsits: Interference routines. Demo units too.

120 > LittleDuck

Can't do anything about that last interference routine. You'll just have to wear it. Maybe I can catch the next one.

130 > LittleDuck

Right, they're havin' a go. Keep the demos away from that Conduit.

140 > LittleDuck

Next verse same as the first. Mind you don't get flanked.

150 > LittleDuck

More of the old ultraviolence. Keep your back to the objective, old mate. Lock it down 'til she pops.

Demo

160 > LittleDuck

Demo unit incoming. Don't let them near the Conduit.

170 > LittleDuck

Hear that beeping? Demo unit's on its way.

180 > LittleDuck

Demo unit coming in fast. That thing blows and you can kiss the Conduit goodbye.

190 > LittleDuck

Demo units lookin' to depart this mortal coil and take you with it. Keep it clear of that Conduit.

BffRcvd

200 > LittleDuck

Routine subverted and you're juiced. Nice. Shoulda been a boffin. Missed me callin'.

210 > LittleDuck

Looks like Alad was so keen to make the sale he didn't close every back door. Greed makes a person sloppy, Hotshot, remember that. Enjoy the boost.

220 > LittleDuck

Perforrrmaaaance... improvement? Won't be looking that Kubrodon in the mouth...

230 > LittleDuck

Fiddlin' with an incoming routine. Howzat feel?

DefComp

240 > LittleDuck

Hope you're not done. Had to pay Maroo a small fortune in rations for this "tip".

250 > LittleDuck

Takings squared away. Right: same again?

260 > LittleDuck

Got a few seconds before the system resets. We can take 'em again. Game?

270 > LittleDuck

Care to live up to your reputation and try again?

280 > LittleDuck

Not goin' home yet, we just got here.

DefCompFvPls

290 > LittleDuck

Why's ol' Alad call you lot Betrayers anyway? Ah, no matter care for another kick at the Conduit?

300 > LittleDuck

Alright... it's gettin' a little hairy. One more round, whaddya say?

310 > LittleDuck

Conduits about to reset. Feelin' lucky?

320 > LittleDuck

The longer we stick around the more likely we'll get our arses handed to us. Still, with great stupidity comes great reward. Whaddya reckon?

330 > LittleDuck

Gettin' a little hot. The gloves are comin' off. Got another round in ya?

DefFld

340 > LittleDuck

Arse. Conduit down.

350 > LittleDuck

Conduit destroyed. We won't be seeing those goods again.

360 > LittleDuck

Conduit down. Look, Mumsie may have raised you believin' winnin' aint the most important thing, but piece of advice? It is.

370 > LittleDuck

They killed the Conduit.

380 > LittleDuck

That mucker got past you and now the Conduit's blown. Move on, move on.

390 > LittleDuck

Conduit blown. Mate: this is not how bills get paid.

400 > LittleDuck

Conduit blown. Find another one.

410 > LittleDuck

Conduit destroyed. Dust yourself off. There'll be another 'round here someplace.

MssFldDef

420 > LittleDuck

Nothin' ventured. You want round two, ping me.

430 > LittleDuck

Such is life, eh?

440 > LittleDuck

All Conduits sealed. I'm pullin' you out.

MssFldDead

450 > LittleDuck

Hotshot? C'mon, pal. Get up. Hotshot!

460 > LittleDuck

I've lost the feed. Where are you?

470 > LittleDuck

I'm punchin' out. Hotshot, if you can hear me, make contact at the usual locale. Little Duck, out.

480 > LittleDuck

Sorry, kid. It was a bad play.

ExtChsn

490 > LittleDuck

You got out while you still could. Smart move.

500 > LittleDuck

Way ahead of you. Time to hit the pub.

510 > LittleDuck

Chekchek. Ejectin'.

520 > LittleDuck

Shinnies secured and we're in the wind. I'll send your cut via the usual. Have a good one.

530 > LittleDuck

We got as much as we're gettin', Hotshot. We are a vapor trail.

NwRndStrtd

540 > LittleDuck

Wakey wakey. Here. We. Go.

550 > LittleDuck

Lock and load.

560 > LittleDuck

Right. They're back, and they're well pissed off.

570 > LittleDuck

Eyes open, sunshine. Here we go.

580 > LittleDuck

Bulk signal returns. Dig in.

590 > LittleDuck

Safeties off. We kicked a clown car. Here we go.

BffIntFnd

600 > LittleDuck

What's this now? A failsafe. Yeah, heard about these. They'll cancel any running interference routines. But there's only one per system. Don't waste it.

610 > LittleDuck

Conduit failsafe. Pop that ducky in a console and it'll cancel any active interference routines. This is the only one.

BffIntUsd

620 > LittleDuck

Interference routines wiped. Your timing is impeccable.

630 > LittleDuck

Good choice, that failsafe should make the next few moments a bit more bearable.

640 > LittleDuck

Failsafe in effect. Pay no mind to the interference routines for the next little bit.
