IntroToTheHub

20 > Loid

Ah! My lonely vigil is over. Follow me, Tenno, and on no account wake the family! Despite their conflicts they sleep in peace, but a solitary dream plagues me.

30 > Loid

You must understand: constructs CANNOT dream. And yet, I have.

40 > Loid

In my dream, one single name repeats. KALYMOS.

50 > Loid

(GASP)

60 > Loid

The memories surface, long locked away. This was no dream, Tenno. It was a precept. The Kalymos Sequence.

70 > Loid

I must fulfill this dormant precept. The Kalymos Sequence has begun, and it cannot be undone.

80 > Loid

I have one responsibility in the Kalymos Sequence: Awaken the Sleeper. But I cannot do it alone. Please, assist me once more?

90 > Loid

I fear we are off the edge of the map, and into the domain of monsters. Master Entrati never completed his final project: the VESSELS. The Sequence dictates they cannot awaken before the Sleeper does.

110 > Loid

Do you hear that? Let us hope The Sleeper is untroubled by such... strangeness. Find them.

EnterTheLabs

120 > Loid

Necramechs. Poor, abandoned things. Still faithfully following Master Entrati's last command, to defend. Show mercy, Tenno. End them.

130 > Loid

There! That book was like a diary to Master Entrati, his grimoire! No doubt it holds the secrets of the Vessels, and of the Kalymos Sequence! Take it, Tenno!

131 > Loid

The grimoire is very… active. It is… reading… you!

140 > Loid

I confess it galls me slightly to see a compendium of knowledge used as a weapon, but needs must. We need be in no doubt of your skill, at any rate.

141 > Loid

Master Entrati called it the Voidtongue. He feared it was meaningless... and feared more that it was not.

150 > Loid

A monstrous danger, these labs. Better off sealed. We can only hope The Sleeper has been untouched by this vast horror. This great Indifference.

160 > Loid

I ask too much of you, Tenno. These horrors must be stopped!

170 > Loid

Right. Onward.

180 > Loid

A trap? Master Entrati jealously protected his most adored possessions - be they objects… or people. Come. The Sleeper awaits.

190 > Loid

It's… it's…! Oh no.

CinWakeLoid

200 > HumanLoid

The Kalymos Sequence has begun? Did he send you? Is he... No. No, of course he didn't. That would be impossible.

210 > Loid

This is, well, Loid. The original. All emotional centers very much intact. Did you have a good sleep?

220 > HumanLoid

Ah. The 'helpful' Necraloid my Albrecht had made, so that I might have assistance... and company. Perhaps that made it easier for him to leave.

230 > HumanLoid

Resume your duties, construct.

240 > Loid

"Resume your duties, construct."

250 > HumanLoid

Please, follow me, ah…

260 > Loid

This is a Tenno. An orphan of the Void, continuing the struggle our Master abandoned.

261 > HumanLoid

A Tenno? A deserter, presumably? Is it not aware there's a war going on? So. The war, too, is just a memory now.

265 > Loid

Tenno, while Loid completes his inspections, you'd better meet the Cavia... a reminder of darker times. Though Master Entrati always hoped the awaited Operator would be able to understand them?

267 > Loid

Ugh, an... incomplete experiment, one might say.

270 > HumanLoid

Albrecht left a great deal incomplete. The Vessels are unfinished, like a book one might one day return to. Operable, barely. The Sequence dictates I am to wait for their Operator... Clearly, that cannot be you?

280 > Loid

It can be. Tenno, Master Entrati's Grimoire suggests you are the key. That colorless antique there - use it.

290 > HumanLoid

Kalymos, obviously.



Hmm.

300 > Loid

Kalymos, obviously.



Hmm.

Nearly done with this bitch of a year.

I wish we could just start over.

Find that Dr. Entrati bastard on day one.
