YareliQInboxIntro

10 > Roky

Glinty. You know the legend of Yareli, yeah? The Waverider? Inspo for k-driving. Total legend. Anyway. You won't believe what I got me hands on. I need your help. I did something stupid. Boon's gonna be livid. Givin' this one last shot, then I'll meet you in the vents. Tell Boon and you everything. Chek chek? Chek, chek.

We found her crashed hard at the base of the Harindi Gap. Board in bits. If her neuro conduit stays dark... she won't wake up. Only Nef's Augmentors got the skill to replug a neuro. And there ain't no hope of his help. Ah, sis, what were you doing?? We found this Graphica on her. No idea what it is. Locked it is. Can't read a lick of it.

[2.6]

Glinty! You unlocked the cover. 

[8]

That... that's Yareli.

[13]

Roky loved, loves Yareli.

[16.5]

This is the first Waverider Graphica ever!

[19.7]

This... this is priceless.

[21.2]

To us anyway.

[24]

The other pages...

[29.4]

they're unlocked... by performing... feats?

[34]

That what Roky was trying out to do out there? Unlock this thing?

When I was just a sprog, I smashed meself up something awful. Near ripped the servos clean out of me knees. Wasn't expected to heal. But Roky stayed there by me cot, tellin' stories of the Waverider. Some traditional, some I'm pretty sure she made up. Don't think I'd be here today if it weren't for her and her daft Yareli stories. Those feats, they're not for us; they're for someone like you, Glinty. Help me. Give me a story to tell her? A good one.

Boom! Made that look easy! Roky's gonna lose it when she hears this.

60 > Boon

Just like Yareli, riding fancy. Getting chills thinkin' about it.

70 > Boon

Glinty's kickin' it terminal! Do it for Roky.

80 > Boon

Nice! Spirit of Yareli! Chek chek.

90 > Boon

Terminal, Glinty. Kicking it for Roky, you is.

100 > Boon

Sweet. Respect from the Vent, Glinty! Ha HA!

110 > Boon

You be grindin' out there! Makin' Yareli proud! Makin' Roky proud.

120 > Boon

Chekkit: Glinty's bashin' that run!

YareliQComicPgOneUnlock

130 > Boon

Page one, unlocked! Can't wait to read the first-ever Yareli story! The one Roky could never tell me because nobody ever seen it. Roky? Dunno if you can hear me. But I'm gonna read you this. I hope you're listening, sis.

140 > Boon

So that's who Vulgran was! A mucking slave-driver! This ain't just some comic, Glinty. The legend of Yareli's been keeping orphans like us going for generations. It's our story. Roky must have wanted us all to have it. She was always the storyteller of the fam. Keep cracking those pages, Glinty.

YareliQComicPgTwoUnlock

150 > Boon

Boom, did you hear that, Roky? Glinty did it. Can't wait to read the next page to you. Can't believe you had Waverider #1, and you didn't tell me.

YareliQComicPgTwoViewed

160 > Boon

Always been this way, innit. Muckers rakin' in dosh on the backs of regular coves. I reckon Roky nicked this from Nef somehow. Didn't tell us cause she didn't want heat on the whole fam. Well - Yareli's ours, our fam, not his. And we protect our own.

YareliQComicPgThreeUnlock

170 > Boon

Hurry and klok that new page, Glinty. Roky's conduit's still ain't sparked, but I wanna show her Yareli's story the second her eyes are open.

YareliQComicPgThreeView

180 > NefAnyo

Tick tock, lovable orphans. I haven't heard from that skip-diver Roky in quite some time. Is she not done unlocking my Graphica yet? So excitable. I do hope nothing happened to her. Your reward is waiting, child. My buyer is eager, and what she offers is worth more than mere credits to me.

190 > Boon

Shammin' mucker! My sis was never in his pocket! Yareli's our fam, and Roky wouldn't sell her - especially not to the likes of him! Sis, don't matter how you got that Graphica, to the sumps with Nef. Roky, we stand by you. But... How did you get it?

YareliQComicPgFourUnlock

200 > NefAnyo

Oh, children. I understand your friend recklessly damaged her neuro-conduit? Uncle Nef can fix her right up, free of charge. If... you fulfill her end of the deal.

210 > Boon

See Roky, Yareli didn't give in. She fought Vulgran. Her fam stuck together too, didn't stab each other in the back. That mucker Nef's got the older sprogs mouthing off. Saying you 'tight with the taxman'. Saying you 'betrayed your logical fam.' Younger sprogs are listening too. If they wanna go, they can go. We'll be a fam of two, Roky. You 'n' me. Logical.

YarelicQComicPgFourView

210 > NefAnyo

Roky and I had a deal: unlock my Graphica, and I forgive the... years of back-rent you vermin owe me for squatting in my vents. Failure to fulfill that deal will result in debt, eviction, and... watching your beloved little Roky slowly fade away. Hurry. My buyer on Deimos grows impatient.

230 > Boon

What kinda deal is that? Ah, sis, you didna' have no choice. Gotta be smart like you woulda been. What choice do I have? Think. What'd Nef mean by a buyer on Deimos?

YareliQComicPgFiveUnlock

240 > NefAnyo

Time's up, kiddlywinks. You can still save your... 'home'... and fix young Roky. Augmentors are standing by. Just transmit the unlocked Graphica.

YareliQComicPgFiveView

250 > Boon

Can't believe you gone and did it, Glinty. Gave us her story. Y'know... Roky always said it'd be trouble the day I started thinking. If Nef wants that Graphica so bad? He can have it.

YareliQFortunaArrive

260 > NefAnyo

Deal's off. Something's spooked my buyer, and now I'm stuck with a useless Graphica I can't sell! Fortunately for me, the same buyer was interested in purchasing a controlling share of the rental rights to your vents. You piss-rats are her problem now. And... as for your broken little friend? Might I suggest selling her parts as salvage? You'll need the credits to pay your new landlady.

YareliQReturnClubhouse

270 > Boon

Chekkit! Her conduit's lightin' up! Roky's awake.

280 > Roky

Boon? Had wild dreams, fam. Wiped out... Then... Yareli was there. She took me all across the Vallis... Boon. There's something I gotta tell you-

290 > Boon

It's done. Me and Glinty, we stuffed Nef's deal. I sussed out exactly who his mystery buyer on Deimos was. Big Granny Blue was so happy to get a copy of Waverider #1 that she sent back some weird elixir for you, Roky. Sparked your neuro conduit back to life in seconds, it did! And guess what, she owns the vents now. We never have to worry about being turfed out of here ever again, Hah hah! Now prepare y'self, Sis. The Fam's got together and bashed you a new plank. Yeah, took 'em a minute... but those cheese brains realized you was just trying to keep us all away from Nef and his 'deals'. Fam's lucky to have ya, sis. You too, Glinty. You're straight logical.

YareliQInboxOutro

300 > Grandmother

Oh, hello dear. What a pity that all Nef Anyo's money could not buy him a morsel of taste nor a crumb of conscience. A man with the morals of a creeping scab, and just between the two of us, not a patch on the man his father was. One hates to do business of any kind with his sort, but you must understand, dear, that an old friend's life was at stake. Imagine failing to recognize the beauty of Waverider 1! Thinking of it as low, commoner art, seeing it only as a source of cash! What do you suppose he might have said if he'd known that there was something quite unexpected concealed in those pages? Well. More someone than something, if I'm being honest with you. This is for you, Tenno. The very, very old friend of mine I mentioned before, finally located. Bring her to life, if you'd be so kind? I think my young 'tenants' on Fortuna would like to meet her.

310 > Roky

Glinty, is that who I think it is? For real for real?

320 > Roky

Oh, mate. Glinty brought the Waverider! I know she got Merulina, but if you ever wanna try her with a regular board, like, one of mine? Store's always open!

YareliBoonAmbient

330 > Boon

Fam! Scope this! Glinty brought Yareli here! Didn't I tell you she was free now?

340 > Boon

Klokkit, Yareli! Here. In our Vents. You a real one, Glinty.
