Please elaborate. + +#(GENERAL_INFO_1) arilou-012.ogg +You are curious. That is a promising quality. +How can I describe our relation to Humans?... +Never doubt our motives, Captain. Your well-being is of paramount concern to every Arilou. +Surely you know, that it was the day after Humanity joined the Alliance Of Free Stars +that we appeared in the open for the first time. This was no coincidence. +We wanted to protect you. Once we saw that you were...well, safe +we decided to tend to other business for a short while. +Believe me, Captain, we have known each other for a very long time. +You might even say that we knew the first human. + +#(GENERAL_INFO_2) arilou-013.ogg +You have painted our pictures on cave walls, erected standing stones and pyramids for us. +You have wondered at our signs to each other in your wheat fields +and written books about our more personal endeavors +when we allowed you to recall our examinations. +We have a history together, Captain, and you have come a long way. +But I must tread carefully. You are not ready for everything +and I fear that you would not understand what was best for you. + +#(GENERAL_INFO_3) arilou-014.ogg +As you know, we never revealed where in the galaxy one could find our homeworld. +There was a good reason. We are not from your space, or your... *time*. +Some of your more broad thinkers refer to such realms as other dimensions. +Though trivialized, this is a suitable metaphor for your intellect. +Perhaps you know of the Orz. Like us, they are dimensional travellers +but that is where our similarity ends. +Do not trust the Orz, my Human Captain. They are dangerous. +But as to your question... our relationship +To call our interaction with your kind an experiment would be much too simple and impersonal. +Let us just say that we have a vested interest in your... development. +You are one of our... extended family, just as other sentients in other dimensions +have their extended families. +We are proud of you as you would be of your children, and some day +well, I have said too much already. + +#(GENERAL_INFO_4) arilou-015.ogg +You already know more than is appropriate.

Then what? + +#(DO_IT_BECAUSE) arilou-018.ogg +Why we let them go, of course! *Nnngn* do not like to be confined! +Captain, these things we talk about... they are unimportant to you... they are as dreams. +Our words should address your universe... not ours. + +#(give_me_info_1) +We still struggle against the Ur-Quan. Can you help us? + +#(ARILOU_HINTS_1) arilou-019.ogg +With ships and weapons... blood and bones... no. +Too many shipmates were forcibly... discorporated.. in the last conflict. +Our cooperation is not necessary.

Here is the sequence: +The Ur-Quan fleets have moved through your solar system and you are defeated. +Your people make the choice not to fight with and for the Ur-Quan. +A shield is cast about your world. Your people are now safe. This makes us happy. +The Armada departs your star system and moves toward the remaining Alliance members +ourselves, the Syreen, the Yehat and their adopted Shofixti. +The Yehat and Shofixti withdraw to Delta Gorno, but they do not permit the Syreen to follow. +We are content with the flow of events and leave the area to return here. +From our perspective, this sequence of events ends here. + +#(what_about_urquan) +Well what about the Ur-Quan? What are they up to? + +#(ABOUT_URQUAN) arilou-034.ogg +Soon after the Ur-Quan defeated the Yehat and imprisoned the Syreen in Betelgeuse +their siblings arrived to initiate the Doctrinal Conflict. +This battle continues as we speak. + +#(best_if_i_killed_you) +I think it would be best if I killed you now. + +#(WICKED_HUMAN) arilou-035.ogg +Instinct.

This creature, a super-intelligent, physically coercive creature +is very similar to a race of beings which was thought to have vanished over 20,000 years ago. +They were called the Dnyarri, and history tells that they ruled a wide region of this galaxy +for many thousands of years. The Dnyarri were cruel and devious +and when they were finally overthrown by one of their slave-races +they were supposedly exterminated. +Perhaps this Talking Pet is the degenerate product of the Dnyarri. + +#(what_do_about_tpet) +So what should we do about this Dnyarri creature? + +#(DANGEROUS_BUT_USEFUL) arilou-044.ogg +The Dnyarri were the most inimical race this galaxy has known. +In other dimensions, other *times*, there are far, far worse beings +but they do not threaten you at the present time. +During their reign, the Dnyarri possessed absolute power over all intelligent species in this region. +They used their slaves for all menial tasks and many forms of depraved entertainment. +If the Talking Pet we gave to the Umgah has attained the coercive abilities of its ancestors +we must assume that other Talking Pets can do likewise. +Therefore the creature must be considered the most dangerous being in the galaxy. +Its destruction is necessary... unless +you can find some way to gain control over the creature! +If you could do this you would have a powerful weapon against the Ur-Quan. +Of course, if you made one mistake, you would be the Dnyarri's slave forever. + +#(what_give_me) +You said you had much to give my people. Can you be more specific? + +#(ABOUT_PORTAL) arilou-045.ogg +As you know, we live in a dimension adjacent to HyperSpace which we call QuasiSpace. +Our ships move between these dimensions through weaknesses in the inter-dimensional fabric. +Although many such weaknesses, or Portals, exist which lead from our dimension, QuasiSpace +to various locations in HyperSpace, there is only one naturally occurring Portal +which will transport a ship from HyperSpace to QuasiSpace. +We therefore find it convenient to generate our own Portals artificially +with focused dimensional fatigue rays. +As a sign of our long-standing relationship with your species +we would happily fit your vessel with a Portal Spawner of its own +but your ship is so massive, our units would be ineffective. However +we suspect you may find a sufficiently powerful warp pod, the key element in a Portal Spawner +in the wreck of the Ur-Quan Dreadnought on the seventh world at Alpha Pavonis. +Bring that warp pod back here, and we will prepare a Portal Spawner for your vessel. + +#(what_about_tpet) +You mentioned a Talking Pet. How did you find one? + +#(ABOUT_TPET) arilou-046.ogg +We are an endlessly curious species, and we spend much of our time on +how should I say, reconnaissance missions. +During one such trip, we witnessed the crash landing of an Ur-Quan Dreadnought +on the surface of Alpha Pavonis VII. +Normally, when an Ur-Quan vessel is disabled, it automatically engages self-annihilation circuits +to prevent other species from learning the Ur-Quan's technological secrets. +In this case, however, these circuits must have failed. The Dreadnought did not disintegrate on impact. +We landed to explore the wreckage, and were amazed to find a survivor... a Talking Pet! +As you may know, the Ur-Quan use these non-sentient creatures for the task of inter-species translation +a task the Ur-Quan find ultimately demeaning. +The Talking Pet was severely injured, and we did what we could for the poor creature +but it grew clear that without superior measures, the Talking Pet would die. +We turned to the Umgah, whom we have known for many centuries. +Their bioscience skills are far superior to our own. +The Umgah promised to do what they could, and let us know how the Pet fared. +We have not heard from the Umgah since. +Perhaps, if you are travelling through their stars, you can ask them for us. + +#(about_portal_again) +Can you tell me about that Portal Spawner thing again? + +#(PORTAL_AGAIN) arilou-047.ogg +Certainly. As a sign of our long-standing friendship with your species +we would be happy to fit your vessel with a Portal Spawner +allowing you to jump from place to place in HyperSpace, without travelling the intervening distance. +However, your ship is so massive, our normal warp pod units are insufficient +but you will find a sufficiently powerful warp pod in the wreck of the Ur-Quan Dreadnought +on Alpha Pavonis VII. Bring that warp pod back here, and we will prepare a Portal Spawner for your vessel. + +#(got_it) +I have obtained the Warp Pod unit from the Ur-Quan wreck. + +#(CLEVER_HUMAN) arilou-048.ogg +What a surprise! +As we have always said, Humans are a MOST resourceful and clever species. +We are so proud of you! But don't worry that you shall have to wait. + +#(GIVE_PORTAL) arilou-049.ogg +We are prepared. Even now our technical personnel are equipping your ship +with a custom version of our Portal Spawner device. +The device is useable only in HyperSpace. Whenever it is activated +the Spawner will focus several inter-dimensional fatigue beams adjacent to your vessel +opening a temporary hole into QuasiSpace. Move quickly through the Portal! +After your ship has passed into QuasiSpace, you can choose any of the nearby Portals +which lead back to HyperSpace, thus saving you needless transit time. +Be keenly aware of this fact! The Spawner requires a great deal of energy to function. +We estimate that each time you use the device, it will consume ten of your fuel units. + +#(bye_friendly_homeworld) +Goodbye my Arilou friends. + +#(GOODBYE_FRDLY_HOMEWORLD) arilou-050.ogg +Goodbye clever child. + +#(HOSTILE_GOODBYE_1) arilou-051.ogg +We have said all there is to be said. +We would prefer your immediate departure, but are prepared for your attack. + +#(HOSTILE_GOODBYE_2) arilou-052.ogg +Your behavior is clearly inimical.

Except for... certain parts... +Our cultural development is also mostly parallel. +Like you Earthlings, we evolved a society from primitive tribes +whose main function were to protect themselves from the large reptiles native to our old world. +The main difference between our two sets of cultures... the split in the paths of our development +occurred in what would have been your prehistory, say 5000 BCE. +In your world, the agricultural communities were conquered by the more primitive but also more aggressive, migratory herding peoples. +This led to a particular kind of sexual and political dominance structure +which pervaded almost all of your Earth Cultures until the early Twenty First century. +On Syra, our only primitive migratory tribes were confined to our mountainous regions. +Their herd beasts, the Yma, did not do well in the agricultural basins and plains. +The two cultures were isolated until much later +when the technological superiority of the farmers curtailed any major conflict. + +#(what_about_homeworld) +What was Syra like? + +#(ABOUT_HOMEWORLD) syreen-022.ogg +It was our paradise, Captain, our Eden. +Earth is the only world we know of whose variety and richness of life even comes close to Syra. +Again, like so many other things about our two species, our worlds were very much the same +at least before you began encasing yours in concrete and plastic. +Syra's gravity was a bit lighter than Earth's, and its day was fifty percent longer. +Our diurnal cycle is therefore different from yours. +We spend twenty hours awake, followed by ten hours... horizontal. + +#(what_happened) +What happened to Syra? + +#(DONT_KNOW_HOW) syreen-023.ogg +This subject is very difficult for us, Captain, +but I will try to recount those sad days. +Like your solar system, ours had a large population of comets and asteroids. +Large meteor impacts, though rare, were not unheard of on our planet. +So it was not a total shock when an asteroid penetrated our atmosphere and hit the surface. +What was odd was that unlike most other meteors, this one was not pulverized on impact. +It penetrated the crust, and indeed went all the way through to the mantle +causing a `super volcano'. +The earthquakes caused by the impact were severe. +The magma pumped out of the caldera wreaked significant damage on the nearby terrain +but within a few weeks, it had cooled, forming a solid rock bandage over the wound. +Within a few months we had cleaned up the mess, the caldera was calming down nicely +and things were pretty much back to normal. +Then, just over a year after the impact, all hell broke loose on the surface of Syra. +Huge calderas were opening all over... not just around the meteor impact, but everywhere! +The scope of the disaster is impossible to imagine +Entire cities sliding into oceans of molten lava +kilometer-wide sections of land pulverized by a cataclysmic explosion +and clouds of poison gas and superheated steam created a death shroud around Syra. + +#(what_about_outfit) +Come on now, isn't that outfit, knife included, a bit absurd? + +#(HOPE_YOU_LIKE_IT) syreen-024.ogg +Maybe some other time, Captain, I can show you the hidden functionality of my uniform +knife included! + +#(where_mates) +What happened to the males of your species? + +#(MATES_KILLED) syreen-025.ogg +When Syra was destroyed, the only people who survived were in orbit +and most of them were members of our newly established, mostly female, Space Patrol. +From their ships, their orbital platforms and their lunar outposts they watched Syra die. +Within three days after the cataclysm began, the surface temperature of Syra had risen by almost 75 degrees +to above the boiling point of water. +It became clear that Syra, our paradise, our Eden, was gone. +The survivors spent years in orbit. They made a few missions to the surface +and actually found a handful of survivors, but their main activity was to make preparations for departure. +The Space Patrol fitted makeshift drive units to anything that could hold air: +orbital factories, research pods, even hotels. When the fleet was ready, they left orbit and never looked back. +The final population of our species was less than ten thousand, with only five hundred males +but they were the best and the brightest. +For the next seventy-five years, our people wandered at sub-light speed through the stars +looking for a new home. + +#(get_lonely) +Don't you ever get... lonely? Hmmm? + +#(MAKE_OUT_ALL_RIGHT) syreen-026.ogg +Ha! ha! ha! Don't worry about us, Captain! +We make out all right. + +#(bye) +Goodbye, Commander Talana. I will be back. + +#(GOODBYE) syreen-027.ogg +Until then, Earthling. + +#(MUST_ACT) +Captain. The secret of the Mycon's monstrous murder of our planet has changed the attitudes of many of my people. +We will not sit here and do nothing while the Mycon fiends are free to roam the galaxy, perpetrating their evil. +You wanted our cooperation in fighting the Ur-Quan. You've got it... provided +you first help us seek our revenge against the Mycon race... help us to destroy them! + +#(whats_next_step) +Okay. So what do you want us to do? + +#(OPEN_VAULT) syreen-028.ogg +Our first step is to get some mobility. +We have some fine starship officers on board, and they are all eager to go after the Mycons, +but without our Penetrator starships, we're totally ineffectual. +So our first step HAS to be recovering our Space Patrol combat fleet. +We know that the Ur-Quan didn't destroy them... they never waste anything +but we believe they have sealed them in some kind of deep vault in the surface of an alien planet. + +#(where_is_it) +Do you know where your ships are? + +#(DONT_KNOW_WHERE) syreen-029.ogg +No, that's your job. +But maybe we have some clues to help you find them. +The starship officers who flew the Penetrators to the vault did so with total sensor black-out. +The only thing they could use for navigation was the presence of the Dreadnought fleet surrounding them. +When they arrived at their destination and lowered their ships into the immense vault +they were transported to the Dreadnoughts and only caught a split-second glimpse of the outside world. +As far as they could tell, the sun was either red or orange. Based on their trip-time calculations +the farthest they could have travelled is about 200 HyperSpace distance units. + +#(been_there) +I've already been there. The vault is on the moon of Epsilon Camelopardalis I, but I couldn't open it. + +#(GREAT) syreen-030.ogg +Wonderful! Then the job is already almost complete! + +#(GIVE_SHUTTLE) syreen-031.ogg +Captain! We have assembled a small team of our most skilled officers. +we will send them to your ship on board their own small shuttle. +We feel that in the interests of efficiency, we keep our officers away from your crew +at least until the mission is over. +As soon as you arrive at the vault, our people will take over, figure out a way to open the vault +and bring our Penetrators back here. + +#(im_on_my_way) +Very well then, Commander Talana. I'm on my way. + +#(doing_this_for_you) +Just remember, I'm doing this for you Sweet Cakes! + +#(if_i_die) +If I die... just remember that I... I... really like you! + +#(GOOD_LUCK) syreen-032.ogg +Good luck, brave Earthling. When your mission is successful +maybe then we can... get to know each other better. + +#(OK_FOUND_VAULT) syreen-033.ogg +Good, now we can proceed with our plan for REVENGE against the Mycon! +From our analysis of the Deep Child fragments you showed to us +and a review of the recorded Mycon transmissions from the War +we have established the kind of world the Mycons desire for their hideous Deep Children. +They need a planet like your Earth... or our Syra... one rich in water and oxygen +and possessing a molten, active mantle. +Our plan is to lure the Mycons to such a planet, and then attack them when they least expect it. +We know of just such a world. +When the Ur-Quan were analyzing their mass of planetary data to find a new home for my people +one of the close candidates, ranked just below Gaia, was a blue world orbiting close to the star, Organon. +Captain, we need your services again. Here is what you must do. +You must go to the Mycon and tell them of this world. +They will find that the world is suitable, and when they go to Organon +we shall be there... waiting for them. +Then we shall destroy them! + +#(what_now) +Are you sure the Mycon are going to fall for this? Why should they believe me? + +#(HERES_THE_PLAN) syreen-034.ogg +For all their evil, Captain, the Mycon are a naive race. +They have great difficulty understanding deception. +If you tell them what they wish to hear, they will believe you. + +#(whats_my_reward) +So! What if I die doing all this dangerous stuff? What about... us? + +#(HERES_REWARD) syreen-035.ogg +I'm afraid BOTH our duties will be dangerous, Captain. +We may never see each other again. +But for now, at least, there's this... + +#(bye_after_vault) +I'll miss you, Talana. + +#(GOODBYE_AFTER_VAULT) syreen-036.ogg +Don't worry, my human. We will be together again... some day. + +#(HELLO_AFTER_AMBUSH_1) syreen-037.ogg +SUCCESS, Captain! The Mycons' fleet is in shambles! +JUSTICE IS OURS! +We have revenged ourselves against the heinous Mycons! +They fell for our trap so completely! +When they approached Organon I, we were hiding behind its moon. +As they approached, their ships broke combat formation +in preparation for their hideous implanting ceremony. +We waited until they were fully dispersed around the planet, then we attacked! +The standard Mycon tactic would have been to speed out of orbit using a gravity whip maneuver +but the Podships refused to abandon their slow-moving Deep Children spore pods. +They remained in the gravity well, and WE SLICED THEM TO RIBBONS! +They must have lost a dozen ships to their own stupidity... running into their own Plasmoids! +The rest?... well we took care of most of them... in our own special way. +and Captain, now that we have taken our revenge on the Mycon +we give you our starship officers and Penetrator designs so that you can add our ships +to your fleet. + +#(HELLO_AFTER_AMBUSH_2) syreen-038.ogg +Hello brave Earthling. Your return is welcome. +My people, the Syreen, shall be forever in your debt. +In fact, many of my officers wish to thank you... personally... for your efforts on our behalf. +I suggest you set aside a week sometime in the near future +so that you can properly receive your hero's welcome aboard this starbase. + +#(HELLO_AFTER_AMBUSH_3) syreen-039.ogg +Oh, Captain! The flush of victory still has my body quivering! +For so many years we have dreamed of putting the death of our beloved homeworld behind us +and now this has finally come to pass! +We no longer live in the past... caught in memories of what COULD have been. +Now each of us plans for the future... toward the bright tomorrow! +And you know what, Captain? +I have plans... Plans you would be most interested in hearing +but I shall save them for later... when we can meet... privately. + +#(HELLO_AFTER_AMBUSH_4) syreen-040.ogg +Ah! My beautiful Captain from Earth! +What can I do for you... please tell me. + +#(what_now_after_ambush) +Is there anything else I can do to you - um! - I mean, do FOR you. + +#(DO_THIS_AFTER_AMBUSH) syreen-041.ogg +Captain, the next step is to pull down the slave shield from our planet. +In my opinion, the only people who could do that are the Chenjesu +and as far as I know, they are under a shield of their own. +Actually... I'm just dodging the real issue, Captain. +Your agenda really has only one item... Destroy the Ur-Quan Hierarchy! +How to do that? I'm not sure +but I know you can't take them head-on, even with that amazing ship of yours. +You will have to find their weak spot, and then strike it with everything you've got. + +#(what_about_you) +So what happens to you now? + +#(ABOUT_ME) syreen-042.ogg +I expect I'm going to be pretty busy for the next few months +overseeing repairs to our fleet of Penetrator starships +and preparing some kind of defensive system for this starbase. +If and when the Ur-Quan return here, we want to have a little surprise ready for them. + +#(whats_up_after_ambush) +So, what's new Talana? + +#(GENERAL_INFO_AFTER_AMBUSH_1) syreen-043.ogg +Not a great deal, Captain.

I must go. + +#(what_about_you_1) +A truly unique set of events put you in your current state. Am I right? + +#(ABOUT_US_1) utwig-031.ogg +Hah, to say the least! +Our past is one of a glorious and proud people coupled with a cataclysm that rocks the Universe +to its very core! +It all began when the Chimt rose from the Murky Bog and the Utwig emerged as well. +In these primitive times we cavorted about our world oblivious to any sort of higher purpose +we took everything at face value. +Meanwhile, the tendrils of the Chimt infiltrated the vast sky canopies of Fahz and then the veils fell! +Suddenly, the Utwig were stunned by a collective realization! +All immediately and urgently donned veils of every description! Hides, leaves, shells, rocks +even living drells were donned in the early days. +You see, the face is the mechanism that expresses many of the primitive qualities that hinder sentience. +Now rid of constant reminders of greed, rage, hatred, and lust +the wisdom of the Utwig was no longer hampered by constant reminders of the primitive urge. +Over many generations mask etiquette was refined to a rock-solid foundation of our society. +Sure, the Morality Riots were expensive, both in lives and infrastructure +but the result was better mask regulation; specification from your basic Mask of Gruelling but Neccessary Activity +to the most highly decorated Countenance of Stellar Representation. These were clearly defined. +Recognizing the importance of flexibility, clear-cut and efficient procedures for revision and redesign +dealt with the few anomalies. From that moment when we covered the source of our intellectual oppression +we knew that it was a grand purpose that defined our destiny. +Are you still listening?! +Our entire development as a sentient species was coordinated to coincide with the appearance of a remarkable device +the Ultron! +We were oblivious to its tragic implication. + +#(what_about_you_2) +Yow! Absolutely fascinating. But what exactly do you mean by tragic? + +#(ABOUT_US_2) utwig-032.ogg +In order for you to truly understand the situation, you need to know more about the Ultron +and its unique capabilities. +You see, when the Druuge discovered the Ultron they knew that it was ours. +The Druuge were compelled by intrinsic universal direction to take it to where it has always belonged. +They brought it to us. +Oh, the Ultron! +It assured total and complete meaning of life for All -- the Universal! +With the Ultron in hand I could sense not only your motivations and desires, but your purpose. +I could act upon these things in ways that would most likely seem mysterious if not, well, daft. +Years later, you would herald our participation in your development as the turning point for your species. +The Druuge were only one of the few to benefit in this way. +Even now, they are puzzled by the way we rewarded them for the delivery of the Ultron to its correct place. +In twenty-four years, two months and three days they will all dance the dance of Jubilation. +Indeed, the Ultron has allowed us to fundamentally change the Druuge forever! +The Supox too received many benefits from our use of the Ultron. +They can testify to its power! + +#(what_about_you_3) +Hmm, sounds like things were going pretty well. So what happened? + +#(ABOUT_US_3) utwig-033.ogg +Yes, things were perfect. What happened is, well, I... it is difficult to talk about. +But I saw it happen. I witnessed the Chinz-Rahl celebration. +I felt the Ultron fill the empty place that I did not know was there. +I saw the Grand Proctor pass it to +well, they say that the Chief Groo did not know that it was so heavy and slippery. +Perhaps it was a combination of factors. +Some who have reviewed the records claim it was actually a conspiracy! +The commission investigation officially stated that the Ultron was rendered inoperative by the fall to the ground, +yet many feel that the whole story has not yet been told! +As it struck the ground, I saw its glow fade, and then the painful void incapacitated all. +All Utwig immediately donned the mask of Ultimate Embarrassment and Shame with a vow to wear it forever! +Bonfires all over Fahz consumed all but this mask; no other mask was spared! +The Visage of Ceremonial Orations in all of its contexts and revisions, +as I'm sure you understand, +all of the courting masks from the clever and intriguing Veil of Flirtatious Prancing +to the infamous Lewd Monacle... all consumed by the hungry flames. +Even the most fundamental fixtures were committed to this irreversible fate. +The Mask of Natural Bodily Excretions once hung in every lavatory! +Most of the public facilities have removed the disposable mask dispensers +but every once in a while I still see such a repository... always empty. +*Sigh*. At that time, many suggested that we use the Precursor relic as a form of self punishment. +The proposal was that we collectively go to the second moon of the sixth planet of Zeta Hyades +(at coordinates 850.3, 937.2) +and use the ancient planeteering device to end our existence. +After much discussion, we decided that we deserved to suffer. +We can use the Bomb if we ever decide the time is right +in the meantime, we atone for our grievous mistake with our collective misery. +I suddenly sink into a chasm of depression. I must go. + +#(what_about_urquan_1) +Do you know anything about the enslaving Ur-Quan? + +#(ABOUT_URQUAN_1) utwig-034.ogg +We know nothing of this species that you mention. +However, while we are on the subject of evil and powerful species +we have encountered a particularly gruesome race that seemed to come from the direction of Arcturus. +When we hailed them, they responded with mighty weapons that sent our delegation to their deaths +lucky fools. +The alien's dark crusty battleships are capable of guiding spinning mines into almost any location +and should an enemy get too close, a fiery corona emerges to inflict fearsome damage. +In our skirmishes with the race, who called themselves the Kohr-Ah +we found that by using our own shielding capability we could sweep through the mines, absorb the corona +and then get close enough to the dark ships to give a lick of our own. +In truth, however, they are very powerful and ruthless. +When the Kohr-Ah started to press toward our homeworld +we thought that our deserved punishment was being administered. +But then, a mystery? They suddenly became disinterested and veered away. Bah! Confounding frustration! +With the Ultron I could speak knowledgeably on this subject! +To have this quality torn from our grasp emphasizes how meaningless our existence really is. +This lack of meaning is what drives my species to the serious contemplation of a quick end! + +#(what_about_urquan_2) +Yes, that is really a pity. So what more do you know about the Kohr-Ah? + +#(ABOUT_URQUAN_2) utwig-035.ogg +Aagghh! Your query once again painfully reminds me of the Ultron and what it was for the Universe! +I could tell you all and correct ALL that is wrong in the Universe! +All I can tell you is that the Kohr-Ah live to kill. +Their stated purpose is to seek out new life and new civilizations +and then annihilate them. +We seemed to qualify as such and that is why it is puzzling that after pursuing us with some tenacity +they suddenly turned away and headed toward Crateris. +Aangh! All this speculation would be unnecessary if only we had saved the Ultron! +It would not have taken much; a diving catch, a thrown pillow +even a fuzzy wumpus would have broken the fall satisfactorily! +Indeed, a panel convened to analyze the possibilities +concluded there were at least 623 ways that the Ultron could have been saved +if we had been prepared!
