+#(SORRY_ABOUT_THAT)	spath000.ogg
+Attention big, mean, hostile alien vessel hovering overhead in an obvious attack posture:
+This is Spathi Captain Fwiffo.
+I know you are going to torture me, so let's just get this over with right now.
+The coordinates of my homeworld, Spathiwa, are 241.6, 368.7
+and the ultra-secret Spathi Cypher, which is known only by me and several billion other Spathi
+is `Huffi-Muffi-Guffi'.
+Sorry about that little mistake with your landing vehicle!
+I was so startled when it approached my vessel in a threatening manner that
+er
+my automated defense systems fired on it when it got too close.
+I hope nobody got hurt!
+
+#(identify)
+Attention alien vessel: Identify yourself or be destroyed!
+
+#(I_FWIFFO)	spath001.ogg
+Of course, of course!
+As I said, I am Captain Fwiffo of the Spathi voidship StarRunner.
+Our sensors have tracked your entry into this system
+which you are no doubt here to conquer
+and while you are certainly welcome to do so we would be greatly appreciative
+if you would please just go away and forget this star system ever existed.
+If you don't go, it will greatly complicate our master-slave relationship with the Ur-Quan
+who stationed us here to watch over the Earthlings.
+
+#(hi_there)
+Hi there friend! We come in peace and mean you no harm.
+
+#(ARE_YOU_SURE)	spath002.ogg
+Are you sure?
+Because your statement is often just a more polite way of saying
+`Attention alien vessel: Identify yourself or be destroyed.'
+In any event, I am Spathi Captain Fwiffo of the voidship StarRunner
+placed here in this planetary system as part of the powerful Earthguard star force
+which our masters the Ur-Quan established here to make sure the Earthlings don't do anything tricky.
+
+#(dont_kill)
+Don't kill us!
+
+#(we_fight_1)
+You attacked our lander -- killed our crew! Prepare to die.
+
+#(we_fight_2)
+Enough of your slimy yammering. We fight!
+
+#(OK_WONT)	spath003.ogg
+Uh, okay... sure, we won't!
+Just remember though -- this offer may be revoked at any time.
+
+#(do_cultural)
+We suggest you immediately perform whatever cultural practices are customary to your species preceding death.
+
+#(WEZZY_WEZZAH)	spath004.ogg
+Certainly, most gracious destroyer, as is well known, before departing this mortal helix
+all Spathi must complete the short, poignant ritual of Wezzy-Wezzah to be assured of a secure afterlife
+and by allowing us to fulfill this requirement, you too shall be granted immortality in our beautiful afterworld
+which is absolutely guaranteed to be free of similarly immortal monsters who would otherwise eat the both of us.
+
+#(die_slugboy)
+Die slugboy!
+
+#(begin_ritual)
+You may begin your ritual, and if I might make a small suggestion: be done in less than 2 minutes.
+
+#(MUST_DO_RITUAL_AT_HOME)	spath005.ogg
+Grief and woe -- certainly a destroyer of innocents as well-travelled as yourself
+must know that the formalities of Wezzy-Wezzah are invalid unless
+performed on the large moon orbiting our homeworld, Spathiwa
+which is only 143 light years distant, and, if I remember correctly,
+is especially beautiful this time of year.
+Shall we go now there?
+
+#(you_wont_die_yet)
+Because I am compassionate, you will not die until you have exhausted your usefulness.
+
+#(ETERNAL_GRATITUDE)	spath006.ogg
+My eternal gratitude is yours, oh devastator of helpless beings.
+It's times like these that I am forced to feel almost, though not quite, sorry
+that the Ur-Quan so thoroughly defeated and humiliated your species.
+
+#(we_fight)
+We fight!
+
+#(pay_for_crimes)
+Now you must pay for the crimes of your craven masters, the evil Ur-Quan.
+
+#(CLUTCH_MAVEN)	spath007.ogg
+In this difficult situation I am reminded of what my clutch maven once said to me before my first molting.
+`Sometimes the enemy is so swift and the path so treacherous that you can run no further.
+It is then that you must turn and resolve to fight
+and in all likelihood die horribly
+but you never know when you are going to get lucky, so go for it!'
+
+#(you_may_live)
+I find myself moved by your deep commitment to your rituals and ancestral ways. You may live.
+
+#(HONEST_AND_FRIENDLY)	spath008.ogg
+That settles it, for now I am certain that you are an honest and friendly being
+who is forced entirely through unfortunate circumstance - the unreasonable hostility of the Universe
+to travel the galaxy in a ship which, according to my sensors
+is best suited to conducting planetary-scale genocide.
+
+#(what_are_coordinates)
+We'd be delighted to accompany you to your homeworld. What are its HyperSpace coordinates?
+
+#(COORDINATES_ARE)	spath009.ogg
+My most wonderful planet Spathiwa circles a safe distance from the orange giant star Yuffo
+which is at HyperSpace coordinates
+hey -- wait a minute!
+Is this some kind of Homosap trick to get the location of my homeworld
+so that you can visit it with devastation?!
+
+#(tell_me_coordinates)
+Just tell me the coordinates, alien dog-slime!
+
+#(FAKE_COORDINATES)	spath010.ogg
+Hmmm... I see
+Very well then, your threats have convinced me to reveal this secret.
+Spathiwa is the 1st planet out from the star at HyperSpace (570.4, 979.5)
+
+#(TOO_SCARY)	spath011.ogg
+You've got so many ships in your fleet, that instead of joining you
+I think I'll just run away.
+
+#(youve_got_me_all_wrong)
+No, no, no! You've got me all wrong. I promise I'll be nice.
+
+#(SORRY_NO_COORDS)	spath012.ogg
+Er... I just don't know.
+I want to believe you, I really do, but the risk to my people is just too great.
+Anyway I think I just forgot the coordinates -- let me see if I can remember them
+nope!
+I'm afraid they're gone forever, so torturing me would just be a waste of your time.
+
+#(what_doing_on_pluto_1)
+What are you doing here on Pluto?
+
+#(ABOUT_20_YEARS_AGO)	spath013.ogg
+About 20 years ago, this region of space was dominated by a loose confederation known as the Alliance of Free Stars,
+which was composed of the aliens native to these parts who didn't want to be enslaved.
+They made a valiant effort against the superior Ur-Quan forces
+and it even looked like they might miraculously defeat the combined Ur-Quan armada
+right up to the point at which the Ur-Quan totally defeated - indeed, annihilated them.
+
+#(what_doing_on_pluto_2)
+So, what ARE you doing here on Pluto?
+
+#(WHEN_URQUAN_ARRIVED)	spath014.ogg
+When the Ur-Quan armada entered this system to subjugate formally the Earthlings,
+the Ur-Quan presented the humans with the standard slave options:
+join the Hierarchy as combat thralls, and retain some autonomy, including the right to travel through space
+or become a 'fallow' species and return to pre-atomic savagery on the surface of their homeworld
+encased for all time beneath an impenetrable force shield.
+The Humans chose the latter option, and so were swiftly imprisoned on the surface of Earth
+but the Ur-Quan didn't trust them to obey the restrictions...so
+they chose a small group of Hierarchy combat starships from the Ilwrath and Spathi fleets
+to create the so-called Earthguard, and stationed them at a base on Earth's moon.
+
+#(where_are_urquan)
+Where are the Ur-Quan now?
+
+#(URQUAN_LEFT)	spath015.ogg
+Our masters don't really keep us very well informed about their goings on
+so all that we know is that immediately after the subjugation of the last Alliance race
+the Yehat, I think
+the Ur-Quan gathered their dreadnoughts and departed towards the edge of the galaxy
+commanding us to obey the slave laws or face their wrath when they returned.
+
+#(what_about_other_races)
+Do you know anything about other alien races?
+
+#(ABOUT_OTHER_RACES)	spath016.ogg
+We know only bits and pieces of what happened to each race; for instance,
+when defeated, the Yehat joined the Hierarchy as combat thralls,
+while the Syreen chose to be slave shielded on a planet in the BugSquirt star system.
+No, that's not right -- I forget it's name, anyway where was I?
+Oh yes, the Shofixti! They were utterly wiped out in a gigantic 'blaze of glory'.
+
+#(what_doing_on_pluto_3)
+TELL ME what you are doing on Pluto, NOW!
+
+#(what_about_yourself)
+What about yourself, Fwiffo?
+
+#(ABOUT_MYSELF)	spath017.ogg
+Me? You mean me, personally? How nice of you to ask!
+I was born a poor, green encrustling, the youngest child of a family of 18,487.
+My male parent had to work hard to support us, very hard
+but each of my brothers and sisters and I tried to help out to make ends meet.
+The female parent was kind and sweet to all of us.
+Why, she once even called me by NAME; she said
+`Fwiffo! Fwiffo darling! Would you please answer the door? I think someone's there.'
+What a treat! A golden memory.
+I swiftly matured into a fine example of my species, with my parents' assistance, achieved independence.
+Specifically, they pried me from the doorjamb, and rolled me into the street.
+Thus prepared, I set out to make my fortune.
+I had great dreams in those days, yes, great dreams!
+I knew that someday I would be vastly rich, wealthy enough to afford a large, well-fortified mansion.
+Surrounding my mansion would be vast tracts of land, through which I could slide at any time I wished!
+Of course, one can never be too sure that there aren't monsters hiding just behind the next bush
+so I would plant trees to climb at regular, easy to reach intervals.
+And being a Spathi of the World, I would know that some monsters climb trees, though often not well
+so I would have my servants place in each tree a basket of perfect stones
+not too heavy, not too light -- just the right size for throwing at monsters.
+I was thinking about what color the stones would be painted (aqua, mauve or magenta)
+when a vegetable cart came careening down the street outside my house, and knocked me unconscious.
+When I awoke, I was aboard the voidship StarRunner, headed for Earth.
+Apparently I had been out of my head for quite some time after the accident
+and with the assistance of some kind strangers
+had been relieved of my funds and convinced to join the navy
+where I have been unpleasantly employed for the last 25 years.
+
+#(STATIONED_ON_EARTH_MOON)	spath018.ogg
+Originally, we were stationed on Earth's moon, which made us Spathi a bit uneasy
+because with each passing day we grew more and more worried about the sneaky Earthlings making a surprise attack
+though the Ilwrath kept telling us that was impossible
+since the Earthlings had no ships or weapons whatsoever.
+That made us feel a bit better, but when the Ilwrath left, again we grew fearful
+and decided to make a strategic redeployment to Mars.
+Later on we decided it would be prudent to relocate to Jupiter's moon, Ganymede
+then later Saturn's moon, Titan
+and finally here to Pluto.
+
+#(what_blaze_of_glory)
+What do you mean, `blaze of glory'? What happened to the Shofixti?
+
+#(BLAZE_IS)	spath019.ogg
+The Shofixti were half feral, as you know, having been uplifted by the Yehat
+just a few decades before the start of the war.
+Given their habit of detonating those suicidal, so-called 'Glory Devices' in combat
+it came as no particular surprise to me when, upon the arrival of the Ur-Quan primary task force at their homeworld
+the Shofixti caused their sun to explode in a colossal supernova
+destroying the entire planetary system, and not incidentally dozens of Ur-Quan Dreadnoughts!
+(Snork-snork-snork!)
+
+#(what_about_moonbase)
+What is happening at the base on Luna then?
+
+#(SET_UP_BASE)	spath020.ogg
+We decided that if the Earthlings figured out we had abandoned the base on Luna
+they would be more likely to try something sneaky.
+So we rigged up some old service androids and ordered them to drive around on the lunar surface in bulldozers,
+endlessly pushing around the same piles of dirt.
+In addition, we connected the base's local radio transmitter to an audio Melnorme FunRom
+called `Winky's Happy Night', hoping that they would think we were still there.
+
+#(what_about_ilwrath)
+What happened to the Ilwrath stationed in this system?
+
+#(ABOUT_ILWRATH)	spath021.ogg
+The Ilwrath contingent were supposed to be the toughest ridge-crest, er
+the most rigid flipper, no
+ah yes - the BACKBONE of the Earthguard force; but they departed the system en masse
+not long after the last Ur-Quan Dreadnought vanished from this region of space.
+They claimed to have received a direct order from their Gods of Evil and Darkness,
+who had grown dissatisfied with the Ilwraths' passivity
+and wanted them to kill or at least torture someone soon.
+Personally, I believe they just got bored and went off to have some fun.
+
+#(what_about_other_spathi)
+What happened to the other Spathi ships?
+
+#(really_thousands)
+Hundreds? Come on.
+
+#(SPATHI_ARE)	spath022.ogg
+Over the past years, it became necessary to redeploy strategically some of our Earthguard forces
+to our homeworld in case of a sudden surprise attack by a vicious, unrelenting alien race which we Spathi call
+The Ultimate Evil!
+
+#(what_enemy)
+Who or what is this `Ultimate Evil'?
+
+#(ENEMY_IS)	spath023.ogg
+As yet, the Ultimate Evil remains largely unmanifest, and its powers and exact intentions are still a bit obscure
+since it lurks just outside the range of even the most sensitive, long-range detectors
+which we feel gives conclusive evidence as to The Ultimate Evil's nefarious intent.
+
+#(when_ilwrath)
+When do you expect the Ilwrath to return?
+
+#(THEN_ILWRATH)	spath024.ogg
+Well, when they were pushing up into HyperSpace 18 years ago, we asked them that very question
+and I think they said something to the effect of
+`Real Soon'.
+
+#(why_you_here)
+Why are you still here, Captain Fwiffo?
+
+#(DREW_SHORT_STRAW)	spath025.ogg
+Since it was our most powerful and unforgiving masters, the Ur-Quan, who stationed us here
+we knew it would be grossly stupid to disobey them completely
+but we decided that it would be okay to send just one ship home.
+We used one of our most ancient and solemn rituals, Puun-Taffy, to pick the lucky ship.
+Then... some months later, we decided that it wouldn't REALLY hurt if we sent one more ship home
+and then later we sent another, and then another...well, you get the idea.
+Alas, as fate would have it, when the final ritual was performed
+I, Fwiffo, was left here alone, for as even the most immature encrustling knows
+there must always be one Spathi who picks the short Ta Puun stick.
+
+#(how_many_crew)
+How many crew do you have aboard?
+
+#(JUST_ME)	spath026.ogg
+I am undone! You are far too clever for a poor Spathi like me
+and now I must submit to your superior, alien intellect.
+I guess I am not revealing any truly important secrets if I tell you
+that each of my species' Eluder-class Voidships typically holds 30 Spathi crewmen
+though at present my vessel, the StarRunner, is not up to full complement
+due to the needs of my homeworld in their resistance against the Ultimate Evil
+and in fact my vessel is somewhat understaffed right now
+seeing as how I am the only Spathi on board, which is a bit frightening as I am sure you can understand.
+
+#(THOUSANDS)	spath027.ogg
+Dozens -- that is to say, scores and perhaps even hundreds of my brethren stride through the corridors
+of this specially modified, super-efficient, mass-destruction-oriented starship
+which could lay siege to an entire planetary system should we choose to do so
+which, fortunately for you, we have decided not to do, today.
+
+#(full_of_monsters)
+The galaxy teems with threatening monsters. Are you happy here -- alone and vulnerable?
+
+#(HOW_TRUE)	spath028.ogg
+How true, Captain, how true!
+In truth, just between us, during the past seven years, I have been quite ill at ease
+and yet now I find myself enjoying your company, this witty dialog
+and the presence of your huge, powerful, death-dealing starship which being my friend
+you would certainly feel compelled to use in order to save me from any hostile lifeforms
+who threatened me with death.
+
+#(join_us)
+I'm sure you'd feel a lot safer if you were with us. Come on, Fwiffo, join our fleet!
+
+#(WILL_JOIN)	spath029.ogg
+Happy days and jubilation!
+I discard all prejudice and hesitations and accept and celebrate your offer of protection
+and your undying commitment to my well-being!
+I must wax melancholy for just a moment though
+and make sure you understand that any other Spathi ships we meet at large in the galaxy
+are not going to be quite so responsive to your friendly gestures as myself
+since they bear more heavily the yoke of Ur-Quan enslavement
+and are also apt to talk themselves out of allying with a totally unknown alien
+which I, having been left here alone, cannot do.
+Welcome me aboard, captain!
+
+#(WONT_JOIN_1)	spath030.ogg
+Well... I really want to
+but I am just not sure that under the present circumstances
+joining you in your exciting and also dangerous space-adventures would be the best course of action right now
+because the Ur-Quan could return at any minute and the punishment they would bestow on me for such treason
+would make any other horrible death seem like big fun by comparison.
+Thanks for the offer, though.
+
+#(give_ship_or_die)
+Give us your ship or you will be destroyed!
+
+#(WONT_JOIN_2)	spath031.ogg
+You build a strong case, Captain.
+Here I am, alone and undefended on the surface of a hostile alien world.
+Above me you hover in orbit, encrusted with beam guns, missile launchers and other, more dreadful weapons.
+So I think to myself: Fwiffo, is it prudent to remain here, as vulnerable as a moltling on a skillet?
+`NO', I answer myself, `JOIN THE HUMAN - HE IS KIND AND GOOD!'
+But then a wicked voice whispers:
+`beware... the human is tricking you! If you join him, you will die alone, in the cold of space.'
+And for reasons beyond my understanding, Captain, this voice overwhelms the other
+and so I must remain here...largely against my will.
+
+#(WONT_JOIN_3)	spath032.ogg
+Twice before you have asked this question, Captain. Will the third time be the charm?
+Alas, I fear not.
+
+#(GEE_THANKS)	spath033.ogg
+Gee, thanks.
+
+#(changed_mind)
+I've changed my mind. We'll attack you.
+
+#(youre_forgiven)
+We understand that sometimes these tragic misunderstandings happen. We grieve, but are not bitter.
+
+#(THANKS_FOR_FORGIVENESS)	spath034.ogg
+Whew, thanks! For a minute there, I thought you were going to kill me!
+
+#(HATE_YOU_FOREVER_SPACE)	spath035.ogg
+I fear to face you in combat, but I know if I do not, you will just grow stronger with each passing week.
+Therfore I must face you now.
+I set the thrusters to maximum, close my eye, and begin pressing the fire stud wildly.
+
+#(INIT_ANGRY_HELLO_SPACE)	spath036.ogg
+You are mean, cruel and deceitful. I suspect you are an Ilwrath in ape's clothing.
+What do you want?
+
+#(SUBSEQUENT_ANGRY_HELLO_SPACE)	spath037.ogg
+Ah, Mister Nasty is back. I wonder what he wants today? Peace, Happiness, Joy for all?
+No, I fear, death and unmitigated destruction is his traditional fare.
+Am I correct?
+
+#(INIT_NEUTRAL_HELLO_SPACE)	spath038.ogg
+Surprise and Terror!
+I am greeted by the smooth and hostile face of our old enemy, the Hootmans
+no... the Huge-glands, no, I remember, the Hunams!

+Hello, Hunam, what would you like to threaten me about today?

+Hello friend Hunam! How nice to see you again. Kill anyone today?
+
+#(SUBSEQUENT_FRIENDLY_HELLO_SPACE)	spath041.ogg

+What! The viewscreen? What are you...oh.
+Hello Friend Hunam! How are you? We are just fine, real swell.
+No problems at all! Just fine. No problems at all!
+
+#(INIT_ALLIED_HELLO_SPACE)	spath042.ogg
+Hello Captain Ally Hunam! We are here in this place at this time
+just like you -- how wonderful.
+
+#(SUBSEQUENT_ALLIED_HELLO_SPACE)	spath043.ogg
+Ah, Hunam! I was just wondering... is Tuffa-Yuf still alive?
+Have you seen him, is he well?
+He was sent to your Earth Starbase a while ago
+to captain an Eluder vessel as part of our mutual assistance pact.
+Rest assured, he will be an excellent addition to your elite force.
+Those weeks of intense training always result in an officer of the highest caliber.
+If you see him, please let him know
+that I still consider his debt valid, and expect prompt payment.
+Thank you.
+
+#(give_info_space)
+Spathi - though we are not on the best of terms, would you please give me some information?
+
+#(HERES_SOME_INFO)	spath044.ogg
+Gladly, and here it is - now listen carefully for I will only say it once.
+Do not ask favors of people you routinely ambush and murder.
+
+#(we_sorry_space)
+Hey, look. We've made mistakes, I admit it! But we'll just be friends, hmmm?
+
+#(APOLOGIZE_AT_HOMEWORLD)	spath045.ogg
+My soul is warmed by your sincere and heartfelt words.
+It is decided -- we shall be friends forever.
+However, I soon must go about my duties, and sadly we may never see each other again.
+I will remember you forever, Captain.
+And as your new friend, I can confide that should you decide to make a more general plea to the Spathi
+say for your past deeds of thuggery
+you would be well advised to seek the High Ruling Council at Spathiwa.
+Goodbye...friend.
+
+#(we_fight_again_space)
+This battle stuff is fun! Let's do some more of it!
+
+#(OK_FIGHT_AGAIN_SPACE)	spath046.ogg
+Aghk! You are twisted and perverse! You deserve to die.
+
+#(bye_angry_space)
+Don't go away mad, Spathi. Just go away.
+
+#(GOODBYE_ANGRY_SPACE)	spath047.ogg
+I would like to suggest a new plan for you, Hunam:
+depart this region of space, and never return.
+
+#(look_weird)
+Man! You look weird -- all those claws and your gooey eyeball. Yuck!
+
+#(YOU_LOOK_WEIRD)	spath048.ogg
+Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
+
+#(no_look_really_weird)
+No, it's not. You are plain, dog ugly.
+
+#(NO_YOU_LOOK_REALLY_WEIRD)	spath049.ogg
+Oh yeah? Oh YEAH!?
+Well...
+You are too.
+
+#(come_in_peace)
+We are on a peaceful mission through the Cosmos.
+
+#(AGAINST_NATURE)	spath050.ogg
+Two aspects of your last statement defy the course of nature as I know it.
+First
+`Peace' as you call it, is an illusion.
+If you have `Peace', you simply haven't yet seen the thing that's trying to kill you.
+Second
+Peaceful missions through the Cosmos rarely require weapons large enough to punch holes through a small moon.
+
+#(prepare_to_die)
+Are you prepared to die today, Spathi?
+
+#(ALWAYS_PREPARED)	spath051.ogg
+We Spathi are always prepared to die, we know just what to do.
+It goes something like this
+AIEEEE! No! Please be merciful! Not my claw! Please, no! I beg of you! The Pain! NO!
+
+#(since_friendly_give_stuff)
+Since we are now friends, it is customary for you to give us things.

+#(GIVE_ADVICE)	spath052.ogg
+Certainly, perhaps beginning with some advice.
+Don't presume we are stupid.
+
+#(whats_up_space_1)
+Friend Spathi, what important facts can you relate?
+
+#(GENERAL_INFO_SPACE_1)	spath053.ogg
+I guess the only event of importance I know about concerns the low and stupid Umgah
+whose pranks we must suffer on a regular basis.
+At least we have removed one source of their annoying jokes -- an unusually strong HyperWave 'Caster
+which they used on several occasions to impersonate such frightening characters as
+the Grand Master Planet Eaters
+Jud the Ineffable Vug
+and Killmaster 18.
+Needless to say, we did not fall for any of their high jinks.
+In fact, we succeeded in taking from the Umgah their precious 'Caster,
+thus ending their attempts at sick levity.
+
+#(bye_friendly_space)
+Goodbye, Spathi, I hope you remain well.
+
+#(GOODBYE_FRIENDLY_SPACE)	spath054.ogg
+Goodbye, Hunam, I hope you aren't eaten by monsters.
+
+#(looking_for_a_few_good_squids)
+Let me be frank. We seek allies.
+
+#(URQUAN_SLAVES)	spath055.ogg
+In case you have not forgotten, we are bonded to the Ur-Quan as slaves.
+The punishment for the plan you propose can be described as `Death'.
+
+#(why_slaves)
+That brings up a good point. If you are such cowards, why do you fight for the Ur-Quan?
+
+#(UMGAH_TRICK)	spath056.ogg
+This is a sad tale, so do not even try to contain your tears.
+After the Ur-Quan demolished the Ilwrath, they turned the force of their Armada against us Spathi.
+The term `rapidly subjugated' would best describe what happened next.
+When the Ur-Quan arrived at Spathiwa, there was a great ceremony.
+Part of that ceremony involved blasting portions of our planet's surface into radioactive dust
+and this part we did not enjoy.
+But the worst was yet to come.
+Our leaders were called into the command chamber of Ur-Quan Lord 1's dreadnought
+where they were read a long and complicated document explaining the choices given new slaves.
+When our leaders heard the term `forever encased' and `impenetrable shield'
+they grew over-excited, I'm afraid, and made a fatal error.
+The decision was to be transmitted to the Ur-Quan via one of two rods, one colored black, the other white.
+Our leader handed the white rod to one of the Ur-Quan's servants, signifying `Fallow Slavery',
+but the servant somehow exchanged rods and handed the Ur-Quan Lord a black rod
+indicating our desire to become fighting slaves!
+By the time we learned of the switch, it was too late -- the Ur-Quan would not permit a change in status.
+Following that most tragic day, we were forced to assume the role of an Ur-Quan star-thug.
+We tried to avoid combat, but the Ur-Quan gave us three warnings, each more strident than the last.
+When we learned that there would be no fourth warning, simply annihilation
+we attended to our new role with improved vigor.
+Oh, and perhaps you have already guessed -- the Ur-Quan's servant who made the switch
+was an Umgah.
+
+#(tell_us_about_you)
+What can you tell us of your species?
+
+#(ABOUT_US)	spath057.ogg
+We can best be described as `Meta-Mollusks'
+possessing the best qualities of both the clam and the Dravatz, which is not native to your world.
+We are intelligent and clever, though you would never call us cunning.
+Each day when we awaken we call forth the traditional Spathi prayer
+`Oh God...Please don't let me die today! Tomorrow would be so much better!'
+
+#(what_you_really_want)
+But what do you really want out of this great mystery called `Life'?
+
+#(WANT_THIS)	spath058.ogg
+I want to live forever, with no pain whatsoever, owning vast personal property plus a company of nubiles.
+If this is in your power to give, I beg of you to do so.
+
+#(how_about_alliance)
+Under the circumstances, I think it would be best if you allied with Earth immediately.
+
+#(SURE)	spath059.ogg
+Sure, consider it done. Allies to the bitter end.
+NOT!
+
+#(part_in_peace)
+We leave as we came, in peace.
+
+#(KEEP_IT_SECRET)	spath060.ogg
+Look, can we keep this as a secret between the two of us?
+It's really rather embarrassing.
+
+#(heard_youre_cowards)
+We have heard that you are a race of cowards. Is this true?
+
+#(DARN_TOOTIN)	spath061.ogg
+Yes, absolutely, and with no qualifications.
+This system has kept us alive for millenia, and we see no reason to change it now.
+
+#(wanna_fight)
+Wanna fight?
+
+#(YES_WE_DO)	spath062.ogg
+Er... Yeah, we do.
+
+#(so_lets_fight)
+So let us fight.
+
+#(OK_LETS_FIGHT)	spath063.ogg
+Okay, let's fight. Here we go. We're rarin' to fight.
+
+#(so_lets_fight_already)
+So let's fight, already!
+
+#(DONT_REALLY_WANT_TO_FIGHT)	spath064.ogg
+Oh! Um... we changed our minds. We don't want to. Sorry.
+(Pwappy, you idiot! I told you that wouldn't work!)
+
+#(attack_you_now)
+Evil squid -- Prepare to Die!
+
+#(YIPES)	spath065.ogg
+I can't believe this!
+Not only is the Hunam alien unreasonably hostile but he doesn't even know his biological analogs!
+We are much more closely related to Earth clams and
+what was that, Weapons Officer? His ship approaches with shields up and weapons armed...
+Yipes!
+
+#(whats_up_space_2)
+Hi folks, what's new?
+
+#(GENERAL_INFO_SPACE_2)	spath066.ogg
+Very little, I'm afraid. We've just been watching the stars.
+You know, actually there was something that happened
+last month on the 17th; we saw a new star appear between the Circini and Chandrasekhar star clusters.
+We watched it and watched it -- for three days, we just watched it
+Then it went away, vanished, just like that.
+I hope it comes back.
+
+#(give_us_info_from_space)
+Allies, grant us the boon of your wisdom.
+
+#(GET_INFO_FROM_SPATHIWA)	spath067.ogg
+Stuck as we are, here out in deep space, we learn little of interest.
+I suggest you consult the more interesting folk at Spathiwa.
+
+#(give_us_resources_space)
+Please share your mineral wealth with us, as allies.
+
+#(GET_RESOURCES_FROM_SPATHIWA)	spath068.ogg
+As you wish. Our waste recycling unit is at your disposal.
+There you will find quantities of methane, sulfurous gas, and some interesting organic compounds.
+Feel free, take all you want.
+
+#(what_do_for_fun)
+What do you guys do for fun out here in deep space?
+
+#(DO_THIS_FOR_FUN)	spath069.ogg
+We used to be bored, but then we bought this cool entertainment product.
+It simulated a grand adventure through a thousand parsecs of hostile space
+where we met interesting aliens, uncovered the secrets of a long-lost superior race
+and eventually, to save our world from destruction, we had to face the dread...
+never mind, I can tell you aren't really interested.
+
+#(bye_ally_space)
+Goodbye, Friend Spathi. I hope your journey is a safe one.
+
+#(GOODBYE_ALLY_SPACE)	spath070.ogg
+Same to you.
+
+#(OK_WE_FIGHT_AT_PLUTO)	spath071.ogg
+My ichors pulse through my body with unusual ferocity!
+Your arrogance has whipped me into a violent frenzy
+and I am compelled to engage you in a preemptive-defensive action.
+Now you shall never learn my important secrets
+such as the location of the Orange Giant star around which my home planet orbits
+oops -- dang! -- you made me give that away!
+Captain, if you somehow survive my attack, I have one sincere hope
+that you may soon be devoured slowly by an ugly, flat-toothed herbivore!
