"The relics that I gathered, you say... Мм."

"Funny. They seem to be drawing far-reaching conclusions from our journey together. Not that they're wrong, but I find this eagerness to poke their noses into everything... excessive. CS already warned me about them. And I've seen and heard a lot from my brother. So far, I see no reason to deny their curiosity, and yet it still brings back unpleasant associations. It's like they're examining me under a microscope. Looking for flaws... Or things to exploit."

"So, yes, they're right. You need to know something. During our visit to the Everlasting Ebb, I discovered a container near the dead planet. Inside this container is a miniature anomaly. We needed to focus on other things then—your faulty engines, for example, which I'll remind you of later. As a result, no one but me and Ashlander, my trusted chief engineer, knows about this thing. Now you know, too."

"Strider's difficulty getting to Tennstedt... Is convenient. We still need to talk privately. Before we receive this guest."

"Love you."
