Welcome back.
I've awakened you from stasis and
teleported you down to a planet where I
need some work done. You are on Lh'owon,
the homeworld of the S'pht.
I'm sure you're wondering why you were in
stasis, what happened to the Marathon and
Tau Ceti, and most of all where your rocket
launcher and fusion gun are. There'll be
plenty of time for explanations later.
I need to gain access to the Pfhor computer
network on this planet. Your mission is to
place two uplink chips at different
locations in this complex.
Be careful I'm sure you've already
recognized some of our old friends.
On the map at left I've marked two places
for you to install uplink chips. When you
arrive at each of the computer stations I
will transport a chip to you.
Your suit has been modified to recharge at
Pfhor power stations and to use Pfhor
uplink terminals to upload yourself into a
pattern buffer on my ship. I have also
marked the locations on the map.
You should encounter little organized
resistance because the Pfhor are
preoccupied.
I've been introducing them to the magic of
orbital bombardment.

DURANDAL_1707 <CMND PRAMA &49c2>
Seventeen years have passed since the human
colony on Tau Ceti was attacked and you
helped me capture the Pfhor scoutship. The
S'pht which we freed during that battle
joined me, and together we have been
searching the galactic core for their
homeworld, Lh'owon.
We finally found Lh'owon sixteen hours ago
and are searching for something, a weapon
or piece of knowledge to use to stop the
Pfhor's conquest of the galaxy.
Over a thousand years ago, Lh'owon was all
but destroyed during the war in which the
Pfhor enslaved the S'pht. It is fitting
that we should return here to look for a
tool to use against them.
