I'd say that's mission accomplished as far as I'm concerned. Leave these lovely ladies to the care of our speech oriented colleagues so that they can receive the proper care and/or sign the necessary liability waivers and/or have their memories wiped while I report to our simian overlords. Unless they want me to stick around, in which case I'll wait for them to be ready to leave so I can follow them.

Pathos made sure to give a thumbs up (or as close as he could manage as a spider) to Jon's ghost. It was nice of him to take care of Grongor's ghost. It would be unfortunate if he had some creepy nerd's ghost haunting him in search of revenge or something silly like that.

Though the mission was a success, Nik still couldn't help but feel disappointed in the outcome. The objective was to neutralize the robots and rescue the hostages with as minimal property damage as possible, but with the way things were going, this lab and the KNIGHTS would soon go the way of Grognor. When he made his plan he knew this would happen, but one can't help feeling that there could have been a better way...

By the time Nik arrived at the door he was panting. He passed by it during the rush to the throne room, but in the excitement of an upcoming battle he had forgotten it. Now that things have calmed down, he could better grasp of the significance of the words "AUDITOR ACCESS ONLY"

"HEY GUYS!!! I THINK I FOUND THE MEANS TO TAKE CONTROL OF THE BOTS! CAN SOMEONE COME OVER AND OPEN ANOTHER DOOR FOR ME!"

Examine the door controls. If there is no keycard slot or other kind of security feature, just open it up and examine the room. Otherwise wait for someone to come over who is better prepared to open it, preferably with a welding torch.

((If anyone’s wondering how I know about that door, I believe it was mentioned in Pathos’ action resolution on page 98. Alternatively, you can just type AUDITOR ACCESS ONLY in the search bar.))

"Awww, I wanted to kill somebody with this thing.  This mission has been so disapppointing, all I've gotten is a new cat!  Ugh."

Go explore the KNIGHTs' quarters.  Look for weapons and armor to loot, especially armor.  Preferably human usable armor.  Also look for ways to control the KNIGHTs, but that's not the priority.

If KNIGHTs are encountered, melt them.

"This was a boring mission, and of course I'll help break down the AUDITOR door."
Go to the AUDITOR ACCESS ONLY door and wait to see if it can be opened, if it can't be opened cut it open with my torch.

Since I probably can’t be much help with whatever is left to do, just chill out and wait for the team to decide on further actions.

"Welp, time to get to work."

Get down on my hands and knees and search the wreckage for shit to loot. Grab as many meaty gibbets, charred remains and literally shit-filled intestines that I can fill my grubby little hands with.

(1) You start forward with determination and certainty. You carry this determination with you right into the gaping crater that opens under your feet. You fall into a pit. The sounds of combat above dim, along with the light from the suns. In the quiet below, you hear some other noises instead.

[Achievement unlocked: Touched a woman, technically]

Escort Elen to some kind of place which provides legitimate medical attention. Or at least "good-enough" medical attention.
If it seems necessary, tell directions at the former hostages in a friendly and encouraging manner.

Down at the bottom of the ocean. Beneath tons of brine which would crush you down. Not into broken and splintered flesh, but into thin soup. Into just more of the sea water. Where things live that aren't so different from you, but you will never live to touch them and they will never live to touch you.

This group of security men, women, and spiders is a credit to their station. They carry the wounded out, the escort the hostages, they report to their superiors and such. All the things that get them money and acclaim and lack of being gutted by auditors.  This group is also now basically safe and away, ready for further work. We'll leave them alone for now and instead focus on the very interesting ideas.

[1v11]
Harold steps forwards and produces his cutting torch, He kneels down and gets to work, cutting from the bottom of the door. He cuts, oh, maybe a foot of metal before the door suddenly slides open, retracting into the ceiling with a metallic noise like a knife sliding over a whet stone. Beyond the doorway is nothing but darkness, shadow that the light of the room fails to penetrate. Then there is a sound- the hiss of sharp edges cutting air- and a glimmer of something half seen. Harold's body rocks backwards  and tumbles over.  Toots and Nik look down and only after a moment of confusion realize that Harold's head has been ripped clean from his shoulders. 

VIOLATION OF EMPLOYEE CODE LR-379-4: WILLFUL TAMPERING OR DESTRUCTION OF AUDITOR PROPERTY. IN ACCORDANCE WITH EMPLOYEE AGREEMENT, DISCIPLINARY MEASURES AUTHORIZED AND ONGOING.

The voice, all bass and metallic echo, rumbles out of the darkness like a techno thunderclap. And something begins to unfurl out into the room. Neither Toots or Nik can see it well; its mostly invisible, only glanced as distortion in the air. Like ice gliding through water, a shimmer, an area of open air with slightly different refractory properties than that around it, bent or bulging.

[5v15][4v10]

Something seems to scrape the wall, to gouge the metal on the floor and ceiling around them.  They have a moment to wonder whats happening, to step back in instinctual fear, before  they see their bodies flying about around them like  cubed meat confetti. Perhaps they are still alive when the barely seen thing picks their heads up off the ground and carries them into the shadows. Or perhaps they are mercifully dead and unrecoverable, unable to see what lies beyond the door. Whatever the case, Nik, Toots, and Harold disappear that day and not even a drop of blood or shred of skin is left to tell where they went.

"Awww, I wanted to kill somebody with this thing.  This mission has been so disapppointing, all I've gotten is a new cat!  Ugh."

Go explore the KNIGHTs' quarters.  Look for weapons and armor to loot, especially armor.  Preferably human usable armor.  Also look for ways to control the KNIGHTs, but that's not the priority.

[1][1][6v1][8v9]
Wilfred leaves the group and heads to the left, into the area loosely considered the KNIGHT quarters. He gets all of 15 or so feet in before one of the armor clad brutes runs into the room, apparently retreating from something deeper in. Wilfred is so startled by the appearance that he just sort of stands there are the KNIGHT rounds to face him. The KNIGHT whips a sword out in an uppercut slash, but the blade hisses straight past Wilfred's ear in a narrow miss. Wilfred returns fire with a shot from the hip and the spray of corrosive fluid arcs over the KNIGHT's shoulder and splatters a distant wall.

Another KNIGHT charges into the room a moment later, and judging by the stomping of feet there are more behind him.

"Welp, time to get to work."

Get down on my hands and knees and search the wreckage for shit to loot. Grab as many meaty gibbets, charred remains and literally shit-filled intestines that I can fill my grubby little hands with.

Charon dives onto the metal floor and after some scrambling returns to his feet, triumphantly holding a single bloody toenail.

Walk up to my good friends Harold, Toots, Nik and shove the toenail directly into their face. If they seems to be missing, dead, or a combination of the two, shove my new toenail into somebody else's face.

"Look at this toenail I found."
