Seo: Skip the lecture about how I shouldn't be 'flying around the galaxy by myself. Or that the noises in my head are 'too important'. Alba already tried.

Seo: Salvation had a failsafe device. Some kinda digital storage for human consciousness. He called it the 'Nemesis' protocol; just the type of codename an arrogant prick would give themselves. It must have been activated before the Bright Sentinel was destroyed. The recovery crew only saw a corpse, right?

Tanner: Yeah. The body's ID was confirmed but Thargoids showed up before it could be recovered. I saw the report from the rescue crew. I can't say l doubted its authenticity.

Seo: There's no chance Salvation would have been on that ship if he didn't have a getaway plan. He's too much of a coward to face death. Final death, l mean. I know he escaped somehow.

Seo: I'm always exhausted. I didn't ask to join your stupid war with the aliens. Now I'm trapped in the middle of it, because of him. This Nemesis device will prove Salvation's still out there. If I can find it. Are you going to help me or not?

Seo: The upload's finished. Check your inbox.
Tanner: Message received. There's a lot of stuff here. Seo.
Seo: I've checkmarked the important parts.
Tanner: So you have. Where did you learn to find this information?
Seo: I used to be a private investigator. My boss had a soft spot for people who'd been screwed over by the corporations. He taught me how to access private networks without setting off any alarms.
Tanner: You're a hacker, then.
Seo: Oh yeah. a real 'cyber-net-hacker'. Nobody talks like that anymore. Info is only as safe as the network it lives on. Didn't you ever learn how to bypass in the Federal Army?
Tanner: Federal Navy. And no. it wasn't part of my training to steal classified data. I had a network of spies who did that for me.
Seo: I read that you tried to seize data from Azimuth's computers at Hind Mine, but failed. Maybe that wasn't part of your training either.
Tanner: I can hear your grin, Seo. Instead of smart-mouthing your way onto my bad side, how about you explain how you found out about this Nemesis thing?
Seo: Fine, fine. Remember when Azimuth was forced out of several systems last year? They left a few  unmarked data clusters on local servers - I doubt on purpose. One had access port info for a primary...
Seo: Did you send someone after me?
Tanner: No. Why do you ask?
Tanner: Are you still there, Seo?
Seo: I could have sworn there was movement on my radar. Can't see anything now. You'd tell me if you did, yes?
Tanner: It depends what my objective was. But I'm telling the truth. I'm not aware of any plan to have you followed.
Seo: Okay... Okay. let's go through this data. Start at the first checkmark.
