"Hello? Can you all hear me?"

"Pepropé! Is that you?"

"So you recognize my voice. Yes, Princess, it's me"

Yet Pepropé is nowhere in sight.

"Where aer you, Pepropé? Come out."

Pepropé has transcended the mortal realm, but that familiar voice still reaches you from the beyond.

While aware that it will hurt Princess Palpa cruelly, he speaks in order to fulfill the role he must play.

"It would seem that I've somehow conjoined with this ship and it is keeping me alive--in a fashion."

Everyone is understadably bewildered by Pepropé's words.

"Conjoined? So what does that make the ship? Is it the god we've been seeking?"

"You could say that. but a part of her died from the assault by the aliens' attack."

"Died?! Then what will become of our world?"

"Fear not. The ship has transferred all control to me. I am now the ship, and the ship is now me."

"Are you saying you're a god now, Pepropé?"

"While that is essentially so, I have no intention of claiming myself divine. There is a matter more urgent--namely, the reason we fell to this planet. Allow me to explain."

Pepropé asks you to brave the marshlands and head for the jungle beyond. You should find some ruins beyond that, he says.

With that, he falls silent and speaks no more.

Palpa must likewise choose hers.

"So what are we supposed to accomplish once we find these ruins?"

You question Pepropé but there is no answer.

"Perhaps there is something I can yet do as princess of the stonefolk..."

Palpa has an indefinable premonition and the sense that she has one final duty to carry out as princess.

Pepropé chose his path: to save Palpa from doom. Palpa must likewise choose hers. And another thought lingers in her mind: If she must choose, then it will be a path that Pepropé would accept.

"For I am the princess of the stonefolk."

This distant, uncertain world evokes in each you a deep longing for the world whence you came.

In all systems, contaminants are targeted for elimination. Native species wage war with invaders in a struggle to eradicate them.

The goal of both sides is the same: victory. For victory means preservation of the species.

"Wonder if this is edible"
"Idiot. Don't come crying to me when it bites you back both ways."
"Mmm, not half bad."

But there is no onset of food poisoning. Perhaps the constitution of the life forms on this planet is not entirely alien to your own.

"Bah, this is a nightmare! Why are all the creatures here so huge?"
"I wonder if we're anywhere near those ruins Pepropé told us about."

"Can you...hear...me?"

"Pepropé?!"

The damage to the ship--and by extension, to Pepropé--was far graver than expected. There is little time left.

Animata, nearly dead already, will soon be lost and return to the earth whence she came if nothing is done.

Your world will likewise be lost, forcing you to live our your days on this perilous planet.

Fewer than ten percent of you are likely to survive beyond a year after that.

That is, according to Pepropé, a very real possibility awaiting you.

Responding as one,
your party vows to defy such a fate.
