Very cautiously explore the bland corridor.
(Quite late where I live [1AM], so no special stuff this time)
You enter the corridor, you arrive upon the control room, you find a note and read it.
The note says:
James Buckler. Captain. 2415 (367 years ago).
"Hello again. Hope you enjoyed the walk here, I sure didn't. Goddamn gigantic tree roots.
See the Big Red Button™ on the left? That will shut down all shields in the bases. I warn you though, I saw something frightening behind one of them, and that's from a hardass like me.
See the purple button on the right? That opens all blast doors, DON'T PUSH IT FOR GOD'S SAKE. Remember the highly secured door back in the facility with my first note? I don't know if you would like to meet what's behind it, But I know I wouldn't.
Oh, you want to know some of my story?
Okay, I'll start from the beginning.
I am James Andrew Buckler, captain of the USESEF (United Sol Extra Solar Exploration Force) "We come from earf" (Yes, really).
I am a
Titan born man, and proud of it.
I was tasked with exploring a wormhole found around Pluto, apparently the three moon's gravitational forces combined with Neptune and Eris's were creating a wormhole. Though no one knew how long it would last. So fast forward me ending up in a system, and just my luck, the wormhole is gone.
I eventually find a earth-like planet. And suddenly I'm hit with something, I have to make a crash landing on a lake.
Fast forward three days of surviving, then I found the ruins where you found the notes. I find a plasma weapon on the ground. Then noises, creatures appear out of the dark and attack! I fire multiple rounds from Loud Betty (My pistol) into the creatures, most of them go down. All but one. A large creature nearly my size, I fire multiple rounds into it, it does not go down. In desperation I fire the plasma like crazy, and it finally goes down.
Fast forward my searching of rooms till when I made my first note and there's your story.
Next note whenever. Hope I wasn't too bad at my next note spot. No, I'm not walking from the next note position and back again. Too much work, you'll just have to get lucky. Though they should be easy to spot.
-Buckler."
