II=Scouting fleet 163-A=II
II=Report 163-A-2=II


163-A1: Jump succesful.
163-A2: all systems intact. anybody with secondary effects of rift jumping?
163-A3: everything in order.
???: Is this it? your homeworld?
163-A2: affirmative. this is where we live.
???: i see an abundance of these... non hostile particulate? how did you tame it?
163-A2: cant say. classified.

A. Moon guardian 015: HALT. IDENTIFY YOURSELVES.
163-A1: This is Scouting fleet 163-A.
163-A2: we have discovered a crystalline lifeform stranded on a remote location of Redacted Space.
A. Moon guardian 021: WE READ YOUR REPORT. YOU CAN PROCEED.

163-A3: thank you very much.
???: ... huh?
163-A3: strange... this wasnt here..?

163-A2: ah, so Zosimos is back then?
{the crew laughs. the alien stays there, dumbfounded.}
163-A1: yes, hello? managers of the new shipyard? we got a really damaged ship here.
SY. Managers: that doesnt look like one of ours.
163-A2: my my! how very observant of you!
163-A1: ...we found this ship stranded in a remote sector within redacted space. whoever is in there, claims to be of assistance. perhaps we can provide it with... giving it our ship's healing abilities?
???: our ships already do that to an extent, but this...
163-A2: your ships dont have template fixators, then.
???: the what?
SY Manager: ok, just stand still. we will analyze your ship and repair it according to what we think the ship looked like.

???: ok..?

???:its working!
SY Manager: stand still.

???: a bit more!

???: there!
SY manager: is it as good as new?
???: yes! thank you so much, kind sir!
SY Manager: ma'am.
???: oh! sorry! i dont really know much about humans.
SY Manager: Fleet 163-A. you must report yourselves and this newcomer to Alexander.
Scouts 163-A: yes Ma'am!

???: who is this 'alexander' person? we will meet him now?
163-A2: the leader of all TP military as of now. and yes, we will meet him.
???: oooo, so he is like, your equivalent of our prismatic? wait, does he know prismatic?!
163-A2: you are asking too many questions.
???: am i? sorry!
163-A1: dont worry.
163-A3: knowing alexander, he could be anywhere on his Xander.
163-A2: or at the capital.
???: lets go! i am excited to meet this person!
163-A2: yeah, well, you have to be respectful and calm speaking to him. he has a very big... bias.... against anything... not human.
???: what is a bias? and why does he have that against 'not humans'?
163-A1: hydraxil collective.
???: they have invaded your homeworld? how did they get through these defenses?!
163-A2: back then, that ring of metallic asteroids was not around.
???:oh... oh my...
163-A2: again, too many questions. lets just send a transmission to the Xander, see if alex gets it.
163-A3: why didnt we think of that before?
163-A2: because you are dummies.
163-A1: quit it, A2. send the transmission now.
II=End of Transmission=II

(blue is me/particle hole/CMC)
(green is computer)
--TRANSMISSION BEGIN INSTANT ALERT-- 
 
... but do you have any other ideas on how we're supposed to re- 
Sorry, continue. Here's a list of other ideas. I got an instant alert... 
... 
Computer, what's wrong? 

ALERTS: ONE
No, duh. What kind of alert?
ALERT TYPE: SHIP. LOADING IMAGE.... 

Oh.... Oh my. Hmm. Is that... Computer, compare ship types. Tell me Corporation only. Also tell me location.
SHIPS DETECTED: 
THREE (3) TPC SHIPS 
ONE (1) CRYSTALLID SHIP 
LOCATION: 
IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM. PAST THE METALLIC ASTEROID BELT. 

How did they get crystallid.... 
Wait a second. 
This transmission's going, isn't it. No set recipients? 
Computer. Set a recipient. The Crystallid Convergence. Prismatic, preferably.
Transfer the entire transmission to them.

NEW TRANSMISSION RECIPIENT: CRYSTALLID CONVERGENCE. PREFERED RECIPIENT: PRISMATIC
End transmission. I got some other things to do relating to re-
END TRANSMISSION

its a bit long

{on a communication channel with hysoka}
have you gotten there yet?
not yet. rift jump taking longer than expected.
alright... report to me whatever it is that happens there, ok?
copied.
II=Incoming Transmission: SF 163-A >>> Xander=II
alright, we'll talk later, ok? i have to attend to this transmission.
alright. see you later, Alexander.
II=Comm. channel cut.=II

hmm... so scouting fleet 163-A brought a strange damaged crystal lifeform to our system just like that. *sigh*... lets just hope that this... thing... turns out as trustworthy as hysoka.

{the Xander then warps in to the location of the Scout Fleet.}

II=Opened Comm. Channel: Xander <> SF 163-A <> $#4RD.=II

???: wwWHOAH! aaamaaziing!

Scouts 163-A: greetings Alexander.

explain your reason of bringing this... entity to our planet?

???: your ship is maassive! you must be their prismatic!

... pris-what?

163-A2: we dont know either.

???: i guess us crystallids were dormant for that long... the humans have forgotten us...

163-A3: wait, what?

???: do you guys know the seloi? does 'seloi' spark a thought?

163-A1: hmm...

163-A3: no...

163-A2: not at all.

how did- nevermind... i need to get to know you better. perhaps conduct some research on you.

???: research? me? what will you do to me?

that is up to my head scientist, Samuel. speaking of which,

Samuel! Samuel!


... what, Alexander?

Look at this.

...they brought a giant crystal? i suppose i can-

???:hey! there is something in the crystal!

{Samuel spits out a drink}

...WHAT?

{Samuel bolts out to a ship to get a closer look.}

amazing..! you say you are also made of crystals?

???: yep!

hmm... external laser modules. too exposed. can be taken out easily.
hmm... what seems to be crystallized versions of a Command module and a Lathe.

you were a mere lathing ship?


???: what do you mean 'mere'? each crystallid has an important role!

oh really? then why did they leave you stranded?

???: ... *starts crying*

...that is enough, Samuel.

163-A3: you just screamed at a child. how do you feel, Samue-?

you are fired, scout. how do you feel? thats what i thought-

ENOUGH. Samuel...

you keep taking it too far, Sammy.

Cole?! since whe-

if there is mire, or particulate made by me, there i am.

...

now, you need to calm down...

???: *sniff*, what is happening?

Samuel, come back to the Xander.

I need to study this further!

yeah, do that later.

...hmph.

{Samuel returns to the Xander}

???: ...meanie sammy is gone..?

...meany WHAT?

you heard nothing! you heard nothing. calm down.

...hey crystal...entity? lets go land and keep talking face to face, why dont we?

oh, and fleet 163-A? good job. keep it up. (you are not fired, A3.)


163-A3: (thank you!)

163-A2: thats it? thats all we get? we discover a completely new kind of lifeform and all we get is a 'good job'?

163-A1: calm down A2.

comm channels are still open. you know, i was planning on ascending you to a higher position along your crew, but... guess what? i decided not to anymore. A1 and A3, board the Xander. your new positions will be given here.

163-(A3 and A1): yes sir!

163-A2: ...

meanwhile YOU... stay scouting. you will be assigned to join another scouting group.

163-A2: ...yes sir.

{Alexander gets off the Xander into TP. the crystallid follows. they enter the Capital, where people look at the 'strange floating human-sized crystal following Alexander' with confusion. Alexander leads the crystallid into the dormitory section, and looks for a vacant one.}

alright, so this is where you will be living in for now, until we build one that... suits your needs?

???: ooooo, what is this thing?

that is a bed.

???: what is it for?

we use it to sleep on it. do you sleep?

???: this thing is confy! hehehe!

yeah, its... its not really good for bouncing on.

???: aww...

...so, crystallid, wasnt it?

???: oh, crystallid is the name of my people.

so whats your name?

???: i dont have one. usually prismatic names us but-

then how will i call you?

???: i dont know...

hmm... you glow on a grey-ish tone.

???: ...uh huh? each crystallid has a distinct glow.

distinct glow you say? hmm... your grey-ish tone reminds me of metal.

???: ...what..?

i just thought of the name 'ferra' for you but i dont think-

???: *gasp* I like that name! thank you so much!

...ok? Ferra it is then!

Ferra: i like it!

uhh... you are... glowing differently now..?

Ferra: oh? our glowing can change according to our emotions too!

alright... so, anything we can help you with for now?

Ferra: hmmm... nope!

alright. you can sleep if you want, watch TV if you want to too, i will be back.

Ferra: wait! what is a 'TV'?

{Alexander was already leaving the dormitory}

Ferra: oh, he left. ... why would anyone watch this 'TV' thing? it just shows a black box. am i watching it wrong?
Ferra: hmm... a 'bed'... for sleeping...
Ferra: i guess there is not much else to do here other than that.
Ferra: hehehe! im not used to soft surfaces like this!
Ferra: alright... now... to sleep...
Ferra: ...to sleep... *yawn* ... to... sleep... *zzz*

Cole, this is written in mire. I know you can read this. 
 
It's absolutely massive. This is in a planet. Made of mire. You know what I'm writing here. 
I'll try to brief you in as much as I can: 
 
I allied with Crystallid a while back, but they seem to be doing neutral actions right now. Not much, really. 
I'll get as much in as I can with mire. 
The Crystallid may have spoken of another one known as "Prismatic Placid Flare", it may not be exactly the same but it should be similar. 
They won't die of old age, so keep it protected and it should last forever. 
Crystallids don't have "genders" but due to contact with external sources (cough cough humans) some of them choose to give theirself a gender. 
There are a few other notable crystallids besides Flare, but Flare is the emperor so I'll focus on flare. 
Flare is about 5 million earth years old, and (as stated above) is technically female by her definition. 
Crystallids are still definitely alive, and Flare has an incredible psionic power 
When a crystallid pilots a ship it can "transfer its soul" to the ship, literally becoming the ship. 
... 
I got all of this data off of an online database and it's location is here https://knuck

h- how did you... i can... ALEXANDER!

Whoa, hey, whats the emergency?

Remember that crystal-made lifeform 163-A rescued?

yes, i gave it a room to suit itself in. What about it?

The CMC has spoken to me.

really? What did they say?

they told me that they know about crystallids.
That he spoke to the leader of the crystallids, some "prismatic placid flare" 


great news! We will be returning that little fella back to his family.

the CMC said something else to me.

what is it?

hmm... crystallids dont die of old age...
That they dont have genders persay...
Crystallids have psionic power...
Crystallids 'become' the ship to pilot it...
That prismatic guy identifies as... girl?
That prismatic person is 5 MILLION EARTH YEARS OLD.


Aaand they ran out of mire.




...thats it. Seems to be general knowledge about crystallids

knowledge that is always good to have. I will send a transmission thanking them.

no need. I am already thanking them.

oh right, you can speak through mire.

yep! ...so what will we do now?

I guess we will wait for that prismatic to come pick that little fella up.

alright.

now, if you'll excuse me, i will go on and create a second asteroid belt.

...you madman.
What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets! But enough talk, HAVE AT YOU!

Cole: Wooahhhh.... that felt weird.

Larcwyde: Did... did you see that too?

T-Mat Administrator: Allow me to introduce you to the Wireframe. You wanted the reward of knowledge. We will allow you to interface with the Wireframe and learn what you want to learn. See what you want to see.

Nine questions. Three for Arc, three for Sim, three for Cole. The Wireframe will show you the answer.

I wouldn't waste this opportunity. No other being in the universe can access the Wireframe like we can.

the ships... *sniff*... they are beautiful!

9 questions... 3 each... those flashes...

'information overload' huh? I should change that around in the ship.

what are you doing?

upgrading the data storage in the mothership. Increasing it by tenfold.

...There. that should-


!!=INFORMATION OVERLOAD.=!!

... ok? A little bit more...

such firepower..! Such beauty..!

... sim, are you drooling?

{Sim ignores Larcwyde}

those... ships...!

god dammit Sim. Control yourself.

do i go first with my questions?

hmm... i will ask first.

ok

II=begin transmission.=II
Greetings. We have decided to state our questions at last.

my questions first.

How did you all come to be?
Who exactly are all of you?
Where did you come from?

I would like to know everything about you.


hmm... i guess mine now.

...uhh... why did i get a random flash of exile battling against a... 'renegade nexus'?

...where IS exile?

Who are the hydraxils?

Perhaps we could help..! Someway or another! There has to be a way!


...sim?

...? Oh yeah, the questions.

For once, they asked who are you, and i ask, WHAT are you?

Second question, ...how... no... hmm...


think, sim. Think.

hmm... why is your ships' hull made of "living metal"?

and third... hmm... how did you create or find this living metal?

These are my questions. ...thats... thats it.


...couldnt you have ended it better?

you know i dont know how to end a conversation


sim... you-

Now if you excuse me, i will keep admiring these titan-sized beauties.

...the transmission is still going...

Nice ships!

ZOSIMOS. STOP EMBARRASSING US, DAMMI-!

QuoteHow did you all come to be?
T-Mat Administrator: The T-Mat started as a galaxy-wide Confederation at first, formed to fight off the greatest threat they faced at the time. They failed.

==========


[Commander] Skovax: We're massively outnumbered, there's no way we can win this fight!
[Admiral] Sylander: We can't let this fleet past. Tiamat forgive me... I'm detonating the Singularity reactors.
==========

T-Mat Administrator: That was over 7 billion years ago. The survivors fled and lived as galactic nomads ever since, cataloguing all life they came across, and discovering all the technology they could along their path. It only took three galaxies to find what our greatest enemy feared.

QuoteWho exactly are all of you?

T-Mat Administrator: Hmm...

Nomad: You see these two ships next to me, and the two ships next to Excalibur? Those are the colony ships holding the T-Mat. Of course, they had to be rebuilt many, many times, that's why they look more like asteroids than ships.

T-Mat Administrator: The first encounter with the... hm, I shouldn't say what they are... the Harvesters, i'll call them. The first encounter with the Harvesters was a harsh lesson. They went from over 50 colony ships, to only being left with 3. It would have been a different story if they didn't arrive at the end of that galaxies Common Era. After that, it was deemed too dangerous to act inside galaxies. Only specified agents would go into the galaxies themselves. Nomad and Excalibur here are such agents. They are not actually part of the T-Mat, and neither am I.

Excalibur: The T-Mat always recruit when they can. I myself am recent acquisition, joined the T-Mat this month. If you scan my vessel, you'll see that it has been modified to fit T-Mat standards, but that it does use GalCorp bases with traces of Seloi designs.

Nomad: The T-Mat have been here for over 3 Common Era's. I have been here for 2 of those. I was acquired after a rebellion in the galaxy near the Hiigaran's home, the Whirlpool galaxy as you call it. Most vessels of my class have disappeared, except one, but... well... you can ask the Somtaaw about that one.

T-Mat Administrator: Exile is the oldest of the agents. His acquired vessel is an old Teigaran Planet Cracker, from a very far away galaxy. There are two other agents you have not yet met. One is Oracle, he is the second youngest. The Seloi attempted to create a Nexus for the particulate by first using a mind lathe on a volunteer to graft his mind to a Progenitor. We... acquired him shortly after. Oracle is currently tracking down an anomaly. The other agent goes by the name Graverobber. Unfortunately... he has disappeared. We have still yet to find him.

T-Mat Administrator: That was the Wireframe. A neural mesh woven throughout the universe that we have the ability to access and retrieve memories from. We still do not understand the Wireframe as much as we wish. Our journey to learn more of it has taken us here. We do not yet understand why.

Quote...where IS exile?

T-Mat Administrator: Sector Yuld R43 A12. There is currently a dimensional interdictor field in place that only the T-Mat can breach.

focus on your questions sim...

You mentioned 'seloi', but our databases do not have instances of such. Who are they?


hmm... i dont... hmm... 2 questions...

...'planet cracker' huh?


why would you want a planet cracker?

...hydraxils?

oh for crying out loud... that is not a question, is it?

no its no-

good. think about your questions carefully, Sim.

I am. I just... nothing pops up in my head...

think harder.

geez alright.

Hmmm...

Aha! How did the wireframe get created?


nice one! One more to go.

and how does it store all of that information?
Meaning, how does it work?

QuoteYou mentioned 'seloi', but our databases do not have instances of such. Who are they?

T-Mat Administrator: You do not know of the Seloi Imperium? They are the human civilization that was before you. They are the people that created the particulate. The Seloi left archives and other relics, many of them are still here. Perhaps it is time for an expedition to Redacted Space, if you want to know more about them. Be careful, however. The deeper you go, the more aware the particulate will become of your friend Cole. Progenitors are built to be relays to the central Nexus. Be careful with them, because no matter how you change them, the underlying core programming is still there and may be exploited.

QuoteAha! How did the wireframe get created?

T-Mat Administrator: As far as we are aware, the Wireframe is a natural phenomenon. Not a constructed thing, but an invisible dimensional layer created with the rest of the universe. Maybe even before.

Quoteand how does it store all of that information?
Meaning, how does it work?

T-Mat Administrator: Our knowledge of the Wireframe is very limited. A prevailing theory is that the Wireframe is the memory of an actual mind. Whether the universe is a living being, or a complex machine is up to you to decide for yourself. We think it is a combination of both. Either way, we see no point in attempting to search for an answer to a question that cannot be answered. Nothing less than conversing with the universe, or interfacing with it directly will suffice.

Your questions are used up. Your knowledge has been granted. But... before you leave...

Cole. I would like a favor, if you will. We wish to use the Wireframe to see the creation of your particular Progenitor, but we do not know where to look. It seems more complex than most Progenitors, which act as information relays more than anything. We will allow you to access it once more, but only for this purpose. Do you accept?

are there any possible risks?

i think they just want to study the Progenitor, so i dont think there are any risks...

Alright! Lets give it a go!

There's no way the Collective know about it yet, and given the fact that it's been two common era's, many thousands of years, I doubt it ever even crossed their minds to think it might have survived. But, still, it's too dangerous to leave out in the open.

T-Mat Administrator: Agreed. Cole, i'm triangulating the location of the Forge using the other megastructures as a reference point.

Samples of my progenitor? Sure thing. Im speaking with Alexander as of now.

I am sending our current location back to TP to bring the samples.

there might be a problem as the squad bringing the sample mightnt be able to go back-

they will just have to wait it out with us then.
We are trapped here too until rift space restabilizes itself.


the Important thing is the sample here, so i am positive they can just wait a few moments.

correct. Have you told Alex ye-

told him. He is sending a group as of now.

alright.

Our research team is as of now retrieving a sample of our progenito-

there goes a piece of the progenitor...

you have never shown an indicator of pain like that.

COLE! ARE YOU OK?

c- calm.... calm down father... wOW that... was special...

they are taking... the sample to the mothership's coordinates...

Cole... please tell me what is it you feel... you are worrying me...

ugh.... you know... I... it... it feels like a... headache...

fascinating... i need to keep studying this further.

you mean to tell me you will try to inflict more pain to me?

hey hey, limit yourself with Cole, Larc.

I didnt say that. I wouldnt do that.

ok, good.

the... the progenitor is... healing? The spots where the samples were taken from have been refilled.


ok good.

self-healing progenitor? Fascinating phenomenon i would love to study.

father larc... you are starting to scare me...

again... limit yourself with Cole, Larc.

and again... I will NOT inflict pain upon Cole.

Aight, hold up, I think I need a refresh on Tierra Prima's backstory, as I may have forgotten a few things.

Cole was acquired from a destroyed Progenitor, right? Or am I remembering that wrong?
I was basing that whole T-Mat thing with Cole off the idea. I was thinking that the Progenitor he was from was still in Redacted Space, so I was expecting a little adventure to return to it. Maybe throw a Locus Avatar, or something, in the way to spice it up. Or something along those lines. (really i'm just making most of these things up along the way, only now am I really thinking about plans) So if i'm mistaken, I'll need to renovate things a bit.
