Well here we are! Caidin town... not very impressive.

"I didn't expect a shanty town really, this is a major Borg settlement?"

> "Don't care. Want body!"

Well we just can't do that, we need to discuss a course of action. We gotta think carefully, I have learned that every town has a Eddy.

"Do you mean a paranoid wreck or a informant?"

I'm not going to dignify that with a proper response.

Talk to the blue guy

Do you think the Eddies all shared that bunker?

>>740050
Alright, probably the Informant here.

>>740051
Probably not, Eddie would likely be too paranoid to share it with most people.

Alright, so just meet up and

"Heeeeey there Friend... welcome to Caidin town, we're all bros here, whatcha need?"

They give off a lax vibe.

"Are you sure he's a borg?"

"Most people here in Caidin are. Wouldn't make much sense otherwise, some of us just like to customize ourselves friend. Tell me, are you on the lookout for Info?"

Well really. I'm looking for my Reactor Core, it was stolen from my base by a bot with a working energy blaster. Oh and we have a Cyberbrain that wants a body.

>"Hello!"

"Well that's quite the pickle. A big bot did come through here not to long ago, he was carrying a core so that could be him."

"Sounds like it," Yeah, I'll check the tracker once we deal with out brain friend

"I can take you to the shop, I just need to know the name of your Cyberbrain ally so we can get them a body."

What is her name?

>"Don't ask me! I forgot a long time ago!"

What will we call the Cyberbrain?

Would it be okay to call her Mag? It's short and in no way referencing a certain game.

Hmm. Is B-4 too on the nose?

Or what about Lisa?

Ziggy.

Seconding Ziggy.

Mag sounds nice.

Hey Doc. Got a moment?

Yeah Doc. It's my job after all. Got a new patient for ya from some... "new friends".

This is Ziggy.

She wants a new body. Think you can help out?

Sadly not.

Ziggy sighs while Madware just squints at the screen of my datapad. We have no choice, Reactor Cores are rare and valuable.

Everyone ready?
"Yep."

>Anything left the characters must do before leaving or shall they continue the journey?

>>747459
Massive robot orgy.
For morale.

Is there anything we can do for our ancient giant robot AI buddy? Im not saying we get em a body, but is it possible to communicate with them before we get our reactor core back.

Sillyness aside, I kinda need your help. I found you in a old wreck, your body rusting away helpless to the sands of time, you were low on power and would have probably suffered brain death. So I saved you.

"State Purpose for AI recovery. Eurasian Army Property is sacrosanct under article 15 of the Federated Union Wartime Conditions. All Military AIs must be returned to their proper field operators in case of Body Frame Failure."

Eurasia? Federated Union? By the hand of man what is this Guardian saying?

Reason: Helping a brother out. Query: Are you still at war. Does this Federated Union or its enemy still exist. What if no operator is available to take your call.

Eurasia is the name for the entire continental mass of Europe and Asia.

That's on Earth.

I have no idea what exactly humans are... how do you know? But yeah giant... Guardian AI system. I backed you up to save you and now I wish for you to run my crawler. As for Eurasia and it's Federation, there's nothing but sand.

"Recovery failure. Will delete self to-"

NONONONONONO! I'm not going to hurt you. I'm giving you a new purpose... I swear the Guardians were supposedly smarter than this.

water can't just disappear it had to go somewhere.

>how do you know
Let's say we're privileged to some old information. It's relevance may greatly vary given that was a long time ago.

Also isn't Ziggy a preserved human brain?

>>755381
I'm sure there's ocean somewhere. Just because you're in a giant desert doesn't mean the whole world is. Like >>755384 said, the water has to go somewhere.

It's quite possible that all the land has been desertified though... Depending what exactly happened to make the world this way.

You could be parts of my previous iterations still stuck in my hard-drives, as for Ziggy. I unno, she hasn't said anything, some Borg brains don't even recall the world before. Others are formed from carbons who need new bodies because theirs are dying.

I think we've covered everything here, right? If so, are we ready to get going?

>>756710
Good to know we're possibly the phantoms of hand-me-down positronic data.

Are we able to communicate with the guardian while walking or is this 1:1 cyber neural interface whatzit going to occupy all your cognitive power until we can just stick it in a floating drone or something?

Okay... we got Ziggy a body, Madware's on our side, we know where to go next... The Guardian's mind is functional and willing to work.

Any last things or can we go now?

There's probably a safe way to disconnect and the fast way to disconnect. Guess which one you took.

Nothing else, let's follow the trail!

Lets get this Borg roadshow underway!

By the way Volt have you heard of any kind of working flying craft? It just seems that flying would be a much better way to get around the wastes than on wheels.
