Hab Dreyko

Investigation // Morrow (+Hestia & Nobles), Morrow (+Wolfer), Brahms (+Kayex)

A new form of the Blight has hit Transit Hub HL-16-11 hard. Scan the plague residue and maybe we'll get lucky.

Overview

Zone: Chasm Terminus

The Phage Tree in Hab Laranax. (prior to update)

Hab Dreyko is a quarantined zone, alongside the neighboring Hab Laranax. Between Hab Dreyko and Hab Laranax is the Burnout Bazaar, above which are various catwalks and maintenance pathways through it's superstructure. Biotic Probes are used to inject the tree with said shriving unguent.

The Magos Kharib is a Magos Biologis, who assumedly is an acolyte of Grendyl, is working to create a blessed unguent of shriving to poison the Phage Tree within Hab Block Laranax.

Biotic Probe Auspex objective minigame.

The entrance of Hab Block Laranax is marked by Moebian 21st corpses on display. These were likely one of the many Advance Recon teams Interrogator Rannick sent initially sent into the lower levels of the hive to discover the true extent of the unrest on Atoma. It's possible that this could be the same team as those in the Official Teaser Trailer and World Intro Trailer.

Hab Dreyko Transcript

Area / Objective	Morrow (+Hestia & Nobles)	Morrow (+Wolfer)	Brahms (+Kayex)
Intro	We've got a Phage Tree to poison in Hab Blobk Laranax. / The Phage tree in Hab Block Laranax needs to die, and you need to kill it. / Tonight, you're indulging a bit of anti-hydroponics: killing the Phage Tree in Hab Block Laranax.	There's something nasty in HL-16-11. You're gonna do something about it. / The Blight keeps spreading out of HL-16-11. We need to slow it down. / Things ain't good in HL-16-11, so guess where you're heading?	The Phage Tree in Hab Block Laranax must be suppressed ... or preferably destroyed. That brings me to you. / I am told that a Phage Tree in Hab Block Laranax is the source of the Blight. Well, we can't have that. / The Phage Tree in Hab Block Laranax is an increasing concern. I can't have operatives bringing its Blight aboard ship.
	That means getting up to the minute data on the current iteration of the Blight to facilitate the creation of what Magos Kharib calls a "blessed unguent of shriving". Don't ask me. That's what I was told. / The tree's always in flux, which means the Blight's always evolving. If we get data on the latter, we can craft a blessed unguent of shriving - whatever that is - to nobble the former. / That being the case, we need what I'm told is a "blessed unguent of shriving". Which in turn means that we need current data on the Phage Tree's Blight. That comes first.	You'll proceed to Hab Dreyko and gather data on the current Blight strain. We'll use that to tailor a shriving unguent that can kill off that festering "tree" in Hab Laranax. / The Phage Tree in Hab Laranax is a key Blight source, so you're gonna gather some data for(so?*) Magos Kharib can create a(the?*) necessary shriving unguent. With me so far? / You'll be taking out the Phage Tree in Hab Laranax. To do that, Magos Kharib needs data on the latest Blight iteration to tailor a shriving unguent.	Gather data from Hab Block Dreyko that we can use to create a blessed unguent of shriving to poison the tree's ... unique nature. / We require Blight data from Hab Block Dreyko, in order to sythesise a shriving unguent capable of poisoning the tree. / You will gather data from the area, allowing us to create a blessed unguent of shriving capable of destroying the tree.
	Oh ... And we've got oversight from Tertium's noble houses for the duration. Lucky old us. / You've got the easy job. I've got to play nice with some of Tertium's nobility. Rannick's idea. Bastard. / Some of Tertium's nobility have wangled their way into this one. Try to ignore them. I wish I could.	My advice? Wear gloves and breathe as little as possible. You come back infected and you won't be coming back at all. / Make no mistake: this is gonna be a mucky job. If you've got any complaint? I don't want to hear them. Got it? / Should be straightforward enough ... if you keep your nerve and don't go touching things you shouldn't. Guess we'll see, won't we?	I will be monitoring you closely. I recommend that you do not disappoint. / Shall we? After all, you've come an awfully long way for this. / Do try not to make a muddle of things.
Transit Hub HL-16-11-421 - Service Gantry
(Enter HL-16-11-315 Hab Dreyko)	Mamzel Durellia: Rannick claimed these were his best operatives. I must say, they don't look it. / If this strike team's appearance is of any indication, this mission is already a failure. / Are these ragamuffins really the best Rannick can provide?	Moebian VI Adjutant: Sir? Sentries report another Mourningstar strike team approaching Hab Block Dreyko. / Picket lines are reporting intruders in the Chasm Terminus void. Moebian VI Comms Officer: Getting reports of movement in the Chasm Terminus void. Could be intruders. / Inquisition Team reported in the vicinity of Hab Block Dreyko.	Kayex: How may I assist, aid, support you shipmistress? / Summoned, I arrive to serve thy bidding ... though little I comprehend the reasoning.
	Sister Prine: I can vouch for their ability, excellency. / You do them an injustice, excellency. / Their records are ... impressive, excellency.		Brahms: Knowledge is always valuable, Kayex. A fine quarry. / It's very simple, Kayex. I'm curious about the Blight ... and I don't trust Rannick to indulge my curiosity.
	Sire Mangolin: It quite escapes me as to why you are here, novitiate. / Your opinion was not courted, novitiate. Nor your presence wanted.		Kayex: Ah ... You seek understanding. A worthy, forthright, noble goal. / Examination of the Omnissiah's grand purpose is ever wise.
	Sister Prine: I go where Interrogator Rannick sends me. / Interrogator Rannick bid me attend on his behalf. / I am Interrogator Rannick's protege. He bid me attend.	Captain Wolfer: Our allies won't like that. Very well. Despatch response teams. / Is that so? Then they're after the Phage Tree. Alert the response teams.	Brahms: Rannick will object, but what does that matter to anyone? / Rannick will likely not agree, but that is Rannick's problem. / I'm sure Rannick will see it elsewise, but that is very much his problem.
	Morrow: Is all that sorted? Good. Because I've got a mission to run. / I'm glad that's sorted. Back to the war. / All friends now, are we? How nice.	Morrow: Gets addictive, this eavesdropping. I used to be an honest soldier. / Glad this widget of Hadron's is still working. Sounds like you're expected. / I'm starting to see why Rannick loves listening in so much.
	Player: (Mission start)
HL-16-11-421 - Ironside Alley
(Enter HL-16-11-315 Hab Dreyko)	Morrow: Could be a bit of unpleasantness in Hab Dreyko, excellencies. I hope you don't have weak stomachs. / Hab Dreyko. Move in, but watch your backs. / Hab Dreyko sighted. It's a bit of a heretic nest these days, excellencies.	Moebian VI Adjutant: Mourningstar strike team confirmed. Moebian VI Comms Officer: Response teams report visual contact with intruders. / Intruders in sight. Approaching Hab Block Dreyko.	Kayex: Here was wickedness wrought upon the Omnissiah's children. / Spare a moment of grief for the unhappy mechanisms; perverted, misused ... soiled. / The systems of HL-16-11 are screaming, wailing, writhing. They mourn the dead.
	Sire Mangolin: Lord Margrave has always been too tolerant of ... the destitute. / Poverty is the breeding ground of treachery. The poor are always so ... ungrateful. Mamzel Durellia: A vile warren. I expect the inhabitants to be no less ... uncouth. / Only the degenerate live in such places. I know this all too well. / Fascinating isn't it, how societal refuse reshape their swellings to reflect their inner natures?		Brahms: Regrets and sorrow are of little service, Enginseer. / A tale told in many quarters, its power lessened in each retelling. / There is little profit in sorrow, Kayex.
	Sister Prine: The Emperor loves them still ... even if others do not. / Tertium's leaders abandoned them long ago. / We should pity them. Heresy spreads out of neglect as much as wickedness.	Captain Wolfer: Wake the poxers. The groaners. Everyone. / Instruct all squad leaders to prepare a suitable welcome. / Remind squad leaders of the price of failure.	Kayex: Indeed. Indeed. / As you say, shipmistress.
HL-16-11-315 Hab (Dreyko) - Entrance A
(Override the Door Security Protocols)	Mamzel Durellia: What a wretched place. A demolition order will be required. / I see some battle damage, but the neglect goes deeper. / Much of this neglect clearly predates the invasion. Sire Mangolin: There is little worth salvaging here. Better that it burns. / This place is in truly lamentable condition, even considering the war.	Morrow: Watch your step. This place looks like it could collapse at any minute. / Could be an ambush around every corner. Stick together. / Stay alert. They'll be coming for you.	Brahms: I suppose I should be grateful that stench does not carry over vox and auspex. / This is all quite splendidly vile. Wouldn't you agree, Kayex? / Disgusting. Though I really don't know why I expected better. Do you agree?
	Sister Prine: Surely it falls to us to restore hope? / These people were abandoned. We should not repeat the mistake. / The inhabitants were forgotten. Little wonder they grew desperate.		Kayex: A thousand imperfections seethe beneath the surface. / Decay ... All is decay. Soul, circuit and sorrow. / The distress of filament and circuit resound through the silence.
			Brahms: You might simply say "yes". / As ever, your poetry is execrable.
(Enter Quarantined Floor 176)
[Security Checkpoint] - [Floor 176]
(Enter Quarantined Floor 176)	Morrow: Right. This quarantine zone should be familiar. / You're approaching the quarantine zone. Stay alert. / The quarantine zone looks as welcoming as always.	Morrow: Quarantine zone sighted. Advance and clear. Watch you backs. / You're in the quarantine zone. Expect heavy resistance. / Watch your step in the quarantine zone. They know you're coming. / Should be plenty of data hereabouts. Let your servo-skull sniff it out, you grab it.	Brahms: I understand that this is the edge of the quarantine zone. Curious. / You are approaching the quarantine zone. I expect at least moderate success from you.

(Deploy the Servo-skull)	Morrow: This is your scan zone. Deploy your servo-skull and get me some nice samples. / Right. Get your servo-skull out and get me those samples. / Scan zone reached. Deploy your servo-skull and be careful what you touch.	Morrow: Here we go. Deploy your servo-skull. She'll point you towards the scan targets. / Should be plenty of data hereabouts. Let your servo-skull sniff it out, you grab it. / Right, this is the place. Get your servo-skull out and get me that data on the Blight.	Brahms: A suitable harvest site, Kayex? / This appears a suitable location to gather data.
			Kayex: So shall it be. Free the servo-skull. Let knowledge be gathered. / Indeed, indeed. Let the servo-skull entreat the Omnissiah for enlightenment.

(Proceed to HL-16-11-318 Hab (Laranax))	Sister Prine: I believe that comprises all the samples in this area. / Thank you, strike team. We now have sufficient samples. / Those samples should suffice, sergant-major.	Morrow: That should do it. Transferring the data to Magos Kharib for analysis. Make your way to Hab Block Laranax. / Looks good to me. Magos Kharib will pick over this while you make your way to Hab Laranax. / Right. I'll get this data to Magos Kharib for analysis. You get yourselves to Hab Laranax.	Kayex: We have learned all that we may. Magos Kharib has much to study. / Data is ours. It is sufficient for Magos Kharib to enshrine the shriving unguent.
	Morrow: What she said. Get moving. I'll get these samples to Magos Kharib. / You heard the lady. Move on to Hab Block Laranax.
			Brahms: Whatever you think proper, Kayex. Operatives? Proceed to the next hab.
[Security Checkpoint]
(Proceed to HL-16-11-318 Hab (Laranax))	Sister Prine: Vigilance lapsed, and now these citizens are dead. Emperor have mercy. / These citizens expected protection, and how was their trust repaid? / These deaths were avoidable. The hive Administratum had a duty to these souls.	Morrow: You should see this data. The blight's getting nastier. / Our Magos Biologis needs more time, but he's confident we'll get something. / Analysis is progressing nicely. Make sure you do the same.	Kayex: [Shudder of Pain] Unhappy machine spirits sing their loss all about you. / Unfunction rules this desolate quarter. Barbarism of the first order. / The hidden choir sings hymnals of pain. Such unfunction is there here.
	Sire Mangolin: It seems clear to me that novitiates should be seen and not heard. / And what would you know of such matters? Mamzel Durellia: There speaks the voice of faint-hearted inexperience. / Maybe so, but we cannot change the past. / In my experience, hindsight is a currency much overvalued.		Brahms: Control yourself, Kayex. There is nothing we can do for them at this hour. / Please set an example to the strike team, Kayex. / These outbursts are scarcely proper. Contain them.
			Kayex: I stand chastened, shamed, remorseful ... / My apolosies, shipmistress.
	Morrow: Do you mind, excellency? I'm trying to run a mission here. / If we can keep the chatter to a minimum? Operational discipline, and all that.
HL-16-11-315 Hab (Dreyko) - Maintenance Section
(Proceed to HL-16-11-318 Hab (Laranax))	Sister Prine: Blessed Emperor, let retribution find the despoilers of this, your domain. / Blessed Emperor, forgive us for failing these citizens. / Blessed Emperor, receive the souls of the righteous dead with favour.	Moebian VI Adjutant: I'm getting jumbled reports. There's a lot of confusion on the ground. / There's a lot of vox chatter. We're taking casualties. Moebian VI Comms Officer: Intruders have made it to the Burnout Bazaar's superstructure. / Vox chatter suggests heavy casualties. No word on the intruders.	Kayex: Below ... This is how free range pre-servitors refuel? / That space below. A refueling station for pre-servitors, perhaps? / A feasting station for pre-servitors, be that below?
	Sire Mangolin: Do not weary his ears with your impertinent prayers. I can't think why Rannick thought your presence appropriate, let alone necessary. / Do not mistake piety for rigour. Why ever did Rannick force you upon us? / Must you babble? What was Rannick thinking, sending you here? Mamzel Durellia: I am curious as to why Rannick wished you to join us.	Captain Wolfer: How hard can it be to execute a mere four Inquisitorial Lackeys? / If the squad leaders cannot bring me the strike team's heads, I'll settle for theirs. / Need I remind you that there are only four of them and hundreds of us?	Brahms: I've told you before: Don't call us pre-servitors. It's ... presumptuous. / I've warned you before about that ... unhappy term. We are not pre-servitors. / Kindly do not refer to us as pre-servitors.
	Sister Prine: The interrogator's will is his own, excellency. I do but serve. / I cannot answer for the interrogator's desires ... excellency.	Morrow: I don't know why Zola wants to bother killing Wolfer. He'll give himself an aneurysm at this rate. / Old Wolfer's having a bad day. Breaks my heart.	Kayex: Apologies, shipmistress. I fear great age has made me forgetful ... and also made me forgetful it has. / I am distraught to have offended you, Oh Lady of the Stars.

(Proceed to HL-16-11-318 Hab (Laranax)) (near) [Security Checkpoint]	Mamzel Durellia: I always thought the Inquisition had high standard for its operatives. Foolish of me. / This has been a sorry display, sergeant-major. I trust it will improve. Sire Mangolin: Your operatives are somewhat more effective than I expected. / I am not impressed with your operatives, sergeant-major. But they seem adequate.	Moebian VI Adjutant: Mourninstar strike teams approaching Hab Block Laranax. / Intruders are thought to-- No. Intruders confirmed at Hab Block Laranax. Moebian VI Comms Officer: Intruders breaching the Laranax airlock. / Intruders breaching the Laranax airlock. / Laranax airlock compromised. It's them. Has to be.	Brahms: I shall expect full quarantine protocols to be in effect for the strike team's return. / Before I forget: full quarantine protocols to take effect immediately. / I trust you are ready to instigate a full quarantine for these operatives?
			Kayex: The scalpels and scourers are already prepared. / Oversee the process personally, shall I.
	Morrow: I'm sure the team values your insight, excellency. / Can't speak to that, excellency. Maybe you should take it up with Rannick or Zola? They're always happy to talk.	Morrow: They really don't sound happy. / You've picked up a following.	Brahms: What is life without a little pain? / How thoughtful. / They will survive, I'm sure.

Sire Mangolin: Such abominable filth! / That monstrosity! I have no words!	Morrow: That thing's ugly as ever. Magos Kharib's come through. Set your biotic probes running and deploy the shriving unguent. / There's the Phage Tree. Magos Kharib has come through with this "blessed unguent of shriving" or whatever. Set your biotic probes. / Set your biotic probes and let's get this filth purged ... assuming this unguent of shriving is all that Kharib says it is.	Brahms: Isn't that Phage Tree magnificent? ... In a repulsive sort of sense. / That must be the Phage Tree. It's even more repulsive than I imagined.
	Sister Prine: And it will be destroyed. Strike Team, your biotic probes are now capable of delivering the unguent of shriving. Deploy them. / Strike Team? Your biotic probes are now capable of delivering the blessed unguent of shriving. Deploy them and standby. / And(?*) we shall end it. Strike Team, deploy you biotic probes. Let the blessed unguent of shriving flow.		Kayex: Deploy your biotic probes. Let the unguent flow. Shriven shall this abhorrence be. / Your biotic probes now seethe with the unguent of shriving. Annoint the tree, you must. / Magos Biologis Kharib has worked a wonder. Deploy the probes. Let the shriving begin.

Old Version

Partial archive of the old version of Hab Dreyko's transcript. In the Path of Redemption update, Hab Dreyko would be revamped with new mission-directors replacing all the older dialogue, a new auspex mini-game (biotic probe), alongside various other minor environmental tweaks.

Hab Dreyko (Old Version)

Investigation // Hadron, Masozi, Morrow

A new form of the Blight has hit Transit Hub HL-16-11 hard. Scan the plague residue and maybe we'll get lucky.

Hab Dreyko is a quarantine zone and is normally sealed, as seen in other mission variants the Chasm Station map. In Morrow's mission briefing he notes that "the Dregs are all over the neighboring districts".

In the older version of Hab Dreyko mission, Hadron talks about finding the mutant strain's source (Pathogen-designate 'Strain Kappa 687453/Hereticus Omega') for the Council Biologis to study, Masozi rumours Rannick might be promoting research into a cure for the Blight, and Morrow talks of Dregs being all around the neighboring districts. In the new version of the mission, finding the source of the various, mutating plague strains is still a primary concern. Rannick is still withholding information from Brahms and other associates, Magos Kharib could be part of this 'Concil Biologis' studying the pox strains, and the Dregs consider Hab Laranax sacred ground, or at least Urmal's followers do.

The forsaken plights of the citizenry are put in the spotlight with the dialogue between Hestia and the nobility, however, the marketplace (now referred to as Burnout Bazaar) is no longer commented on by rejects. This is only worth mentioning since our operatives bring up the plague and famine effecting the area.

The Phage Tree, as it's now known, was only vaguely acknowledged by Hadron, as "the anomaly". The Seer's Beloved says "these growths are very old, and also very young." Indicating the cycle of rebirth common in Nurgle's wheelhouse.

There are many reasons why Inquisitor Grendyl has a personal interest in this investigation mission, as mentioned by Morrow. Any theories of the Inquisitor's interest being centered around the Phage Tree and it's ever-evolving blights.

Location	Profssional	Loose-Cannon	Cutthroat	Judge	Fanatic	Agitator	Savant	Seer	Loner	Bodyguard	Brawler	Bully
(Chasm 1) (Darkness)	Yeah. This is real welcoming.	Dark around here, ain't it? Let's bring some light and fire!	Light conditions are non-optimal. / Low light. Watch the shadows.	Beneficent Emperor, light our way through this darkness.	Those who dwell in darkness better appreciate the God-Emperor's light.	Redemption is better earned in the darkness.	They could have warned us the lumens were down...		I miss the sun.		Dark for dark business [laugh]	The dark feels good. Feel familiar. / There's something horrible in the dark. Me.
(Chasm 2) (Citizens)	The Sector Habculum is where it all happens. Packed in tighter than canned soma-fish, they are. / This is the frontline for Tertium.	They pack 'em in tight down here, you know. No wonder it smells bad. / We're on the Tertium line now. Act like it.		We must cleanse this place of heresy, lest contagion spread.	We'll cleanse this place one heretic at a time.	Think of it! Millions and millions of citizens, crammed together and guided in toil by the Master's servants. Paradise!	Chasm Station shouldn't be this quiet.		Bleak? Depressing? Almost an improvement by Atoma's standards...	Chasm Station, is good name, yes?	Place is empty... like me. Could use some nosh...	Expecting crowd. Not empty. Boring!
(Mission start)	Time to earn our pay.	Anyone interested in a tontine? / How did I end up in this mess anyway?		Triumph shall be ours, in the Beneficent Emperor's name! / Be of firm hearts, pilgrims!	We bring light to the lost, and death to the faithless.	Gird thy faith!	It is time to bring justice to Tertium.				Ogryn always ready for battle. Heh. / Stick with me. We'll get it done.	Don't let me down, runts.
HL-16-11-315 Hab (Dreyko) - Entrance A
(Enforcers)							No enforcers are treading this beat. We're on our own.				Enforcers? Snivellers! The whole lot of 'em. / Guards left post? [disgusted spit] No sense of duty, that.
(Hab Block)	(I grew up in a Hab Block like this one.)		This is not hard living. Put most people on the line with a lasgun and they'd call this luxury.	If faith once lived here, it is long gone.	It sorrows me to imagine heresy festering amid the once-faithful citizens of this place.		This place is sanctuary to many.				Still smells like a hab-block... / Hab-block. Watch for ambush!
HL-16-11-315 Hab (Dreyko) - Floor 177
(living conditions 1)	You think this is spartan, you should see a Militarum barracks.	It's not much, but it's more than I'm used to.		Those who live here suffer, while the rich enjoy the fruits of the workers' labours.	Deprive the body, nurture the spirit. They understand that here.						Not built Ogryn size, are they?	Maybe search? Folk always leave valuables behind.
(living conditions 2)	Beats being in the trench lines, I guess. / Yeah. Crammed in tight and so desperate to get out they'll take any offer ... even when the Guard comes recruiting.		So what? Move on.	What hope is there in the face of such poverty?			Our sightlines are not good here. We should move...		Yes, fascinating. Can we leave now?
HL-16-11-315 Hab (Dreyko) - Maintenance Section
(Empty Marketplace)		You sure we can't take a quick rummage through those stalls?		While this plague rages, the people starve.	I expect the faithful to keep to their habs, or else be corrupted by plague.	It will do the faithful good to fast while the plague passes. / Faith is sustenance enough in dire times.	This place should be thronged with citizens...			Hungry. Anyone have spare rations? / Hrrnn.	Market with no food... horrible sight.	Should look for dropped cred-chits. You never know. / Empty. Pity.
(Perturbation)	I don't like this, sarge ...				There is corruption in the air. We draw near!		This block feels unsafe. Remain vigilant. / Remain alert. I sense danger.			Feels wrong. / Could be a trap.	Hab-blocks all look alike.	I hope this is it. My feet hurt.
HL-16-11-318 Hab (Laranax) - Hab Laranax
(Moebian 21st corpses)	Throne! That's a real mess, ain't it?		Stay sharp or that'll be us. / Bad way to die.		Martyrdom before surrender! A noble fate. / Better dead than damned.		I can tell you, this isn't a typical crime scene, associates.				Whatever did this is gonna get what's coming to 'em...
(fleshy corruption)	Eyes open. I reckon we've found the reason for the quarantine.	Oh look. Goo. How can this end badly?			The very walls bleed filth and damnation!		More filth... The last thing Atoma needs...	The slime. It's ... alive. It's aware of us ...	Well, that slime looks horrible, I grant you. But so does everything here.	Horrible stuff. Should burn it out.
(Hab Laranax 1)	What the fragging Hel is this place? / Yeah, I reckon this is what we were looking for.	Interesting taste in decor ...	I've seen worse places, but not many.	Throne and damnation. This place must be cleansed. / What dark Gods are worshipped here?		A nest of heresy and corruption!	So much filth! / Would that this industry had been for Atoma's benefit...	My beloved says these growths are very old, and also very young.		Don't like this place. Eyes sharp.	Look at this grutting mess...	Bad place.
(Hab Laranax 2)	We're gonna need a lot of fire to cleanse this place ... like, all of the fire. / Would you look at that. Nasty, ain't it?	Reminds me of my first barracks, only it's cleaner. / The Dregs actually want it this way, don't they? Stupid karkers.		What dark Gods are worshipped here?			More filth... The last thing Atoma needs... / I advise keeping clear of that slime...	No. I don't like any of this. It'll have to go.		Do not touch that thing!	Mutie Stuff... do not eat!	Seen one gooey mess, seen 'em all!
HL-16-11-318 Flight Deck - Flight Deck Approach
(Hazards)	Fragging hel! It's coming apart!			We are falling! / Our sins are weighing us down!	God-Emperor preserve us!		Be alert, it's coming apart!	Careful! It's unstable!	Look out! It's collapsing!		Oi, watch out! Place's coming apart! / Careful mates, bit shaky here!	Watch it! It's coming apart!
(Rushing)	Get fragging moving!	I'm not waiting for you!	Extract, now! / Time to go!		Good riddance to this place!		I'd like to take my leave.		I'm not built for all this rushing around!	Moving. / Time to go.	Time to move out...
(Nearing Extraction) (x1-3)	Move your feet! Almost there! / Yeah! Nothing like seeing evac waiting up ahead!	Nearly ... Nearly ... / come on! Do you want to stay here?	Move! / We are close.	Victory is in our grasp! / Courage, Pilgrims! Our duty is almost done. / Beneficent Emperor! Is it almost over?	Don't give up now, kindred! / Glory or martyrdom! / We approach our destination!	Success beckons! / Master be praised! We return in triumph!	[Heavy breathing] Nearly there. / [Heavy breathing] Finally. / [Heavy breathing] Close now.	Well... This has been a very interesting dream.	[Heavy breathing] I can make it ...	Not far! / Move faster!	Come too far to give up now...	Keep up! / Fall behind, get left behind!

Intro	Pathogen-designate 'Strain Kappa 687453/Hereticus Omega' has mutated to a new form. Further data is required. / Pathogen-designate 'Strain Kappa 687453/Hereticus Omega' has grown increasingly virulent. This is unacceptable.	Rannick said to tell you that the Blight is causing mischief again. Hungrier than ever, it is. / Here is what I know: We have a new wave of infections from the Blight.	The Blight has changed, and our old analyses are useless. This is where you come in.
	Procede to the Transit Hub HL-16-11. Conduct auspex scans of plague residue for new data. / Mission Location: Transit Hub HL-16-11. Mission Goal: Acquire detailed scan of new pathogen strain. / Pathogen identified in the Transit Hub HL-16-11. You will scan plague residue to isolate the new strain.

You will need to scan plague residue for the new strain. See if it's true.	You're going into the Transit Hub HL16-11 quarantine zone. Find plague residue and scan it for the mutant strain. / Storm Raptor will insert you into Transit Hub HL-16-11. You're looking for plague residue to scan for the evolved strain.
	Strive for efficiency. The Council Biologis is eager to receive new data. / I suggest you strive to overcome your obvious limitations in pursuit of this goal. / Please indicate your comprehension. Simply 'grunt' if you cannot find the words.	Keep your heads down. You are not the first team I have ferried in for a mission like this. / Rannick claims they are trying to make a cure ... but you never know what is really going on. / Just remember, if things go wrong ... ? Well, I will be close by. Ace's Luck to you.	Recon suggests light resistance in the area, but keep your eyes open. / The Dregs are all over the neighboring districts, so expect some company while you're down there. / The Inquisitor's showing personal interest in this mission, so don't disappoint.

Trivia

Nurgle is a god fond of growth, in a way, often manifesting as a parody of plants and gardens. A tree isn't an uncommon Nurgle design, from the feculent gnarlmaw in the table-top game, to the Gallows Tree in Warhammer Fantasy lore, often being a locus of Nurgle's influence. Regardless of what the tree is or could be, it's evidence that the barrier between the Warp and reality in Tertium has been growing thin.
