The two strange-looking Astatines make their way down that corridor that looks down into the habitat. Following them, you now notice there are people down there. One of the Astatines communicates with you;

"Looks like you're coming with us! I guess I'd better introduce us. I'm K'tek and she's Twon, we're both Robot Astatines, you may have noticed. I used to be an Organic Astatine and Twon started life as a subroutine in one of the old GIC corporations. How's your radiation resistance?"

There are a few notable things going on.

The first thing that catches your eye is a Skrax handling one of those strange, brass-coloured cylinders.

There seems to be a standoff between two of those small creatures (like the one that the Mallard kicked into the goop), each with primitive gun-like devices which are way too big for their thirty-centimetre stature.

Another think that catches your eye is what seems to be a Hopedweller (Or perhaps a genetically engineered Chironian? The Hopedwellers split off from the Chironians genetically - via genetic engineering - a few thousand years ago after the post-obsolescance collapse on Chiron) pushing through the crowd toward you.

With these things taking place close to you, you almost miss a strange bird-like creature covered in long yellow down guiding a Kaoom out of one of the tunnels. This is notable because these two creatures don't match any of the genetic templates common in this part of the CIC. Kaoom definitely shouldn't be in contact with the inward-looking CIC, at least as far as you know.
