Well. You all saw it. There isn't much time to waste. We should all formulate a plan. The last thing we need is mass-chaos.

My best guess would be to secure anyone who can't fight in the temples. We'll probably need people stationed by each to keep watch over them. The rest of us can move in to corral any enemies into one area.

If anyone needs help or transport, I'll do my best to reach you.

[A beat.]

McCrane, Gunmax? I suggest we stick together. We're stronger in a group. And I... I have an idea. Grab as much oil as we have stockpiled. I'll meet you two at [Insert coordinates.], please be safe. Help anyone you can on the way.

Nice to meet you, Drift.

[He gives you a very bright smile.]

Well, my friend Gunmax has an alternate mode- a cannon. But it requires two people to aim and fire. We've worked out a narrow passage where we can funnel a good amount of enemies into and take them out in one blast. We just need someone to lead them into the corral and get out of the way fast enough to avoid any backlash.

We're down by Prima's temple, if you're up to it.

[Drift approves of this plan. Extra approval for the cannon. All he's got are two swords. This is much better.]

[He nods.] I can do that.

[They do seem to swarm, strangely attracted to the rust he's leaking. Getting them to follow him shouldn't be hard at all.]

If I can't clear the shot in time, take it anyway. Getting them's more important.

Not a chance. I wouldn't sacrifice someone, even if it means having to do it the hard way. One life is more important than fast victory.

[That is not up for debate. He sends you some coordinates.]

Meet us here and we'll bring you up to speed, okay?

Sometimes, it's not an option.

[He's thinking of Sunstreaker, standing on the bridge, facing down the Swarm, giving his life to detonate the bomb that would keep the rest of them safe. ]

And sometimes it's an honor to trade your life for the safety of your companions.

[Drift will debate anyway!]

All right. I'll be there in...10 kliks.

Hey. Nobody gets left behind on my watch.

Nobody.

We'll see you soon.

[... He only realizes he doesn't know how long a klik is later.]
