Journal
- At your word, the guidance node hovers off, but not before warning you that the Beta Quadrant is home to chimerical monstrosities. Follow the node to Matter Conduit IV-V and speak with it to receive further instructions.
- You arrive at the next matter conduit only to find that it does not work. According to the guidance node, chimerical creatures nearby are siphoning away the energy necessary for activation. Alphinaud suggests that you split up and eliminate these pests. For your part, see to the creatures at the Recombination Labs.
- You have eliminated your share of the chimerical creatures. Make your way back to the guidance node at Matter Conduit IV-V.
- With no monsters left to siphon energy, the matter conduit comes back to life and is now able to send you to the Gamma Quadrant. Examine the conduit when you are ready to proceed.
- You arrive in the Gamma Quadrant to find the place crawling with Garlean soldiers. Their presence is an unwelcome complication to your mission.
Dialogue
Accepting the Quest
Guidance Node: <blip> Resuming guidance to the Aetherochemical Research Facility. Please follow me. Guidance Node: This sector, the Beta Quadrant, is home to laboratories which produce chimerical life-forms for both military and household applications. Guidance Node: Our facility has been awarded three-star certification for compliance with ASO-3001. The good behavior of the creatures born here is guaranteed. Guidance Node: Please be warned, however, that millennia of neglect may have had an adverse effect on their disposition. For your own safety, please refrain from approaching the creatures.
Optional Dialogue
Alphinaud: The area teems with chimerical creatures. Be on your guard.
Y'shtola: The Allagans did not respect life. Brilliant as they were, I cannot bring myself to respect them.
Estinien: The orb is beginning to try my patience.
Speaking with the Guidance Node at Matter Conduit IV-V
Guidance Node: <blip> Unable to activate matter conduit. Energy shortage detected. Identifying cause... Guidance Node: Cause identified: unauthorized siphoning of energy by chimerical creatures. Locations: the Recombination Labs and the Biomass Incubation Complex.
Alphinaud: Time is short—let us split up and eliminate the culprits. [Forename], pray dispatch the creatures at the Recombination Labs. Alphinaud: The rest of us shall sweep the Incubation Complex. Take care, and return hither when you are done.
(Optional) Guidance Node: Energy shortage detected. Cause: unauthorized siphoning of energy by chimerical creatures. Locations: the Recombination Labs and the Biomass Incubation Complex.
Optional Dialogue (at Biomass Incubation Complex)
Estinien: I welcome the chance to limber up ahead of the battle to come.
Alphinaud: I can hold my own! Y'shtola: What has gotten into Alphinaud all of a sudden?
Optional Dialogue (after killing chimerical creatures)
Estinien: Machines are not to be trusted, least of all those that can think.
Y'shtola: Alphinaud has come far. Master Louisoix would be proud.
Alphinaud: While facing the chimerical creatures, I had a moment of inspiration. I feel I have attained a better affinity with arcane entities.
Speaking with the guidance node at Matter Conduit IV-V (2)
Guidance Node: <blip> Energy restored to the conduit. Please wait a moment while I activate it.
Optional Dialogue
Y'shtola: The next quadrant awaits. Let us make haste
Guidance Node: Conduit activated. You may travel to the Gamma Quadrant at your leisure.
Using the Allagan teleporter to travel to the Gamma Quadrant (Cutscene)
Alphinaud: So the Garleans managed to land... Repairs on their vessel appear to be well underway.
Y'shtola: I doubt that they will leave any time soon, however. Nay, they will remain here long after they have stripped the isle of all its secrets.
Estinien: Whether or not they mean to linger, there presence here and now is an unwelcome complication.
Y'shtola: Indeed. Let us avoid confrontations unless absolutely needful.
