I believe I will be able to take a universal translator, and use scans from the Crucible to try and identify whatever its language is.

I will need the best universal translator available, however. Go to these coordinates, there will be a trader expecting you.

You think I have not been keeping tabs on them? I know what threat they might pose. I need to know these things.

We were able to receive a communication from it, briefly.

I suspected as much. Do you need help communicating back with it, or killing it?

Communicating, for now.

Let’s go to the Crucible, then.

It is currently located outside our station.

That will save time, at least.

This is a good start, but I will need time.

Dialogue
If this Crucible reactivated, then it’s likely that others will, too. And once they do, they’ll be in danger.

That’s right, specializing in galactic linguistic devices. I have the finest device ready, just for you.

Presumably, there is a steep price for this device?

The Crucible is still outside our station. Fortunately, it has not led fleets of ships to our location.

It is still not able or willing to communicate with us. It is unlikely that it understands us, either.

There is an acquaintance of Toryn’s who specializes in newly-discovered linguistics. His name is Arlen Dowe. He is in the system, we could ask him for assistance.
