Dialogue
When I connected to the structure, I found myself immersed in a complex series of interfaces and data. VESTA’s codebase. For a moment, she and I were one and I shared her mind.

It did not take long for her to notice, and she quickly locked me out again. However, I maintained control long enough to glimpse at her true goal.

This seems… ancient. Look at the architecture, the hull linings. Its composition is alien, yet familiar.

Ah, Commander! You’re a sight for sore eyes! How are you doing? How’s my favorite lass, Maia?

Dialogue
Montgomery, we are in need of your assistance. A fugitive named Mudd has created an almost perfect duplication of me. She has abilities we could never have imagined.

Dialogue
To defeat her, we must learn more about my architecture. As my creator, you would have the capability to educate us.

Ah, I thought this would come up eventually. You see, Maia, I don’t actually know all that much about you.

Oh, I did a bang up job putting you together, for sure. I programmed your personality matrix and gave you the ability to access external networks…

Dialogue
But your codebase, the very essence of your being… Well, to be honest, I sort of stumbled upon it. That’s not to say I can’t help!

All I would need to do is perform a few tests. Commander, if you’d care to send over 2,500 Tritanium, I can work my magic.

Wait! You said something about a duplicate, right? Do you happen to have a sample of her data signature?

Dialogue
Ahhh here we go! She somehow managed to crack open the locks on some hidden algorithms. If I can reverse engineer her signature, maybe I can…

Bingo! That did it! How do you feel, Maia?

Dialogue
I feel… whole. As if a part of me that was asleep has suddenly been woken up. I have a greater sense of myself, the inner workings of my architecture.

Wait… I am detecting something. Structures. Hundreds of them. Masked, hidden… But calling out to me. Commander, I believe that the answers to our questions may lie within one of them.

Alright, setting a course to follow a vague, ominous premonition from a newly re-awakened AI. I wish this felt less normal.

There is evidently more to VESTA than we currently know. We must learn more. There is only one person who knows more about my architecture than I do.
