 	NVDLC03ChristineMedicalCenterHolotape	Pained 50 	{Quiet, she's in a cell - she's been tortured, but recovering} This is Christine Royce. Knight of the Brotherhood of Steel... the Circle. {AUDIO: In this log, Christine has just been operated on. She's not horribly weak, but definitely tired and worn out - she's committed to die.} 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineMedicalCenterHolotape	Neutral 50	Not going to make it through this, hope someone finds this message, gets it to the Brotherhood in the West. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineMedicalCenterHolotape	Neutral 50	Tracked a rogue Brotherhood Elder, Elijah, here, to the Big Empty. {Breath} Place is more than it seems, there's a crater hidden deep inside. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineMedicalCenterHolotape	Neutral 50	Junkyard of Pre-War labs scattered across the crater's surface, all still running... {to herself, mutters} like this one. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineMedicalCenterHolotape	Neutral 50	Elijah's dissecting these centers, one by one... tracked him to an old Chinese-American internment camp. Survivors, Ghouls, have bomb collars. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineMedicalCenterHolotape	Neutral 50	Robots moved in when I tried to intercept him... Elijah sent the camp Ghouls against us both, like walking bombs. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineMedicalCenterHolotape	Neutral 50	Got hit by the explosions, woke up here. {To herself} Guess the medical robots were programmed to bring wounded victims from the camp to this center. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineMedicalCenterHolotape	Neutral 50	Some kind of Auto-Doc prototype lab... manned by corpses trapped inside suits that keep them moving, no idea why. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineMedicalCenterHolotape	Neutral 50	Not sure how long I'm going to last... cut open my head like a lot of the humans I've seen here, feel strange, can talk, but can't hack the term...{"terminal," trails off} 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineMedicalCenterHolotape	Neutral 50	{AUDIO: Need a distant explosion as Ulysses breaks in to save Christine.} 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineMedicalCenterHolotape	Neutral 50	{AUDIO} ...wait, an explosion outside. Someone's here... someone's... {crackles, fades} 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses01Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Slight frustration, trying to make a point} ...don't want to argue philosophy with you. Brotherhood are {emph} preservationists. Tech in the wrong hands, it's dangerous. Mojave's proof. {AUDIO: In this log, Christine is debating with Ulysses, her "doctor." She's still recovering on her bunk - a little tired, but still strong.}	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses01Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Shrugs} No denying that. Proof's here in this crater, all around us. {Beat, slightly appraising} Your tribe, the Brotherhood - haven't met many of you. Wanted to. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses01Holotape 	Neutral 50	{More reflective} Thought you might be the last chance for the Mojave... the West. The East. But you're all the same mind, obsessed. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses01Holotape 	Neutral 50	{emph, correcting} Elijah is obsessed. He's mad. It's why they ordered his execution. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses01Holotape 	Neutral 50	{"You..."} Two are more alike than you know, too wrapped in the wrong bits of history to see ahead. {Shrugs} Not judging. I know how it is. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses01Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Quieter, reflective} People are like couriers, you and him. Sometimes don't even know the message they bring. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses01Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Turns attention back to her} You all had a {emph} new flag. Thought maybe new ideas along with it. {Beat, quieter} What you believe isn't any better than the Bear or Bull. No future in either. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses01Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Defiance} So says the man with the Old World flag on his back. America, the Commonwealth... burned away. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses01Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Slight anger, low} America {emph} sleeps. And until it's dead, I carry it. Just like I carried you. More than hope. Belief. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses01Holotape 	Neutral 50	There's voices here in the Big Empty, I want to talk to them. Not like your Elijah did. {End on a downnote, like a movie trailer going away} Got questions. Want to hear history give its answer. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Quiet, Ulysses has just entered} ...didn't think you'd make it back. {AUDIO: In this log, Christine is greeting Ulysses when he's come back from a difficult journey. She's still recovering on her bunk.} 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Dismissive, matter-of-fact} Almost didn't. Got my answers. {Rueful} Your Elijah, he met the Gods in this place, did a good job of making them question the way of things. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Hunting instinct} Do you know where he went? 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	He's gone to the Sierra Madre. That's a special kind of hell. He won't come back. Someone smarter, tougher's going to kill him. If the Madre doesn't. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Determined, angry, hates this guy} I have to go after him. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	Not going to talk you out of it. Know what it means to track someone you share history with. Got a meeting of my own. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Quiet} That Courier? 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Nods} Get her to come to me. {Beat, slow} Got a message for her, like the message she had for me. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Cold, staring into future, slight bitterness} Make them walk the road west, straight and true, sink their feet in Old World ash. Let storms tear at them. See the Divide. See what happened. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Divide = Dangerous, desolate area, quiet} The Divide? There's nothing there. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Slight smile} Nothing there? Like the Big Empty? The Sierra Madre? No, the Old World sleeps there, sure as the flag I carry. The Courier knows the way. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	{Closing note, foreshadowing final conflict} And at the Divide, her and I - there, we'll have an ending to things. 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	{DUPE} {Quiet, Ulysses has just entered} ...didn't think you'd make it back. {Almost didn't. > As in, "almost didn't make it back." Dismissive.} 	
 	NVDLC03ChristineUlysses02Holotape 	Neutral 50	{DUPE} {Dismissive, matter-of-fact} Almost didn't. Got my answers. {Rueful} Your Elijah, he met the Gods in this place, did a good job of making them question the way of things.
