## Summary

Early on, Zavala, recovering from his injuries, obtains the nimble trait. Cluster columns begin being researched to help defend from future infestations in the base. Soon after this, he declares his happiness at the colony and requests to join. Despite his poor stats, the colony welcomes him in and nicknames him "Briam with a q". A blight hits the hydroponics bay, ruining much of the rice. Dreeb takes too much darkshroom and overdoses, needing to be rescued. The colonists struggle to keep up with the blight, not cutting the crops as fast as the blight grows. By the time they manage to wipe the blight out, its ruined a significant portion of the rice. After Dreeb recovers, a few weapons are swapped around. Elnubnub takes the charge lance and Dreeb takes a charge rifle. Meat then gives birth to Demeatrius.

The colony accepts a quest that draws a mechanoid swarm to the base. Several colonists get ready at the mortars and begin firing onto the cluster.

Rewind!*This section is **noncannon** because of a file reload. You can skip this section if you wish.*
When the mortars are ineffective, the colony resigns to attack the mechanoids head-on. In the scuffle, Loser gets in front of Orthur and takes an anti-material rifle round to the chest. He dies instantly.

And we're back!*The noncannon information has ended.*
Broadly the mortars miss, doing little overall damage to the mechanoid cluster. Milt strays too close to the mech cluster and gets injured. From across a nearby lake, Orthur fires his anti-material rifle at the mechanoid cluster and successfully destroys a large portion. Loser pushes up alongside Orthur and provides cover fire. Dan also arrives and aids in the fight. A barrage of well placed shots from the three destroy the last of the swarm. After the battle, the ruins of the battle and various structures are stripped for their steel.

Due to a psychic drone, one of the guests becomes belligerent and attacks several colonists and Worf. Due to injuries he sustains in the fights, the guest dies in the base. Stench also breaks down and begins an insulting spree on Loser and Dreeblet. Limmy goes berserk and begins fighting anyone he comes across, chasing Dreeb throughout the base punching him. Eventually the mental break ends in Stench and Elnubnub knocking him out and carrying him to the medbay. Briamq's refugees move on and leave, thanking the colonists for letting them stay. Susumu leaves almost immediately after. Stench and Elnunub work together mining out a small hallway out of the back of the base as an emergency entrance/exit.

A psychic ship crashes outside the base flanked by around 10 scythers. Milt fires on the ship and races towards the new rear exit. The rest of the colonists place themselves in front of the base and await the mechanoids. A cluster charge outside the rear exit explodes, damaging the majority of the mechanoids. The scythers then return to the ship to defend it. All of the colonists move to a nearby lake and begin baiting the scythers to get into turret range. Elnubnub stays behind to fire one shot from his charge lance, annihilating a mechanoid instantly. However, when taking a second shot, he is caught by several scythers and downed. The colonists line up to fire on the scythers and have Stench attempt to rescue Elnubnub. He doesn't make it far before also being incapacitated by the mechanoids. Most of the scythers are destroyed except for three that stayed behind to defend the ship. Stench and Elnubnub are taken to the medbay to heal. Dreeb, Loser, Orthur, and Dreeblet are sent as a special ops squad to take out the remaining scythers. The four, along with worf finish off the mechanoid threat and destroy the ship chunk, freeing the colonists from the drone.

As the group returns to the base, they are chased by a pack of manhunting polar bears that stampede into the region. Several uninjured colonists ready themselves to take on the polar bears. One manages to find its way into the base and is fired on by two turrets and Dreeb who happened to be outside at the time. He takes on the polar bear, seeing how truly strong they are. Several barrages of Dreeb's charge rifle still take a significant amount of time to take down one of the bears. Another polar bear wanders into the base and is able to destroy a mini-turret. Elnubnub peeks out the door but quickly turns back to return to the medbay. Gradually, more of the polar bears make their way into the base and are shot down by various colonists. Limmy gets cornered by one and is forced to cast painblock on himself twice so he can survive the encounter. Briamq attempts to install a door in the chokehold but unintentionally lures three polar bears over. Half a dozen colonists prepare themselves at the chokehold, firing on the bears as they all begin to file in. The gunfire lures in the last of the bears and they are destroyed by the firing squad. Milt and Dreeb tend to the wounded, but both Limmy and Briamq develop minor infections. Yeowl then gives birth to Meatus.

Once again, as the colonists return into the base, a mechanoid cluster with a droner crashes outside the base. Mortars begin raining onto the cluster, waking the guarding mechanoids and making them charge Milt. Milt and Loser expertly dispatch two scythers, saving a passing Unga. However, Loser is caught in the crossfire of several of the cluster's turrets and a centipede. He manages to get back to the base, however. Finally, several colonists round up to kill the centipede and charge the cluster. Because of a forcefield, they're forced to get dangerously close to even damage the turrets. The last of the turrets are destroyed in bloody close combat, with almost everyone suffering gunshots. Following the battle, Loser and Dreeb get infections and Dan nearly bleeds out in the med bay.

A massive Saio Nation raid arrives and begins breaking into the base through the rear entrance. Stench places himself at the final door with several colonists behind him with guns. Despite having help, Stench and Worf are downed, allowing the raiders to push forward. Ayla manages to hold them off with her shotgun, causing them to eventually flee out of the tunnel. Not long after, the stream ends as Vinny gets increasingly tired.
