The **Hephaestus Mining Company** is a mining conglomerate based on the volcanic planet Hephaestus, the closest planet to Halcyon's sun.

## Background

Hephaestus Mining Company ran a mining operation on Scylla around three years after the Hope was classified as missing. The outpost was abandoned after a year and left behind some mining equipment because the venture proved to be less profitable than was expected.

The company was the first to establish outposts on the planet Hephaestus, allowing it to claim the planet for itself. Prior to establishment on Hephaestus to company also had a base of operations on Terra 1 Employees of Hephaestos Mining Company were not allowed to use company terminals for leisure activities (it was considered a "Time Theft") and personal messages could only be sent with a supervisors permission.

Most of the makeshift armor worn by marauders across Halcyon was produced by the Hephaestus Mining Company.

## Known employees

## Background

Grandson of the inventor of Mostlyoak trees (which means he acquired naming rights to back in the terraforming days), Mostly worked on Project Gorgon in the Office of Creative Incubation (OCI), due to courting a Spacer's Choice family's daughter at the time, having proofs written out and deeming them as a "mathematically congruent" match. However, the relationship failed, on account of the daughter being unimpressed by Mostly. Owner of teacup Canid, LaPlace.

Franklin Pickett

**Franklin Pickett** is the deceased former director of the Emerald Vale Community Center.

## Background

Pickett was a Halcyon wildlife aficionado who used to tell fantastical stories to the children in Edgewater about the wildlife, not all of them true. While he was in charge of the Emerald Vale Community Center, Pickett was obsessed with acquiring a mantiqueen for the History of Emerald Vale Exhibit. This obsession led to him wasting the community center's budget and delaying the completion of the exhibit.

After a failed attempt to acquire a mantiqueen by Hunters & Trackers Ltd, Pickett went to Monarch to acquire the mantiqueen himself. He arrived shortly before the Hazard Clause came into effect, trapping him on Monarch. After receiving information from Sebastian Adams about the location of a mantiqueen, he headed out into the wilderness to see it for himself. Sebastian's information was accurate but Pickett was eaten by his quarry in the process. Only his journal would be recoverable from the mantiqueen's digestive system.

Herbert Buckwalter

Herbert lured out from his safehouse.

**Herbert Buckwalter** is the only surviving son of Margaret and Howard Buckwalter residing under the bridge in Cascadia.

## Background

Howard, an employee of Rizzo when they pulled out of Cascadia and left their remaining employees to fend for themselves, had the forethought to prepare a safehouse underneath the Cascadia Bridge, where his young son and comatose wife would be safe until she recovered. When moved to the safehouse, Herbert showed no signs of distress from the move and his father predicted that he would have enough supplies to last until his adolescence. By this stage Howard's wounds were getting to a point where they would beginning to smell and to ensure Herbert had constant care, several automechanicals were developed to take over his care.

In the early days within the safehouse, Herbert would practice his letters under his father's insistence,  and would even copy the text from Rizzo product labels.. Eventually, he was allowed to use the Candy Cane and with it planned to make his father proud by capturing a new "*wooly friend*".

When his father finally passed, he acknowledged the lack of movement and silence, however he did not mention this as death. He then hopped to make the "white hat" proud as his "new father".

## Player interactions

* Herbert is always hostile.
* The Stranger can sneak up on Herbert and pickpocket both his armor and the scythe. If engaged in combat after taking his scythe, Herbert will rush towards the player with the scythe, but use a pistol to attack.

## Location(s)

## Log Text

### Part 1

Corporate authorized the name Eridanium Gigasius to describe the lifeform. Once we determine whether the creature is a viable flavoring agent, confection ingredient, or drinkable after fermentation, Rizzo's company branding department will provide a more consumer-friendly name.

The lifeform is a parasite. Dissection reveals an incomplete system of rudimentary internal organs. A half-creature, an unfinished accident of orthogenesis. But how can this be? Eridanos is hostile to all life forms. Parasitism implies a rich biological diversity. I theorize that Eridanium Gigasius is not truly endemic to the Eridanos planet, but was created in the organic waste of the same terraforming system that operates the Atmospheric Complex.

Continuing my investigation. More reports to follow. Happy to be a part of the Rizzo's family.

Dr. Amir Zhao
Team Biologist
Rizzo's Department of Geological Survey & Territorial Expansion

### Part 2

Discovered several fascinating qualities of Eridanium Gigasius.

First, the parasite's internal biology is, for lack of a better term, highly modular. An elaborate system of organelles, nerve endings, blood vessels, and hormone receptors exist inside its flesh. When attached to a suitable host, the parasite behaves like a biological extension! A metaphor: imagine shoving a bypass shunt into a terminal. The shunt is the parasite. The terminal is the host.

Second, the parasite's nervous system houses a string of kernel-like cells capable of receiving and transmitting neurons. What are the implications? Thought-manipulation? Thought-control?

Third, I've noticed an ambient reverberation in the parasite's nervous systems during periods of intense electrical activity in the Eridanos atmosphere. The larger specimens display a greater sensitivity. There is a direct correlation between the complexity of the parasite's nervous system and its size.

Fourth, there seems to be no upper limit to the size of these parasites. I theorize that these caverns may have housed a particularly large specimen.

In accordance with company policy, beginning taste/ingestion test now. May the Law protect my atoms.

Rizzo's Department of Geological Survey & Territorial Expansion

### Part 3

The world is beautiful beyond compare.
I can see colors I never imagined existed.
The sky has a voice and it's singing to me.
I see the truth now. I see everything so clearly. So perfectly.
The storms of Erid a nos are notes in a great cosmic orchestra. The stars are the choir of the universe.
And every word they sing is joy.
I can't seem to stop smiling.
I don't want to stop smiling.
Ever.

Happiness is a Warm Spaceship

This infobox is missing key data, please help the wiki by filling it in.

**Happiness is a Warm Spaceship** is a side quest.

## Synopsis

Help Junlei Tennyson fix the radiator arrays in the maintenance shaft.

## Walkthrough

Speaking to Junlei Tennyson about why the ship seems extraordinarily warm will reveal that Groundbreaker's radiators need replacement parts to prevent them from continuing to dump super-heated air onto the ship. Junlei has been unable to get new parts as the Board is refusing to part with any for a fair price. Offering to assist with the situation will start the quest.

Junlei will tell the Stranger that spare radiator parts can likely be found in the ship's Back Bays - an abandoned area on a lower deck which is now inhabited by crazed outlaws. She asks the Stranger to retrieve the parts by whatever means is necessary, but preferably without violence. If asked, she will also explain that she previously sent an engineer with a small security detail to retrieve the parts but they did not return.

Travel to the Back Bays using the elevator directly opposite Engineering. Upon entering the Back Bays, the Stranger will be confronted by Captain MacRedd, a crazed outlaw leader and self-proclaimed "king". There are some options available, each of which will allow the Stranger to pass through the Back Bays and retrieve the parts:

1. Attack and kill MacRedd and his outlaws.
2. With Persuade 40 or Intimidate 40, MacRedd will ask for tribute in exchange for the parts. Lie 40 can be used to lie about the parts leaking deadly toxins, or he can be bribed with 630 bits.
3. With Felix in your party MacRedd will only need to be bribed.

The spare parts are located on the upper level of the Back Bays.

Return to Junlei to move on to the next step of repairing the radiators. Junlei asks the Stranger to take the elevator at the back of Engineering down to the machinery shaft and activate the terminal they find there. She warns them of a mantipillar infestation and advises that they go armed.

Travel to the machinery shaft. It is populated with mantipillars and hostile automechanicals which must either be defeated or sneaked around to reach the required terminal. Activate the Fluid Circulation Pump Terminal and cycle the droplet pumps to fix the radiators and return the temperature on Groundbreaker to a more comfortable level.

Return and speak to Junlei to complete the quest.

## Bugs

* If you peacefully completed the bounty hunting quest "Who Goes There" before starting this quest, you will not, in some circumstances, get a dialog option with MacRedd to negotiate for the parts, and will be forced to fight.
Greasy

**Greasy** is an Auntie Cleo Food Service Automechanical (model ACSR-F900), operating at Auntie's Kitchen on *Groundbreaker*.

## Background

Greasy is designed to "dispense proteins for [one's] ingestion". It is programmed to simulate shock when accused of being a glorified vending machine. However, its shock simulation subroutine is non-functional, which can be fixed.

Greasy is equipped with anti-tampering subsystems which trigger a self-defense mechanism in the food preparation apparatus. It may have malfunctioned when an Auntie Cleo worker attempted to service it without first deactivating and removing its food preparation equipment, killing the worker in the process.

The **Hazard Clause** is a legal provision that gives the Halcyon Holdings Corporate Board the authority to cordon off any planet or location that it deems dangerous and an infeasible workplace environment. After the Hazard Clause has been issued for a location, all corporations are required to evacuate within 6 months, after which the location is deemed illegal territory and any corporation caught operating in the area will face fines and possible disbarment, as defined in Halcyon Code 22.1.

## Terra 1

The Hazard Clause was most notably issued in relation to operations on Terra 1 on January 12, 2343. Due to the hostile and aggressive nature of the native wildlife, as well as the unsustainability of the moon's natural flora for use in human consumption, the Board enacted a Hazard Clause covering the entirety of Terra 1. Public notice of the clause's issuance was sent to everyone operating on Terra 1 and led to the evacuation of almost all corporations from the moon.

Halcyon News - Chairman Salutes Earth Minister Clarke

**Halcyon News - Chairman Salutes Earth Minister Clarke** is a log.

## Location

It is obtained from examining the article on a coffee table in the Groundbreaker's Stevedore Quarters.

## Log Text

Chairman Rockwell took time out from his busy schedule today to talk to us about Minister Clarke and his impact on the colony.

"Working with Minister Clarke has been truly wonderful these past eight years, " he said. "His predecessor did a fine job, but Clarke's brilliance cannot be overstated. The Early Retirement Program is just the latest in a long line of initiatives he has spearheaded that will ensure Halcyon continues to be the envy of all the outer colonies!"

We couldn't agree more, Mr. Chairman!

**Freddie** is a SubLight contractor.

## Background

Freddie "the Scab" is a freelance salvager for SubLight. Although he often has altercations with fellow SubLight contractor, Trixie, the arguments only last while the pair are "on the job". When off the clock, the pair are a couple who get along quite well.

Freddie's father was also a freelancer for SubLight.

### Related quests

When entering the Sprat Shack bar for the first time, Freddie is in a heated discussion with Trixie over the ownership of a piece of salvage. Talking to either of them, will lead to Lex giving you the task of arbitrating their argument. After listening to both of their statements, you have several options you can take: you can side with Freddie, you can side with Trixie, you can side with neither of them, and, if you have completed the quest to become the VP of SubLight Salvage and Shipping Corporation, you can claim the salvage for SubLight, leaving neither of them with the salvage. If you side with either of them, the other will be upset, but you'll be given the same rewards. If you side with neither of them, they will both be upset. If you claim it for SubLight, they will be more surprised than upset, and won't hold a grudge. You will receive the most rewards by taking this path, which Lex will award you with.

Week One
How long's it been since anyone asked Old Mayberry to tidy up the planters or rake the garden? Mrs. Ollie hasn't shouted for me in ages, and I can't think of the last time Mr. Harvey came around to marvel at his fish.

\*Where is everyone?!\*

Week Two
I've eaten so many beans, and I don't tolerate em in the best of times. But I dare not go into the mansion in search of food. Think of the dust that'd cascade off my unworthy shoulders and onto the fine tile...

Can't go inside. Won't go inside. I don't belong. I'm not of the family.

Week Five?
Out of beans. But I won't trespass. Even if the house \*is\* empty. I'm not of the family. The automechs know. They watch my every move. The cave is where I belong.

Year Two?
Time is a lie. There's no telling how long I've been here, munching on leaves and burying my excrement in the yard. No one's coming for Old Mayberry, loyal Mayberry, faithful Mayberry...

Frey's Journal - The Source

## Log Text

THE WHISPERS HAVE A SOURCE AND I HAVE FOUND IT, FOUND IT!!!!!

I have taken refuge on an orbital relay station. It is smaller than a worker's hovel - barely a few thousand square meters! - but sufficient for my needs. I was able to flee Byzantium with enough bits to purchase supplies to last for decades. It was strange being among common people on the Groundbreaker. The whispers barely stirred at the sight of their ill-fed, scarred, and unwashed bodies. If only there were fewer freighters docking there, bringing real people from Byzantium, I could almost have made a home free of temptation. Free. Free.

As I made this place livable - or as much as it can be - I started hearing the whispers from the relay terminal. They told me to listen to the voices traveling through the aether to reach me. Calling out to me to help them, alone, lonely, NEEDING my help. I found a way to power down the transmitter. No more voices in the aether, and NO MORE WHISPERS! They fell silent, silent, silent!

This was not me! It's not! Not! I am not this foul thing that I have feared for so long. It was the voices in the aether trying to make me hurt others. But I was stronger than they, and I have defeated them. Them. Them!

I have already begun making plans to return to my home. Now that the whispers are defeated, I can resume my life again. I can't wait to return. I miss my family and co-workers so much. Especially Delilah...
