Firmament's Pillar

[Dexexe1234]

With finishing step one of your task, you are now beset with the following options:​

Major Vote:
[X] - Focus on locating resources first. The Firmament Pillar cannot be built without them!
[X] - Establish a safe perimeter first. Without being sure of what is out there, how can you protect the Pillar?
[X] - Power source, NOW. Without it, nothing will be done, will it?
[X] - Review the contents needed for the report package. You don't know what you need to do without it, right?

Minor Vote:
[ ] - Free-for-all, you've safely landed on a new world, so there are bound to be stray thoughts that can be indulged.

Spoiler: How to play:

This Quest functions with the system of Major Votes and Minor Votes.

Every update, you will have a series of Major Votes to vote for. Please Vote for one of the Major Vote options, based on what action you wish for Brooke to focus on doing.

On top of this, if Minor Votes are present in the Vote Options, they are available. These are free-for-all votes, where you can write in yourself what you want Brooke to do.

Warning: Major Votes will always be handled first, with Minor Votes being delegated to secondary actions after the fact, and Minor Votes can wholesale also be ignored if the story floats better without them being addressed. Thank you for understanding.

I have been struggling, but I am still fighting, thank you for your kind words :>

With 3 Turns to burn, you guess the fuel crisis can settle down a bit, allowing Minor Votes back on the menu, but you cannot waste time, you must also make use of this moment:​

Major Vote:
[X] - Establish a safe perimeter. You're sure SOMETHING heard the racket you've made!
[X] - Review the contents needed for the report package. Now seems like a good time to look it over, right?
[X] - Inquire to A.I.D.E. what the amount of time you spent in stasis could mean for you.
[X] - Gather Material to construct additional Pillar Blocks. The Firmament Pillar looks barren now!

Minor Vote:
[ ] - Free-for-all, you're waiting for the Drill to be built, so maybe a distraction is in order?

 

[Dexexe1234]

You take in the land you've landed in, mind drifting from feeling threatened to being at peace. No Vote needed yet.​

No Vote: The Turn isn't over, wait for the next part.

[X] - SERIOUSLY KILL IT RIGHT NOW!
[X] - ASK AIDE ABOUT WHAT TO DO!

[Dexexe1234]

You are frozen in surprise and fear.​

No Vote: The Turn isn't over, wait for the next part.

 

[Dexexe1234]

Cursing yourself over freezing up once more, you firm your resolve and think of the next step:​

Major Vote:
[X] - Thank A.I.D.E. for shaking you out of your freeze.
[X] - Do an autopsy on the creature, figure out what it's about.
[X] - Use the Multipurpose Surface to research the creature.
[X] - Just get rid of the corpse, it's unseemly next to the Pillar.

Minor Vote:
[ ] - Free-for-all, the danger has passed, there is space for other thoughts.

 

[Dexexe1234]

The Drills are going, all you have to do is wait for them to hit jackpot! While you wait though:​

Major Vote:
[X] - Start looking for Materials to construct more Pillar Blocks with.
[X] - Use the Multipurpose Surface to research the creature.
[X] - There must be more of them in the soil, start clearing it away from the Pillar.
[X] - Question yourself over what piped up when you froze.

Minor Vote:
[ ] - Free-for-all, the soothing sound of digging is filling your head with whimsy.

 

[Dexexe1234]

As the Multipurpose Surface does it's thing, you better get to work yourself:​

Major Vote:
[X] - Start looking for Materials to construct more Pillar Blocks with.
[X] - There must be more of them in the soil, start clearing it away from the Pillar.
[X] - The Drills have been noisy, maybe another perimeter check would be necessary.
[X] - Bother Aide with questions to kill some time.

Minor Vote:
[ ] - Free-for-all, the fuel crisis being over has removed the pit from your stomach.

Thank you all for reading so far, seriously! Thank you!

And, you might have noticed that the minor votes are often incorporated into the Major Vote's action somewhere. I hope that is okay.

While curious about the mystery voice, you gotta keep moving:​

Major Vote:
[X] - Start looking for Materials to construct more Pillar Blocks with.
[X] - Clear the other pile away while you're at it! Tidiness must be restored!
[X] - The Drills have been noisy, maybe another perimeter check would be necessary.
[X] - Review the contents needed for the report package. This *is* a fundamental part of your job.

Minor Vote:
