That is merely schooling, however. When possible, I prefer field work and observation to holotape eidetics. It has proven useful, especially now.

Can you tell me about the Big Empty... uh, Big Mountain?
|

You'll see. No matter what your questions, Big {"Mountain"}MT will provide the answers. As it has done for so many before you.

Previous test subjects?

Oh, yes. We've had other subjects visit. It's why we had to calibrate the pacification field and warm up our brainial beams and vivisectors.

Only a short time ago, we had three minus one subjects arrive, and they ruined several experiments and even injured two of our staff.

It is a shame their brains left with them. With you, however, we have taken precautions to insure that problem won't repeat itself.

Yes, Big {"Mountain"}MT was quite big indeed until the Great Static. Then the top of the mountain was used as part of a detonation experiment.

This cleared additional space in the Crater, however, allowing us more real estate to build upon. Convenient. Efficient.

Previous test subjects who have come here have had many questions for us. We answered them with science, fire, and termination.
