[“SLOWPOKE TAIL”...what a generic evil team password! But that Grunt really did try to keep it from you for a good reason. Entering it into the keypad grants you access to a small room. Inside, there are several television monitors positioned at different angles, focused on a cage of energy being powered by several Electrodes. Judging by how the energy ripples, there’s something inside that’s been trying to escape for some time, but unless the power source is removed, it’s not likely to make any headway.
There is also another door in here, and the crackling sound can be heard at its loudest behind it. Fortunately, you don’t seem to need a key OR a password to open it. Want to see what’s on the other side?]
[Surprisingly - or perhaps unsurprisingly - what we have behind this door is exactly what you saw on the monitors in the room before: an energy cage powered by Electrodes. For some of you, especially those who attended last year’s out-of-this-world prom, the prisoner might be familiar, but it is far from the creature you encountered on the moon. The ever-shifting nebula of its fur has dulled to a languid and cloudy grey, its body no longer stands proud but puddles at the bottom of the cage in exhaustion, and its voice has been diminished to a weak, paltry growl.
Just how long has Nephelis been in here? What is it doing here? It can’t be good if the poor thing is in such a dismal state, even if you know what it is or not. Surely you won’t leave it to waste away in a weird Rocket basement, will you? But hm, how to best get those Electrodes from pumping the cage full of power…]
