A story on paper:60

[The Kakama]

60: Ask Slytz if he needs a translator to understand Snarr

60: Do you need a translator to understand Snarr?
Slytz: No, one pair of translators works both ways, it translates what I say into your language, and translates what you want to say into my language.

Then, go to the command room.

Try to turn on the elevator

All of you go into the command room, where Slytz and Traskarz go to the control panels on one side of the room:

Slytz: Ok, I've opened the elevator doors, and the doors to the hangar.

[The Abacus]

Return to the elevator before the Alpan mayhem begins

[Rooster5man]

Ask Slytz for any advice he may have for us before we leave.

[The Kakama]

(Processing command)

[The Abacus]

So begins the procession
*marching band begins marching and playing*

[The Kakama]

Ask Slytz for any advice he may have for us before we leave.

60: Do you have any advice for us before we leave?
Slytz: As far as I know, no. Just don't lag behind or anything like that.
60: Ok, let's go.

Return to the elevator before the Alpan mayhem begins

You return to the elevator, and sure enough, it's open.

The four of you enter:

You feel the elevator move upwards. When it stops, you look outside:

[The Abacus]

What's that? It doesn't look like outside to me

[The Kakama]

What's that? It doesn't look like outside to me

60: What's this? It doesn't look like outside to me.
Slytz: It is, at least outside the metal part of the complex. This is the bottom of a giant pit in the ground, if you like.

[The Abacus]

I presume that this is as high as the elevator goes, so I guess we should advance.

[Rooster5man]

Do we have to crawl out or something? Unless I'm mistaken, it only looks like there's room for someone the size of Snarr.
