• Roky: "Glinty. You know the legend of Yareli, yeah? The Waverider? Inspo for k-driving. Total legend. Anyway. You won't believe what I got me hands on. I need your help. I did something stupid. Boon's gonna be livid. Givin' this one last shot, then I'll meet you in the vents. Tell you and Boon everything. Chek chek? Chek, chek."  (download, history)

Visit Roky in Fortuna[]

• What happened?
  • Boon: "We found her crashed hard at the base of the Harindi Gap. Board in bits. If her neruo-conduit stays dark... she won't wake up. Only Nef's Augmentors got the skill to replug a neuro. And there ain't no hope of his help. Ah, sis, what were you doing?? We found this Graphica on her. No idea what it is. Locked it is. Can't read a lick of it."  (download, history)

• Boon: "Glinty! You unlocked the cover. That... that's Yareli. Roky loved, loves Yareli. This is the first Waverider Graphica ever! This... this is priceless. To us anyway. The other pages... They're unlocked... by performing... feats? That what Roky trying to do out there? Unlock this thing?"  (download, history)
• Boon: "When I was just a sprog, I smashed meself up something awful. Near ripped the servos clean out of me knees. Wasn't expected to heal. But Roky stayed there by me cot, tellin' stories of the Waverider. Some traditional, some I'm pretty sure she made up. Don't think I'd be here today if it weren't for her and her daft Yareli stories. Those feats, they're not for us; they're for someone like you, Glinty. Help me, give me a story to tell her? A good one."  (download, history)

Roky must've wanted us all to have it. She was always the storyteller of the fam. Keep cracking those pages, Glinty."  (download, history)

Your reward is waiting, child. My buyer is eager, and what she offers is with more than mere credits to me."  (download, history)
• Boon: "Shammin' mucker! My sis was never in his pocket! Yareli's our fam, and Roky wouldn't sell her - especially not to the likes of him! Sis, don't matter how you got that Graphica to the sumps with Nef. Roky, we stand by you. But... how did you get it?"  (download, history)

Logical."  (download, history)

Return to Fortuna[]

• Nef Anyo: "Deal's off. Something's spooked my buyer, and now I'm stuck with a useless Graphica I can't sell! Fortunately for me, the same buyer was interested in purchasing a controlling share of the rental rights to your vents. You piss-rats are her problem now. And... as for your broken little friend? Might I suggest selling her parts for salvage? You'll need the credits to pay your new landlady."  (download, history)

• Boon: "Chekkit! Her conduit's lightin' up! Roky's awake."  (download, history)

• Roky's awake!
  • Roky: "Boon? Had wild dreams, fam. Wiped out... Then... Yareli was there. She took me all across the Vallis. Boon. There's something I gotta tell you-"  (download, history)
• Boon: "It's done. Me and Glinty, we stuffed Nef's deal. I sussed out exactly who his mystery buyer on Deimos was. Big Granny Blue was so happy to get a copy of Waverider 1 that she sent back some weird elixir for you, Roky. Sparked your neuro conduit back to life in seconds, it did! And guess what, she owns the vents now. We never have to worry about being turfed out of here ever again, Hah hah! Now prepare y'self, Sis. The Fam's got together and bashed you a new plank. Yeah, took 'em a minute... but those cheese brains realized you was just trying to keep us all away from Nef and his 'deals'. Fam's lucky to have ya, sis. You too, Glinty. You're straight logical."  (download, history)
