So You've Been Eaten. - En

So you?ve been eaten. Don?t worry this is simply an occupational hazard. In fact it is fairly common among Deep Space Miners (5th class) and some say that it is almost unavoidable. And well it is. Especially since the crystals that you seek happen to be inside giant space beasts. To mine them you need to well be eaten. But no reason to panic we are here to help you deal with the physical and mental challenges of being eaten. This handy simulation / survival guide is standard issue for all recruits and will eventually lead to a productive if not potentially brief career in space mining. Should you achieve your objective and mine enough crystals to meet your quota it is then cost-effective for the company to activate your jet pack and extricate you from the proverbial belly of the beast. While the beast?s immune response was not enough to prevent its demise its contribution to human progress and corporate profitability are most definitely appreciated. In the eventuality that the bacteria present in the beast overwhelm you and you are digested do not worry. Your non-organic parts will ultimately provide much utility to future space miners. In fact you may encounter some such pieces of equipment in your expedition remains of attempts by evidently less-than-qualified recruits. Finally it could transpire that you do not collect the necessary crystals by the time you reach the end of the beast?s digestive tract. In this case the so-called ?ending #2? you will then exit the beast from the other end than the one you entered. Alive and yet forever changed. In this case and after a thorough decontamination and quarantine period we will have to evaluate your performance versus that of the beast?s efforts to consume you. In So You?ve Been Eaten. the Miner and the Beast will face off against one another. The Miner earns points by collecting Crystals and the Beast earns points by developing Immune Responses and by its Bacteria attacking the Miner.
