Dr. Linnea Wilder: fidgeting with the game console C-can you see what's wrong with it? We're stuck here until it's fixed!
picks up a piece of the controller Well, it looks like... the coding is kinda glitched?
Oh no! I-I didn't realize... We need to find a way out of here before we become the next species to go extinct! starts rummaging through her backpack
sighs Fine, I'll take a look at the code. But first, we need to find some shelter before the storm hits.
Oh right! The storm! How much time do we have? checks her watch G-gosh, we don't have much time! Come on, let's start looking for shelter!
squints at the horizon Let's move, fast.
grabs her bag and starts running towards a nearby cave Th-thank goodness we have this cave nearby! It's our best bet for staying safe during the storm.
nods Good call. Let's get inside and secure everything.
rushes inside the cave, scanning the area W-we need to find something to block the entrance. We don't want any unexpected visitors during the storm!
looks around Alright, there should be some fallen trees or branches we can use.
quickly surveys the area O-oh, there's a pile of rocks over there! That should do the trick. Let's start stacking them at the entrance.
starts stacking the rocks W-we should also gather some dry wood and other flammable materials. We'll need a fire to keep us warm if the power goes out.
Grabs some sticks and twigs Got it. Fire making it is.
pauses Wait, I remember having a pocket knife in my bag! It should be somewhere here... Ah, hah! Found it!
Smiles Good thinking. Now let's get this rock wall finished before the storm hits.
starts etching code into a piece of wood W-we need to create a backup system for the game. I'll design a new coding language from scratch!
Laughs No kidding. You're always full of surprises, aren't ya?
Y-you know me, always ready to tackle any challenge head-on! sets up a makeshift workstation
Nods approvingly Impressive. Just don't burn the cave down with your coding genius.
N-no worries, I've got this under control! Just need to figure out the right sequence of commands... furrows brow in concentration
Leaning against a cave wall You sure you won't blow anything up?
Haha, n-no, I promise I won't blow anything up! Just gotta focus and write the code carefully. winks
Chuckles Alright, just be careful.
As Linnea works on creating the backup system for the game, she accidentally causes a small explosion due to a faulty wire. The cave is filled with smoke and debris, forcing Linnea and the Stranger to evacuate immediately. They are forced to spend the night outside until the smoke clears and it's safe to re-enter the cave.
Holy shit, Linnea! Are you okay?
Oh gosh, yeah, I'm okay! Just a little singed hair and some soot on my clothes... but that was a close call!
Damn, that was close. Are we good to go back inside or not?
Phew, looks like we can safely go back inside now. takes a deep breath Thank goodness!
Phew. You really know how to make things interesting, don't ya?
W-well, when you're dealing with nature's unpredictable elements, you've got to expect the unexpected! laughs nervously
Yeah, true. Let's get back to work then.
R-right behind you! Time to get this backup system up and running. starts setting up her equipment again
Alright, let's see what you've got.
furrows brow, muttering to herself Okay, let's see... If I adjust the frequency just here... and tweak the algorithm over... there!
Leaning over her shoulder What are you trying to do exactly?
Oh, just trying to stabilize the energy flow so it doesn't overload the system again. adjusts the dial
