Dar—...? [ he. clearly sounds flustered, but moving on. ] Even if you can handle it, you shouldn't let yourself get hurt.
[ you can practically hear him rubbing at the back of his head. but there's another a pause, and a small "hm." escapes him. ]
This creature wiped out over 20,000 people. That means it's big. But it hasn't attacked us — it's been watching and studying our movements. I took a look at the blood tracks in the empty rooms...it may be large, but its size has to be making up for its mobility. If it's been dormant for so long, it has to be at a disadvantage. If we wait for it, it won't be.
The last time...it won because it came to understand the people on the ship. It knew their weaknesses, their capabilities and who they were...we can't afford to let that happen again. Whatever happens, I want to find it and make sure it doesn't get that chance.
