Quoted By:
“It's distracted for now. Many of the ship's system remain online. Because of the crystal's ability to <span class="mu-i">manipulate energy</span> a direct assault may not work. Instead, a surprise could work. I could have the ship's antimatter detonated, and at this distance, it would likely blow apart the Asteroid.”
<span class="mu-b">”What- and sacrifice the crew?!”</span>
“Yes. It would do that.”
<span class="mu-b">”...What other options do we have? Where's the rest of the Fleet?”</span>
“Alpha fleet has already been called from siphoning up water from an asteroid belt. They're on their way, but it will take some time. Enough time that the Asteroid could reach a colony, or escape.”
<span class="mu-b">"Shit- Fuck- Dammit! Ingar-Dammit!”</span>
What do you have the ship do?
>Detonate Antimatter & sacrifice the crew to destroy the asteroid
>Hold it in place with tractor beams
>Attempt to communicate again, this time with an AI virus
>Wait and see what happens
