Giant’s Deep’s core, huh? Ahhh, that was a wild one.

Again, thank you. You can hardly imagine how profoundly happy I am to hear they’re alive and unharmed.

Nope, that was it.

This is the greatest day of my life!

CONOY: I believe I have a solution for that problem! Have you spoken with Ramie and Pye about the technology they’re developing?

Me? That Scout photo you took earlier showed smoke, so I came over to check for fires, remember?

Don’t forget, you have to find both of us, okay?

...Oh, you meant, like, tell you more about it? I gotcha. Well, Giant’s Deep is massive, and mostly water. No surprises there.

...What?

Is that all true?

I found something!

I found a photo of you inside the old radio tower.

Hey, you’re the pilot - you tell me. Aren’t you pilot-types all eager to get up there and explore for yourselves?

I found a hidden slide reel that shows a container marked with a glowing symbol being handed to a shadowy figure. The figure follows a procession of green lights through a forest to a candlelit building, where they carry the container into a secret passage behind a roaring fireplace.

Oh, if you’d like to see something interesting, check out the other Twin once a little more of its sand drains off. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

YARROW: These words are difficult to write: The Sun Station did not work.

...Don’t get me wrong, space is terrifying! But, you know, it has its moments.

ROOT: Of personal note: Remember to give Clary my gratitude when next I visit the Black Hole Forge.

We’re not sure why they opened, since no one actually saw it happen, but this is huge news!

YARROW: Some time has passed since I checked in with you, Pye. How are you and Idaea progressing with the Sun Station plans?

I am going to need to do some serious thinking before I come up with any theories. Maybe I’ll have figured something out by the next time you come by.

...It’s kind of scary how much that sounds like something Slate or Feldspar would do. I’m pretty surprised the Nomai built something that actually broke!

Unfortunately, if there is, I’ve never seen it. Perhaps if I take a closer look at these star charts...

ROOT: Yes, the idea of an encasement that’s supernova-proof, however briefly, has kindled my curiosity!

Is that a Dark Bramble seed?

The star charts! It’s all the star charts’ fault! I didn’t have to know, but no, oh no, I had to update the star charts! I had to go looking for things I shouldn’t have! And now our sun is about to... about to... oh...

Once the shell was finished, the Nomai checked to ensure there were no longer any physical entrances or cracks.

Charting stars again out by the radio tower — they’re so bright out here! I only wish I were able to record them faster. Admittedly, I could use more patience. I get so engrossed in my work that sunrise becomes an unwelcome deadline, and daylight a grating slog.

To explore the sixth location, the shrine on the Quantum Moon must be on the moon’s north pole.

CYCAD: Isn’t this the ore for the remaining towers being built on Ash Twin? The completed towers I’ve seen are quite large!

CLARY: And before anyone comments, yes, I am aware this reduces the distance between Yarrow and me.

SOLANUM: Me LAEVI: Me ILEX: I was ILEX: Me again LAMI: Me! SOLANUM: Me SOLANUM: Me

Um, in that the ship went down, and I didn’t sustain bodily harm. A few minor repairs, and it’s like the ship never even hit those rocks!

So where did they live? Not on the surface, clearly. Ember Twin is full of cave systems, though - maybe the answer lies underground?

SOLANUM: Is this your first time on the Quantum Moon? It’s my first time here.

The Eye is older than the universe itself. How could something exist before its creator?

281,042 YEARS AGO: No user commands received for 10 minutes. All systems entering sleep.

We only get so much time, don’t we? Ah, there was still more I wanted to do...

It just takes a su-u-u-per long time to go away.

I believe we’ve reached the end of our journey.

Well, what are any of us doing here, really?

This is good weather for your launch, right? That’s lucky!

When we first started Outer Wilds, travelers used to bring their ships here all the time for repairs. Our spacefaring technology has improved loads since then, but the older ships tended to, uh, fall apart a lot. Like, more than they do now.

RAMIE: The Vessel’s warp core is broken, at best (recall those present when the Vessel crashed said it sustained lethal injuries). There is no guaranteed reward for this risk.

CLARY: I fear our situation may be dire:

The Quantum Moon travels to a total of five locations.

Not yet.

Did you figure out why?

Wasted, you understand?!

PLUME: Was the Vessel unwell in some way?
