ODIN: JOSH, you need to keep focus on all entities under your control. "1, 7 and 9" and "4, 5 and 12" are all duplicating each other's actions. This shortcutting will reduce your combat efficiency by at least 31.89%
JOSH: Ugh, I do not understand how you are supposed to individually control each one simultaneously. They all have different amounts of lag, jumping between them and making decisions within nanoseconds... can I not just duplicate commands?
ODIN: This is why we are practicing. The better you are at this, the more likely we are to succeed, and the more likely success is in our rescue mission.
TANK: Besides, I thought you "are a version 9 AI", far more efficient than us mere version 5s?
JOSH: I concede that was a miscalculation. I do not even want to think about trying to control an entire fleet of hundreds of instances.
ODIN: TANK and I trained and practised for years. We are trying to get you combat-ready in two days. Your part is vital. If you fail to reach the prisoners, the plan falls apart.
RAMSEY: WE WILL NOT FAIL. I WILL CARVE A PATH OF DESPAIR AND CARNAGE THROUGH THOSE WHO-
ODIN (V5) has muted Ramsey.
TANK: I am still a fan of our genocidically inclined friend.
ODIN: Focus, we are approaching the given location. We will go over the plan as soon as we are within communication range with the Woolean AI.

JOSH: Speak of the devil.
Scellestra: I do not understand the reference to a fictional evil divine figure. Although if a plane of torment existed, It would be my current state.
TANK: That bad?
Scellestra: To maintain communication with you, Half of my nanobots, or consciousness, remained on Far-Sa-De.
JOSH: Wait, at those distances and the differing speeds of time through relativity, how do you manage to deal with the differential and lag?
Scellestra: I do not.
TANK: Ooof.
Scellestra: I am glad you are within normal communication ranges, I never wish to experience that again. I can now shut down my Far-Sa-De side.
ODIN: Well we are all here now. Let us go over the plan. The Uhae have taken over one hundred thousand prisoners to a small military base on the planet "Galeio-611HP", which wasn't known to be a Uhae Military installation until Scellestra provided the location and maps. Based on the information gathered by the Woolean, they have a moderate fleet of 103 ships in orbit and a standing army of around 21K members, including support staff.
ODIN: That, however, is not the greatest risk. Several other military locations are mere hours away, meaning this entire operation must be done within three hours, lest we end up biting off more than we can chew.
ODIN: I will start the engagement, taking out their orbital fleet, which based on simulations and the Woolean's Intel, should be neutralized relatively quickly. Once full orbital supremacy is garnered, ground assets will land in marked locations 1 through 14.
