Your back is screaming, the torn muscles and splintered bones unwilling to be moved. You immediately lie back down.
"If it makes you feel any better, we've found out a lot of information from that guy," says Kristen.

"I guess that's something. What did you discover?"

"Well, first off, that thing was actually...ENTIRELY A ROBOT. It wasn't a cyborg! It was an automaton!"

"...I didn't think that was possible. Do you know who sent it?"

"Jake's been working on some workarounds, and we've found that it's owned by a group called the 'White Lance.' We've already begun negotiations with them, namely explaining your previous relations with the Nest. Things are looking up."

"Ishmael was pretty sure it didn't come from the White Lance, which probably means he doesn't know they have that sort of technology. Anything else?"

"Perhaps you could try...controlling it?" asks Kristen. "Everything's right there, you should be able to."

After several minutes, Vanessa and Luukner haul in the body of the android. It's still eerie when it's sitting lifeless on the floor, though.
"Try it out," says Vanessa.

"I'll give it a shot."
Try entering the cyborg like I would my computer.

You spend several minutes...and you feel the pain of your body disappear.
Your eyes flicker on, systems restarting. You can feel all of your elegant parts working...working to power your heavy frame. This robot was clearly built with attention to human anatomy in mind, it's probably the most human robot you've ever laid eyes on.

Slowly stand up, and try to figure out all my features, making sure everything is working.

You can tell several things were disabled, such as most of your lethal equipment. However, you still have unrestricted access to all equipment intended for subduing and capturing targets. You have heatvision, nightvision, partial cloaking, sedative needles, pepper spray, tasers. You're ready for any human opponent.

"This is great. A lot of the lethal stuff isn't working, but I could pretty easily capture anyone with this thing."

You're surprised to find that you cannot speak! This robot does not have a functional voicebox.
"Um, what? Sorry, Cale, I didn't catch that," says Kristen.
