Hello its Ricardo and welcome back to elite dangerous beyond now we've seen
generation ships before and they've been derelict there's always been something
wrong a disaster has been incurred but now what has been found the Golconda
the GOLCONDA is like any other generation ship but this time the people
on board are alive everybody they're alive
now just see this one day you need to get yourself up to the a panic list
system now it's not too far out of the way of the bubble I got there in about
6-7 jumps with my cutter so get yourself a decent ship and go exploring it's
gonna be a great thing to see and behold now this video does include the logs and
the logs do talk about the inhabitants of the ship having a medical emergency
and they're reaching out for her for help in addition to this as well they're
also having machinery breakdowns they need new technologies brought to them
this could be the start of a new in-game initiative by frontier but we've all
been here before so like I say we're gonna go and start playing the logs in
the moment if you want to go and visit it yourself and experience the logs for
yourself then this is the spoiler alert if you haven't done so though do me a
favor hit that subscribe button no not the subscribe button or look at that
notification icon as well and I'll let you know when I'm putting more videos of
elite dangerous and other games on YouTube so here come the logs of this
inhabited sealed-off colony ship the Golconda
this is captain Jonathan Forrester the Golconda colony needs your help I don't
know how else to say it so anybody hearing this this is what's
happening we have a full colony of people on board this vessel that's tens
of thousands of people and until recently we've been entirely
self-sufficient but supplies are starting to run low more specifically
you were lacking a lot of technical components air filters water recyclers
circuit boards things like that it's getting harder to patch this equipment
up every year there's only so long we can make do what we have and the other
thing and this is the real kicker is that there's a disease going around
which is knocking us sideways flu-like symptoms but much more serious
people are dying we're trapping as best as we can but our medical supplies are
running low and if this turns into a full-blown epidemic then we're gonna be
in real big trouble so I make the decision to reach out to you whoever you
are hopefully the techs have done enough for
us it don't speed things up it's far out but the others really weren't sure if I
should be doing this because people here don't want interference from outsiders
but I don't want to worry them likes blaming the reality of our situation
they're good people I don't want them to be scared so here I am recording a call
for help trust me I wouldn't be asking if I
didn't need to I feel like I don't really know how to
do this I hope you understand it's been a while captain Jonathan Forester
signing off
this is dr. Shay attendez captain Forester has asked me to
summarize the situation on board the Golconda particularly in regards to a
recent outbreak of disease I must preface this by saying that any
attempt to summarize the situation feels inadequate there's so much to say about
the symptoms the development of our detection methods and existing treatment
philosophies nevertheless I will attempt to speak concisely for the purpose of
this broadcast the disease known colloquially among the people as the
wasting kiss is a mutated strain of viral nasopharyngitis one of the
drawbacks of living in an atmospheric ly self-contained structure for hundreds of
years is that illness tends to linger we can't very well sterilize a ship of
this size and with each generation these illnesses adapt to remain virulent this
one particularly so antiviral treatments aren't particularly effective merely
delaying the disease's progress we have confirmed six deaths in the past month
attributable to the disease our medical supplies are somewhat limited adequate
for maintaining health and the occasional serious illness or accident
in the event of a full outbreak with hundreds of patients requiring treatment
we may be forced to resort to measures such as full quarantine and isolation
when the captain first suggested opening communication with outsiders I must
confess to a certain hesitation on reflection it would seem the logical
decision for the well-being of the crew one can only imagine what pharmaceutical
advancements have been made over the last millennia the possibilities are
fascinating
Rick Blanchard security chief of the ball Conda first things first the safety
and protection of the people aboard the ship is my primary objective during my
tenure we've reduced the rate of crime aboard this vessel by 32% violent crime
is rare and there hasn't been a murder in over six years my team are
well-trained and do the ship proud and how they address the very specific
demands of the Golconda you might think an isolated spacefaring colony of
thousands with no horizons seasons or other planetary benefits would have gone
mad and initiated some kind of mass tragedy well not on my watch which is
why I need to be clear in my opposition to the captain's decision to send out a
distress call humanity doesn't enjoy a stellar record of respecting the rights
and well-being of indigenous communities hell we don't know what humanity is
anymore past the confines of this thousand-year Hall the risks outweigh
the advantages I'll follow the captain's order because he's not led us down yet
got a good mind that one but I'm asking whoever hears this
message to understand that we're looking for a trade of goods and resources only
communication with the general populace of the Golconda is forbidden messages
regarding developments outside of the Golconda is forbidden the right contact
between outsiders and Golconda colonists during an exchange of cargo is forbidden
we've always dealt with hard times ourselves if it were my call we deal
with this by ourselves too
this is Erin gray of the Golconda it's my responsibility as custodians who
manage the needs of our people and ensure that everyone is fairly
represented I'm recording this message to satisfy the curiosity of anyone who
may respond to our distress signal I suppose truth be told I'm I'm not sure
what to say we're more than just a colony he said we're we're family
whenever challenge is put in front of us we resolve it together when success is
achieved we celebrate collectively we we have it's hard to put into words
our ancestors chose to remain on this vessel centuries ago and leave our
original destination behind they did so because they had grown to love what they
had achieved logs from that period show their anxiety at the prospect of leaving
the Golconda the generation steps were designed to keep colonists healthy happy
and entertained and somewhere in our journey we came to feel love to
and yet all things must come to an end sickness is rife and supplies alone
after so long fending for ourselves the time has come to seek assistance from a
civilization we we no longer know the captain believes that humanity has a
heart and will come to our aid if you're listening to this message
we're probably gonna find out if he's right soon enough samus Cobb chaplain
I serve the Golconda and the gold Condor embraces me long ago I would have been
called a priest somebody authorized to provide guidance
according to the rules of religion that's the role my predecessors
fulfilled at least eventually the old texts were set aside in favor of a less
rigid spiritual philosophy being able to view the entire nebula over breakfast
inclines one towards the contemplative there are a few things more reformative
than a sense of complete insignificance now my role is to show my brothers and
sisters that we are all important each of us has a role to play
we cannot concern ourselves with the scale of the stage all we can do is
deliver the best performance we can each person aboard the Golconda can trace
their heritage from the first inhabitants to the current day in the
present we contemplate the spirit and soul allowing the voices of the past to
inform our future our respect for them combined with our belief in each other
creates a community of hope and here we are
over a thousand years later about to reach out a hand and hope that humanity
accepts it what lies in store for us I wonder what lessons have been learned
from history while I am nervous at the thought of outside assistance I must
admit the question intrigues me did we become
perhaps one of the best stories I've seen for a long time especially the
generation ship as well they were all really dark with this one but he does
paint a good picture thanks for watching see you soon
